Centered

One of the key elements of being able to get your body to perform at it's peak is balance. It seems like such a simple concept, however, more often than not it is a difficult thing to maintain. Today we are going to focus on it!

5 min. warm up
Stretch
3x 10 push ups
3x 10 speed skater jumps
3x 10 single leg squats
3x 10 single leg toe touches(Keep the leg your standing on straight)
3x 10 woodchops (each side)
3x 10 inverted rows
4x 60sec. planks
2x 15 sec. side plank
4x 25 v-ups (pike crunches)
10 min. cool down
Stretch

Enjoy!

  1. I feel like I always have questions but what are the single leg squats and single leg toe touches?

  2. A single leg squat is similar to any other squat except you are only on on leg. A single leg toe touch is as follows:
    1.Standing straight up,pick your right foot up off of the floor.
    2. Bending in half at the waist, with your left leg extended behind you and your right leg as straight as possible, reach down and touch your right foot with your left hand
    3.Return to beginning position, switch feet, and repeat

    Hope that helps
