Move of the Day ➡️ Abdominal Cycle/Cross Crawl

Lying on the ground with your lower back pressed towards the floor, place your hands lightly on the sides of your head and lift your head and shoulders up off the floor. Lift one leg just off the ground and extend it out. Lift the other leg and bend your knee towards your chest and twist through your core/torso to bring the opposite elbow towards the raised knee. Lower your leg and arm at the same time while bringing up the opposite two limbs to mirror the movement.

🟢🔵Modifications: Perform the same movement from a sitting or standing position. Perform the same movement from either a seated or standing position. Lift one knee up to hip level and twist through the core/torso, to bring the opposite elbow down toward the lifted knee. Lower and return to upright standing and repeat to the other side.

Move of the Day ➡️ Tricep Dips or Push-Ups

Dips: When seated, place your hands on the armrests of your chair. Push yourself up until your arms are fully extended, then slowly lower yourself down until you are fully seated again. For a greater challenge, slip your hips off the front edge of your chair to lower yourself below the level of your seat, to start.

🟢🔵Modifications: If you don’t quite have the arm strength, but you do have some leg strength, you can use your legs to assist you slightly. But try to let your arms do as much of the work as possible. Push Ups: Get down on all fours, placing your hands slightly wider than your shoulders. Straighten your arms and legs. From either your hands and knees (or feet), lower your body until your chest nearly touches the floor. Pause, then push yourself back up.
