Description: Follow along with this video for a full-body flexibility training. Goal: 10 second holds, 5 reps per move
Description: Begin in a reverse plank position with your fingers pointing towards your toes. You will then squeeze your core and compress your body into the V-stand. The goal here is the compression moment needed for V-stand so get shoulders in front of hips as far as you can go.
Goal: 2 rounds of 5 reps
Description: This move starts by laying on your back holding a light-weight object. You will then contract your core to lift your legs and arms together bringing the light-weight object from your hand to your feet, returning to lying flat before again repeating the movement to transfer the light-weight object back to your hands. Passing the light-weight object from hand to feet then feet to hands is 1 rep.
*Focus to reach your hands to feet each attempt keeping the legs fully straight.
Goal: 2 Rounds, 10 reps per round.
Description: Begin in a plank on your hands. Step your feet one at a time until the are next to your hands as the video shows. Lower your booty into a deep squat. Step your legs back into a plank.
Goal: 2 rounds of 8 reps
Description: Begin with your arms out infront of you to assist with counterbalancing. Balance on one leg with your other leg held out in front of you. Slowly lower yourself via pistol squat to a raised surface of appropriate height (edge of bed, couch arm, couch seat). No falls or flops so make sure the raised surface is the right height for you.
Goal: 2 rounds of 8 reps each leg
Description: Start in a push-up position with your hands turned at least 90 degrees to the side (if not more to face backwards.) Hands should be positioned so that as you dip down on the push-up your hands are level with your stomach. Hold your core active throughout push-ups to support spine and encourage gluteal activation. *Keep elbows close to side as much as possible to maximize triceps engagement.
Goal: 2 rounds of 10 reps per round.
Description: This move starts on your hands and feet. Elbows stay straight with your knees on the back of your upper arms. While keeping your elbows straight, weight shift forward over your wrists until you can bring your feet up off the floor.
Goal: 2 rounds of 10 reps.
Description: Begin on your hands and knees. Tighten your core. Keep your knee bent to 90 degrees as you extend your hip. The bottom of your foot should raise like it is going to touch the ceiling. Make sure to not let your knee extend or your hamstring will take over.
Goal: 2 rounds of 8 reps each leg.
Description: Start standing with hands on a surface waist height or higher. Then walk feet backwards and bend at hips to allow the shoulders to open.
Goal: 10 sec holds x 5 reps

Description: Follow the video for a deep stretch and hip opening squat.
Goal: 2 rounds of 8 reps.
Description: This move starts by placing your hands on the ground flat in front of you slightly wider than your shoulders. You will then bring your feet close to your hands to allow your inner thigh near your knees to lean against your elbows. From there you will lean forward to lessen weight on your feet until you can lift BOTH FEET up off the ground.
Goal: 2 rounds of 5 reps holding as long as you can (goal is to eventually hold steady for 45 seconds)
Extra Notes: Put a pillow down by your head for if/when you lose your balance forwards 🙂
Description: Begin in a tall plank position with a hollowback. Without picking up your feet (socks on a tile/wood floor is perfect), use your core to pull your knees between your arms and to your chest. Then push out back into a tall plank. Keep a hollowbody the entire time. The faster you goal, the more cardio benefit you get.
Goal: 2 rounds of 15 reps
Description: This move begins with lifting yourself into a pull-up position by using a box or step of some kind. You will focus on control lowering yourself back into the full hang. Use the step to hop back up into a pull-up position again.
Goal: 2 rounds of 10 negatives with at least 5 second lowering

Goal: 2 rounds of 3 taps each hand.
