Stretch!
Exercise Descriptions
* Surfer - begin with your tummy on the floor, legs extended behind and hands under your shoulders. Press up through your hands and jump your feet to your hands. Your feet will land on an angle to how you were laying, right foot forward (like your on a surf board). Stay low. Then reach your arms in the air and jump. Land and proceed to starting position. With your next rep, left leg will be forward. Continue alternating sides, for 10 reps on each side.
** Dive Bombers - start in a high plank/push-up position. As you press up through your arms, attempt to rub your nose on your mat (burns the arms and the core!). Press yourself up to a "downward dog" position - inverted V shape with hips high. Return to high plank/push-up position in the reverse way - still trying to get your nose to brush the floor. Follow through all the way to a "upward dog" position Repeat until all reps complete.
Enjoy your weekend!!
