EXercises

Warm-up Exercises:
​
  • Arm Circles or Swings: Hold arms outstretched from shoulders and turn in small circles, then increase the size of the circles. Or swing arms forward and back from the shoulder.
  • Jumping Jacks: Begin by standing with your legs straight and your arms to your sides. Jump up and spread your feet beyond hip-width apart while bringing your arms above your head, nearly touching. Jump again, lowering your arms and bringing your legs together. Return to your starting position.
  • Line Jumps: Feet together jumping from side to side.
  • Bicycle Jumps: One foot in front of the other going back and forth.
  • Mountain climbers: Performed from a plank position, you'll alternate bringing one knee to your chest, then back out again, speeding up each time until you're "running" against the floor.
  • Push-ups: Get down on all fours, placing your hands slightly wider than shoulders. Make sure to straighten your arms and legs. Lower your body until your chest nearly touches the floor. Then push yourself back up. Repeat.
  • Sit-ups: Lie down on your back. Bend your legs and place feet to stabilize your lower body. Cross your hands across your chest or place behind your ears. Curl upper body up towards knees. Repeat.
​
*Count to 10 for each warm up exercise. Once completed then start physical activity.
