WORKOUT INFORMATION:

A huge thank you to Millie and Mo for kindly filming and demonstrating these at home exercises during lockdown in their garden.

Before exercising it’s super important to always warm up to prevent any injury. Once you're done please don’t forget to cool down with a full stretch routine as well to prevent any injury. If you'd like more information on this,

EXERCISE AND WORKOUT DETAILS:

Rocket jumps - Aim to do 24 repetitions. Remember you don't have to do 24 repetitions straight away do what’s comfortable and slowly work your way up, this applies to all the exercises.

Star jumps - Aim for 2 sets of 15 to 24 repetitions.

If you struggle with the star jumps you can do squats instead - Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands down by your sides or stretched out in front for extra balance. Lower yourself by bending your knees until they're nearly at a right angle, with your thighs parallel to the floor. Keep your back straight and don't let your knees extend over your toes. Aim for 2 sets of 15 to 24 repetitions

Tap backs - To start tap backs, step your right leg back and swing both arms forward, then repeat with the opposite leg in a continuous rhythmic movement. Look forward and keep your hips and shoulders facing forward. Don't let your front knee extend over your toes as you step back. Aim for 2 sets of 15 to 24 repetitions

Burpees - To do a burpee from a standing position, drop into a squat with your hands on the ground. Kick your feet back into a push-up position. Jump your feet back into a squat and jump up with your arms extending overhead. Now For an easier burpee, don't kick out into the push-up position and stand up instead of jumping. Aim for 2 sets of 15 to 24 repetitions

IMPORTANCE OF STAYING ACTIVE WHILE SOCIAL DISTANCING:

While you’re staying at home and social distancing it can be very easy to fall into an unhealthy pattern of behaviour which can make you feel down, demotivated and even dampen your immune system. So please try to stay mentally and physically active.

The NHS also have some really useful articles on keeping mental active and lots of general advice on what to do while you’re staying at home. Here are the links to the articles,

If you'd like more information on maintaining a healthy immune system with evidence based science. I did make a video on this topic a few weeks ago and can be watched at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmiokJod51k
