Exercise Challenge - Can you do each of these exercises for 30 seconds? 45seconds? or 1 minute?
1. Mountain Climbers
Get into a push-up position and then alternate bringing your knee to your elbow. The idea is to move fast and work up a sweat!
2. Bear Crawls
Palms and feet flat on the floor, arch your back so that you look like a bear. Race across the room.
3. Star Jumps
Stand tall and then explosively jump into the air, expanding your legs and your arms so that you look like a large “X” in the air. At the height of the jump, be sure to exclaim, “I’m a STAR!”
4. Push-Ups
Straightforward and to the point. Just be sure your hands are in line with your chest and your bum isn’t in the air. Drop to the knees if it is too difficult.
5. Sit-Ups
Feel free to tuck your toes under the sofa or coffee table if you need a bit of support, or, ask someone to hold your feet.
6. Burpees
Start with a jump up, then drop to a plank, add a push-up, and then jump back up. It should be one fluid motion and try to not pause between repetitions.
MUSIC
Click here to access the Charanga site via YUMU for some more fun music activities.
Open up Hey You! lesson 1 (step 1) and, like last time, just work your way down the menu that is at the top-right of the screen. You should have your passwords which were emailed to you but please email [email protected] if any problems.
