Workout Breakdown:

Each exercise has a full expression and a modification—adjust as needed and listen to your body!

1. Side to Side Squat Jump
Jump laterally from side to side into a squat, landing softly with control.
Modification: Step side to side into a squat instead of jumping to reduce impact.

2. Mountain Climbers
In a high plank position, drive your knees toward your chest as quickly as possible.
Modification: Slow down the movement or step each knee forward instead of running.

3. Standing Elbow to Knee with Hop
Lift your knee toward your opposite elbow while adding a small hop for extra intensity.
Modification: Remove the hop and focus on controlled knee lifts.

4. Down Dog Kick Up Leg Switch
From a downward dog position, kick one leg up, then switch to the other side.
Modification: Perform a slower leg lift and bring knee to nose, or hold downward dog for a few seconds between kicks.

5. Cross Jumping Jacks
Perform a standard jumping jack, but cross your legs and arms in front as you jump.
Modification: Step side to side while alternating arm crosses instead of jumping.

6. Bicycle Crunch
Lie on your back, alternate bringing your elbow to the opposite knee in a twisting motion.
Modification: Keep your feet on the ground and perform slow, controlled oblique crunches.
