Cardio Conditioning & Core on the menu for today. Complete this in one day OR split them up and can add them as a finisher on any other day this week!

Alternatives: 
Jump rope -> Jumping Jacks 
Sprints -> High Knees

Do as many rounds as possible in the 15 minutes. Push yourself with minimal breaks! 🥵

Grab a handle in each hand and start with the rope behind you, so it's right at your heels. 

To get the rope moving, gently rotate your forearms forward and then your wrists to generate momentum and swing it overhead.

As the rope swings up overhead, bend your knees slightly. Once you see the rope pass your shins, jump by springing from your toes. Start slowly so you can master the timing of it. Once you get a few jumps down, you'll know when to jump naturally.

Once you're at a comfortable speed, your wrists can do all the work. Usually, there are bearings inside the handles that rotate the rope itself. This makes it easy to spin the rope with just your wrists. 

As you hop, be sure to stay on the balls of your feet. This keeps you quick and nimble.

Jump rope

Sprints

- Run in place with high knees for time or reps
- Increase speed as you feel comfortable

(alternative to sprints) High knees

- Lay on your back, hands at your sides 
- Raise your legs off the ground until straight up
- Reach for your toes like you’re climbing an imaginary rope
