1<br />
SQUATS (10 reps)<br />
Stand up tall with a chair<br />
positioned behind you. Bend<br />
your hips first and your knees<br />
second as you lower yourself to<br />
touch the chair on a count of<br />
four seconds. Pause for two<br />
seconds then stand again.<br />
2<br />
KNEE-UPS<br />
Face the wall with yours hands<br />
on the surface. Bring one knee up<br />
to your hip and then return it to<br />
the ground before raising the<br />
opposite knee. That’s one rep. At<br />
some point you should find<br />
yourself skipping.<br />
3<br />
TABLE PUSH-UPS<br />
Lean into a table with your<br />
arms positioned 90 degrees<br />
to the ground. Elbows and<br />
wrists lined up. Now lower<br />
yourself towards the table<br />
and breathe in on a count of<br />
four seconds. Lift yourself off<br />
the table as you breathe out.<br />
4<br />
TOE RAISES<br />
Stand in front of a wall with<br />
your hand palms down on<br />
the surface. In one motion,<br />
raise your heels of the<br />
ground until you are on your<br />
toes. Then lower your heels<br />
back to the ground for one<br />
rep. Now try whilst facing<br />
the wall.<br />
5<br />
SPLIT LUNGES<br />
Grab the edge of a table or a door<br />
knob. Have one leg forward and<br />
one back in a ‘split stance’. Lower<br />
your knee towards the ground on<br />
the back leg, as you bend the<br />
front leg, taking care not to let<br />
your front knee go past your toes.<br />
Repeat on opposite side.<br />
6<br />
WALL SIDE PLANK<br />
With the wall in front of you turn<br />
to your side and place your<br />
forearm and hand on the wall.<br />
Bring your feet slightly out and<br />
away from you so you are leaning<br />
on the wall. Now press up with<br />
your one arm until your hips are<br />
parallel again.<br />
