Squat With Overhead Reach

• Begin with your feet slightly wider than hip's width apart and toes pointed slightly outward. Raise your arms up until your upper arms are even with your ears. If this is too difficult, rest your hands on your hips.

• Complete three sets of 20 to 30 squats.

Around-the-World Squat Hop

• Before you start this move, visualize a large square on the floor where you're standing in the bottom right corner, feet hip-distance apart.
• Keeping weight in the heels, bend the knees, and squat down. Take a huge jump forward to the top right corner of that imaginary square, landing quietly back into a squat.
• Keep going around the square, jumping to the left, jumping back behind you, and jumping to the right. Now you're back where you started.

Good Morning
