Roll out
Start with your knees on the floor with your body leaning forward. You will need both hands on the table cloths. Slide forward tilting from your knees until your arms are fully extended and your body is low to the floor. Slide your body back without your bum being elevated in the air.
Single leg pendulum jumps
Stand on one leg and jump side to side. Try to travel 15 centimeters with each jump you perform. Move your arms up and down with each jump.
Shoulder press with feet on chair
Start with your hands on the floor with your feet shoulder width apart. Place your feet on the chair. Remember that the closer your arms are to your feet the harder the exercise will be.
Lower your head towards the floor by bending your elbows, and then start to straighten your arms so that you revert to the start position. Perform as many repetitions as you can.
Side-ward standing long jump
You will do the same wind up and knee bend as you did in the standing long jump, but your hands will swing side ward instead of backwards.
Jump as far as you can horizontally and then jump back to where you first started. Keep repeating this.
Press ups
Only your hands and feet will be on the floor. Have your feet hip width apart and your hands shoulder width apart.
Bend your arms and bring your chest to the floor. Once your chest has touched the floor you want to straighten your arms out until you are back to the start position.
