Listen "Exercise on Board"
Episode Synopsis
Exercising on board is fraught with questions, most having to do with equipment and space. You don't have to take your entire personal gym with you when you move aboard, though there are some space-saving alternatives you may not have considered. Mostly, though, it's about using what you have and believing you can. Nica Waters, who cruises on a 29-foot Bristol Channel Cutter, offers plenty of options that don't take much space for gear or the actual workout. Special equipment mentioned in the show (links are to Amazon except for Beachbody): Selecttech "dial a weights" Resistance bands with UV/chafe protection Foam roller Lacrosse ball Balance board Beachbody on demand streaming workouts: (please contact Nica as she is a coach and would love to help you with this!)
