What to Do

Completed

Tuck Jumps (3 X 15) Remember to bring your knees up towards your tummy!  Keep your feet away from your tush

 

Candlestick Straight Jumps (3 X 10) Roll down to a candlestick shape (balancing on your upper back and shoulders, tush off the ground and straight legs, feet should reach vertical towards the ceiling) then roll up to a standing position and immediately do a straight jump; repeat

 

Splits (2 minutes each leg)

 

Push Ups (2 X 10 each way) This week do your push ups from your knees really focusing on your body shape and trying to go all the way to the floor and touch your nose.  Do 2 sets with hands in regular position shoulder width apart and the other 2 sets with your hands in a diamond or triangle shape.  If they are really easy for you come up off your knees in the traditional push up position.

 

Open Tuck or Hollow Hold (5 X 15 sec) Open tuck is done balancing on your tush and lower back in an “open tuck position” hollow hold is more advanced, still balancing on your tush and lower back but in a “hollow hold” meaning legs out straight about 2 in above the floor.  In either shape try and maintain contact with your lower back and the floor, try not to grab your legs.
