Goal: 3 rounds of 5 body rolls x 10 second holds
Description: Start with hands flat on the floor. Walk feet near hands and lean knees against bent elbows. Lean forward to increase weight on hands then lift the legs to balance. Maintain that forward lean with hips stacked over your hands and shoulders and then lift 1 leg up off the elbows and return with control.
Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps per leg
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: 4 reps per side x 15 second holds
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.

Description: This move starts by standing with your feet slightly separated. Keep your knees straight, do a body roll until your hands touch the floor. Walk your hands out to a tall plank position.

Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps

Goal: 3 rounds of 10 reps each leg

Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps each side
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.

Then with the other arm you will reach behind your back for the towel. Work your hands towards each other using the towel as a guide to bring them closer together. Use the upper hand to pull the towel slightly up to give an extra stretch to the lower hand behind your back.

Description: Use your core to hold your knees up to your chest. Push through your arms to lift your hips up off the floor.

Goal: 3 rounds of 3-5 reps.
Extra Notes: Give yourself time between reps so you don’t get a headache or dizzy. Your body will get more use to inverting with practice.
Description: Hanging on a pull-up bar or equivalent surface, use your core to lift your legs into a crunch, knees to chest. You will then use your core and shoulders to rotate your knees from one side to another.
Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps each direction
