Here are 10 ways to get your workout in the au natural way…… ### 1. Swimming ![Bawah-reserve-medium-res-5961](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Bawah-reserve-medium-res-5961.jpg?width=8256&name=Bawah-reserve-medium-res-5961.jpg) It’s perhaps the most obvious exercise when on an island. With 3 lagoons and 6 islands, a swim is a great way to explore the Reserve and benefit your health, too. Increase your heart rate, tone your muscles and build strength and endurance without stressing your body. Dip into the sea, our infinity pool – or both. ### 2. Kayaking ![Bawah-preview-0009-2](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Bawah-preview-0009-2.jpg?width=670&name=Bawah-preview-0009-2.jpg) Did you know that just one hour of kayaking can burn over 350 calories? Kayaking builds muscle strength in so many more areas than just the arms; in fact, over 16 muscle groups get a workout when you take to the water with a kayak. Choose from single or twin kayaks, or book one of our transparent kayaks to watch the underwater marine life as you glide by. ### 3. Stand up Paddleboarding ![travelalittleluxe-13 SUP stand up paddleboard](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Activities/travelalittleluxe-13%20SUP%20stand%20up%20paddleboard.jpg?width=670&name=travelalittleluxe-13%20SUP%20stand%20up%20paddleboard.jpg) It might look like you’re just standing, but SUPing silently uses muscles throughout your entire body to keep you balanced on the board. From your core to tiny muscles around the bones in your feet, it’s a full body workout. A one-hour session burns around 500 calories – just enough to clear breakfast and make room for lunch. Read more about the benefits of SUP here: [https://blog.bawahreserve.com/10-reasons-to-stand-up-paddleboard](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/10-reasons-to-stand-up-paddleboard?hsLang=en) ### 4. Sailing ![DJI_0484 (1)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/DJI_0484%20(1).jpg?width=2380&name=DJI_0484%20(1).jpg) Yes, sailing can be a good workout. It’s a sport that affects many aspects of your physical fitness, from core strength, pulling on lines and manoeuvring the rudder to overall muscle endurance from placing your boat into and out of the water. ### 5. & 6. Scuba diving and Snorkelling ![072A8905](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/072A8905.jpg?width=3000&name=072A8905.jpg) Whilst you might think of these as fun activities to do on holiday, they are both indeed forms of low-impact exercise which put your whole body to the test. From fins that tone the legs to lifting heavy equipment, this is a great way to get moving, explore the sea and have a thoroughly enjoyable time. ### 7. Running   It’s simple – and still one of the best ways to stay in shape and improve your mood. The walkway from one end of Bawah to the other, including the jetty, is 1 kilometre, so you’ll have no problem getting your morning 5K in. For added intensity, run on the beach; the resistance from the sand can surprise even the most avid of runners. ### 8. Hiking ![FullSizeRender (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FullSizeRender%20(2).jpg?width=3024&name=FullSizeRender%20(2).jpg) With five different hiking routes available on Bawah’s main island, you can hike to different lookout points on each morning of your stay. It’s worth an early start to catch the staggeringly beautiful sunrise views. The uneven terrain of the trails and the health benefits of nature make this a great workout for the body and mind. ### 9. Stair Climbing ![DSC01670 (1)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/DSC01670%20(1).jpg?width=670&name=DSC01670%20(1).jpg) Stairs are a great cardio workout. With 80 stairs up to Treetops restaurant, it’s the perfect stairway to fitness.  Rise early to run them multiple times, or take them two stairs at a time to increase the intensity of your workout. ### 10. Movement classes ![Bawah-reserve-medium-res-4727](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Bawah-reserve-medium-res-4727.jpg?width=1981&name=Bawah-reserve-medium-res-4727.jpg) Grab a mat and roll it out on your verandah or on the soft sand at the beach. Whether you follow your own practice or want to take part in a scheduled class, there is no shortage of great outdoor locations to increase your flexibility, strengthen your body and relax your mind.     [![Start Your Journey](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/5414923/f42b5de5-7dd7-4651-bd0f-939bf49f5e45.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/5414923/f42b5de5-7dd7-4651-bd0f-939bf49f5e45)   - Share - - - [mailto:?subject=[SUBJECT]&body=Check%20out%20this%20site%20https://blog.bawahreserve.com/naturally-fit](mailto:?subject=[SUBJECT]&body=Check%20out%20this%20site%20https://blog.bawahreserve.com/naturally-fit) - [Previous](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/how-to-get-to-bawah-reserve-indonesia?hsLang=en) [![](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hubfs/Blog%20Images/seaplane_propellar_above_setigi_reef_from_seaplane_window%20(2).jpg)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/how-to-get-to-bawah-reserve-indonesia?hsLang=en) - [Next](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/10-reasons-to-stand-up-paddleboard?hsLang=en) [![](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/hubfs/Activities/Bawah-reserve-medium-res-2743%20SUP%20stand%20up%20paddleboard.jpg)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/10-reasons-to-stand-up-paddleboard?hsLang=en) ### About the author ### AUTHOR [Bawah Reserve](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/author/bawah-reserve) Content Title Description < Previous page Next page > ### CATEGORIES - [Resort (60)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/resort) - [Sustainability (45)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/sustainability) - [Wellbeing (45)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/wellbeing) - [Experiences (28)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/experiences) - [Travel Essentials (25)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/travel-essentials) - [Food and Drink (17)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/food-and-drink) - [Recipes (14)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/recipes) - [Diving (10)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/diving) - [Honeymoon (7)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/honeymoon) - [Christmas and New Year (6)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/christmas-and-new-year) - [Weddings (6)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/weddings) - [Activities (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/activities) - [Families (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/families) - [Group Travel (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/group-travel) - [Marriage Proposal (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/marriage-proposal) - [romance (1)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/romance) See all ### Tags - [Resort (60)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/resort) - [Sustainability (45)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/sustainability) - [Wellbeing (45)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/wellbeing) - [Experiences (28)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/experiences) - [Travel Essentials (25)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/travel-essentials) - [Food and Drink (17)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/food-and-drink) - [Recipes (14)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/recipes) - [Diving (10)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/diving) - [Honeymoon (7)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/honeymoon) - [Christmas and New Year (6)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/christmas-and-new-year) - [Weddings (6)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/weddings) - [Activities (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/activities) - [Families (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/families) - [Group Travel (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/group-travel) - [Marriage Proposal (2)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/marriage-proposal) - [romance (1)](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/romance) See all Experience true wellbeing at bawah reserve [![LEARN MORE](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/5414923/a4139ddd-711b-4792-bfda-72bd000003da.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/5414923/a4139ddd-711b-4792-bfda-72bd000003da) ### you may also like [Wellbeing](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/tag/wellbeing) [View Post](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/the-art-of-doing-nothing-slow-travel-at-bawah-reserve?hsLang=en) 9 min ## [The Art of Doing Nothing: Slow Travel at Bawah Reserve](https://blog.bawahreserve.com/the-art-of-doing-nothing-slow-travel-at-bawah-reserve?hsLang=en) At some point in the past decade or two, the travel industry discovered that 'wellness'...
