may want to add a couple of water bottles or light hand weights follow me for the standard moves and follow me for the easier modifications all right let’s get going let’s go [Music] all right we’re getting started with our warmup first we’re gonna do a posterior swing to calf raise let’s go so get those feet little wider than shoulder width apart slight bend in the knees both hands together drive your hips back slight bend the knees as we throw those arms between our legs and then come all the way up and calf raise up onto the balls of our feet go ahead and repeat keep that back straight on this one it’s all about that hip hinge in your posterior chain so we have that slight bend in the knees and then you’re driving your hips back as you bend over keep your back straight core tight on this one great active stretch for that posterior chain lower back hamstrings and glutes making sure to breathe on this one and again this is just the warm-up so we’re moving at a warm-up pace there

three two one zero okay we’re going to need our hand weights for the next one I’m gonna do a switch jump cloudy’s gonna do a slightly lower impact move call the step-back I’m saying lighting on the balls of my feet and hopping and switching these legs oh and I’m doing a step-back motion and I’m using the exact same arm and just bringing it right back up the opposite arm and leg working together elbows are bent at a 90 degree angle it’s a total body move keep it going again pick whichever version is best for you and work at your own pace and if you gotta split it maybe do half the time of one version half on the other that’s alright to really just encourage you to make this routine your own alright here we go in five four three two one break excellent alright we’re gonna burn out those shoulders and axe go ahead and get with your feet shoulder-width apart using your hand weights bring up the rack position we’re gonna press one arm at a time and a seesaw shoulder press straight up straight down again this is all about speed not about using a lot of weight on this one just getting that heart rate up and we’re let’s go come on using good posture keeping a core nice and tight remembering to breathe the movement that’s it keep those little slight bend in your knees along the way good posture you got it come on driving I’m driving I’m driving I’m straight up what do you got

apart to start hands are up at your chin I’m gonna punch plus kick and I’m gonna punch plus me race so bring my knee up to parallel to the ground or as best as you can we’re going opposite arm and leg are working together I’m basically starting with that knee raise where I’m bringing my knee up but then I’m extending and finishing with the kick on that punch we’re extending that arm all the way out and bringing it back to our chin in between every rep keep your core nice and tight it actually really helps you stabilize the movement helps you keep your balance and as you get more familiar with the move you can pick up the pace right come on what you got here it is what all out there again you choose which variations right for you five seconds left not much left four three two one break excellent okay we’re moving right into a faux jump rope so I like it on the balls of our feet performing little circular motions with our wrist just like we’re doing a normal jump problem small tight circles with those wrists in four arms staying light on the balls of our feet ideally we’re not getting any heel contact on this jump rope you need to feel free to do so but working towards keeping those heels up you’re a bouncy ball not a rock that’s to say that’s right you got neighbors underneath you we don’t want to hear you returning that energy back into the ground not just being big four three two one break all right keep those hand weights are going to the upper body move feet are shoulder width apart been around 45-degree angle when perform a bent-over swing those palms down arms are straight swinging at the shoulder bringing those arms up until they’re parallel to our bodies all the way up all the way down head stays in line with your spine slight bend in the knees weights
