Instructions
Find a space that is clear in front, behind, and to each side of you to avoid injury. Perform a warm-up that consists of an activity that gradually increases your heart rate and moves your joints through a moderate to large range of motion. Perform each exercise in the warm-up for 45 seconds. After completing the workout perform a cool-down that allows your heart rate to gradually slow down to a normal rate. Hold static stretches for 20-30 seconds.
It is encouraged that you modify each exercise to a version that is best for you.
