DAY 1

FLEXIBILITY WARM-UP

Holding that core active, you will slide your feet forward and wide into a wide squat position allowing your knees to bend and hips to open. You will then contract your glutes to return to the plank position being sure that you core doesn’t sag at any point.

Goal: 3 rounds of 10 reps
