Exercise Descriptions
From Pike position, jump both feet up towards hands to the right side and then back, then jump both feet together up to the left side and back, then on 3rd jump, jump legs up but split, so right foot to right side and left foot to left side and then back. 3 jumps is one rep.
Get into push up position and do 5 plank jacks, jumping both legs out and then both legs in 5 times, and then do a push up. This is one rep. Continue doing as many reps as possible in time period.
Jersey Turnpike (aka Frog Squat Booty Raises)
From standing with legs wider than shoulder width and feet pointing out 45 degrees, bend over at waist and place hands between the front (toe) part of feet, squat down so hips and butt are as low as you can go close to ground. This is your start position. Now keeping hands on the floor at all times, straighten your legs bringing your butt up and when you get legs as straight and butt as high as possible, fingertips always touching ground, then lower back down to start position. This is one rep, continue bringing butt up and down, straightening and bending legs into deep squat.
Lay on mat with knees bent and feet on ground with arms beside you. Then sit up, bending one leg under you and put other foot on ground, using the strength of that leg lift yourself up – try to not use hands for support, and get up to standing. Then reverse movement to lie down again and continue repeating these movements. To modify, use your hands for support to help you get up.
From standing position, bend knees into squat and reach down touching fingers to sides of feet. Then with an explosive jump, come up into a jumping jack, jumping legs out wide while and bringing arms out at sides and above head, then jump feet back in close together, coming down into squat and touching sides of feet again. This is one rep. Continue repeating movements doing as many reps as indicted or as many reps as you can for time.
