This week, we are going to calm it down a little. We have been going hard with high impact activities for the last 4 weeks so this week we are going to shift gears to more stretching, core, Pilates, and body-weight exercise. We have YouTube videos attached in case you don’t recognize what the movement is.
Finish by the End of the Week:
- 100 push-ups daily, throughout the day
- 2.5 minute standard plank
- Yoga – where you can fit it in to life
- I suggest “Yoga for Athletes,” here is just one source: http://www.yogajournal.com/category/poses/yoga-for/athletes/
- 56 hours of sleep
- 21 liters of water
- 4-6 community service
- Do something outside on public land, state park, or city park. It just snowed in Wyoming. So, strap those Nordic skis on!
