A. Warm-up x 3 sets
A1. Mountain climber x 20 reps
A3. Lunge with reach x 5/side
A4. Air squat x 10 reps
A5. Bodyweight reverse lunges x 10 reps

- Begin in a pushup position, with your weight supported by your hands and toes. Flexing the knee and hip, bring one leg until the knee is approximately under the hip. This will be your starting position.
- Explosively reverse the positions of your legs, extending the bent leg until the leg is straight and supported by the toe, and bringing the other foot up with the hip and knee flexed. Repeat in an alternating fashion for 20-30 seconds.

Mountain climbers

(5/side - 10 total reps)

- Begin in a runner's lunge, and place your right hand on the outside of your right foot. Reach your left hand to the ceiling, increasing the stretch on the left side of the body. Hold for a few seconds
- Then place the left hand at the inside of your right foot. Twist to the right and reach your right arm to the ceiling. Hold for a few seconds
- Repeat this sequence on the other leg.

Lunge with reach (twisting)

- Keep your feet at shoulder width apart and pointed straight ahead.
- When squatting, your hips will move down and back.
- Your lumbar curve should be maintained, and your heels should stay flat on the floor the entire time.
- In air squats, your hips will descend lower than your knees.

Air squat

- With one leg, step backward approximately two feet from your other foot. Lower your body, keeping your torso upright and taking care to keep your balance. Inhale as you do so.
- Push up and return to the starting position. Exhale as you do.
Tip: Use the ball of your feet to push in order to accentuate the quadriceps. To focus on the glutes, press with your heels.
- Do the same thing with the other leg.
