warm-up & pushups
I begin by turning right (east) out of the Wrightsville Beach Museum parking lot to warm up with a slow jog to the first bench. There I do
Decline Pushups with my feet on the bench and hands on the ground, 10 with both feet, 10 with my right leg up, 10 with my left leg up, 30 total.
shoulder press & hip raises
Or I do Shoulder Presses (alternate version) with bent waist and crown of head toward the ground, 2 sets of 5. I then jog to the backless bench
(marked M2) just over Kenan Creek where I do Hip Raises with alternating legs 20 raises (a left and a right is one rep).

I also do Mule Kicks with my hands on top of the bench, 20 total. From there I walk or jog east across the Salisbury Street Bridge to Greensboro
Street Park. Here I do a number of exercises including The Crow (right), on the balance (surf) board, 20- to 30-second hold (or as long as you can).
