Strengthening Yoga Sequence for a Year-Round Beach Body

Keep your summer beach body all winter long with these yoga poses.

The holiday season is here, and with it comes food. Lots and lots of food. It can be easy to eat poorly and spend less time at the gym this time of year, which leads to putting on a few extra pounds. This year, don’t let that bikini body you worked hard all summer for disappear! Yoga can be used to maintain that beach body all year round.

The below yoga flow will help you to save your awesome summer body by keeping your butt, thighs, abs and upper body nice and toned. Incorporate these poses into your daily yoga sequence.
