1. Do a bunch of push-ups – Before walking out to the beach, you'll want to go into your hotel room's bathroom or find an empty room in your condo and bang out a whole mess of push-ups. Whole mess here is relative. If you're looking to get a beach body in 10 minutes, you probably can't do too many more than 10 pushups. Either way: do them.

BOOM! Look at you now all pumped up! Do five more for good measure. Okay, two more.

Now … HURRY! Get down to the beach and get your shirt off before you stop being cut! Time's-a-wasting, tubby!

2. Breathe in … suck in those abs … and now hold it … all day. From the minute you take off your shirt to show off the ripped chest and arms your pushups created until when you put your shirt back on and leave the beach, you'll have to hold your breath. Sorry. Oh. One side note: be careful if you pass out. Your arms are probably exhausted from the 12 pushups and will be too weak to help you break your fall.

3. Never sit down – Even people who are in shape have little rolls of skin that billow out over the top of their shorts when they sit down. If you sit down, your roll of skin will be a flesh tidal wave, laying waste to the eyes of everyone near you.
