Ship Shape #6

Sorry, I’ve dropped the ball on this weekly ship shape post. I’ve found that when we are anchored somewhere that we can go to shore and be active, my posts would be on a full workout and not just one pose. Maybe I’ll start posting clips of my yoga routine or something, but for now here is a snippet of another core exercise that you can hopefully find space to do in your galley or main cabin area.

For this weeks ship shape try doing BOAT Pose. Maybe start with knees bent and hold for 30 seconds. Take a 15 second break and go at it again. Do this three times. As you get stronger, hold for 45 seconds and then maybe 60 seconds. Also work on going from bent legs to straight legs. Don’t forget to smile while you are doing this! 🙂
 

  
Maybe take the knife off the counter before doing this underway. Yikes!

ship shape post #2

“Walk the Plank” posting from Punta de Mita (Puerto Vallarta)

Plank pose offers a full body strengthening workout. Primarily targets the core muscles, but also work your arms, thighs, gluts.

To add an extra element, place a child on your back.

Hope you enjoyed last weeks post. Stay tuned for next weeks!
