Work it!!

Here is a great little workout challenge for you his week. Complete this at least once and get your bonus points for the week. I encourage you to do it again a few days later and try to improve the amount of time it takes you to get through all of the moves. Have fun!

The goal is to get through this as fast as you can with no or very little breaks. Modify any moves that you need to on order to accommodate knee, hip, or other issues. Just push yourself and do what you can! It is meant to be hard....do it as quickly as you can with GOOD FORM, and without injuries!

Warmup first to avoid injury:
30 jumping jacks
30 high knees (15 each leg, alternating)
10 squats (get DOWN!)
10 push ups (toes or knees - elbows to 90 degrees)
7 burpees or squat thrusts (google the move if you are unsure)
20 walking lunges (10 each side)
20 squats
15 push-ups
10 star bursts (get low then jump as high as you can while spreading your limbs out and up, like a big star. Bring limbs back in as you land softly back into a low crouching position, jumping back only the second rep....fluid movements one after the other)
30 walking lunges (15 each side)
30 squats
20 push-ups
30 mountain climbers. (15 each leg. Google the move).
10 lunges (5 each side)
10 squats
5 push-ups
25 crunches
DONE!!

Record that you've completed in the comments here. If you want, include the number of minutes it took you to complete it ( a little competition is a good thing!)
