Exercise Descriptions
Place sandbag on upper back by holding onto its handles over your shoulders. From standing position take a big step to the side while simultaneously bending torso and bringing upper body down low as if ducking under something. Place your weight on the foot taking the big step to side and bring your other foot in so that you are standing a wide step away from where you started and when your foot comes in bring your body back up to standing. This is one rep. On the following rep take a big step and duck back to your original start position and then continue ducking low and stepping from side to side.
Start in pike position with wide legs, head low, bend elbows and swoop head close to but not touching floor, as head goes through arms it starts coming up at the end to a cobra position but keeping torso off the ground, hold and then swoop back in the same manner back to starting position.
YFrom standing, jump legs out and squat down simultaneously touching ground with fingers while in squat, then jump feet back in and stand up.
From plank position jump feet from center to the left, then back to center and then to the right, and continue. Each hop is one rep
Jump sideways across an imaginary border and land on the outside leg, try not to let the inside leg touch the ground. As soon as you land with outer leg, lift inner leg and kick towards the side you just jumped from as high as you can, bring leg down and still not touching ground jump back to the other side and repeat.
Standing at one end of mat, roll back so knees are overhead and then forward again. Place hands on ground and jump (or step) your legs back to plank position and do a push up, then jump (or step) your legs in towards hands. This is one rep. Continue right back into another roll back and repeating the same movements.
Have a great workout!
