Benefits of Running on Sand
Running on Sand has many benefits, growing bigger leg muscles and burning calories faster are just some of the reasons why people run on sand. Burn More Calories Because sand absorbs most of the energy applied to it, you have to work much harder to make any headway. However, applying that extra effort as your feet sink into the sand does result in more calories being burned. Running on sand requires 1.6 times more energy than running on a firm surface and up to 2.7 times more energy than walking on a hard surface. Lower Risk of Impact Injury Restricting your running routine exclusively to pavements and treadmills can increase the risk of impact injury as your feet and joints rebound off the hard surface. This can often lead to ankle, shin and knee injuries. Due to the benefits of Beach Training, FC Barcelona have incorporated it into the club's pre-season programme. |  World Player of the Year - Lionel Messi during FC Barcelona pre-season Beach Training  |
