Workout for Friday, June 25

Testing:
See if you can do the following exercises, consecutively, no resting between reps. If you don't get to the goal, record how far you get and we'll work on it again in a couple of months. Rest as needed between exercises

Push ups--last month we did 30 for the goal, this month, 35(From the toes, strict, chest to the floor. Be honest. If you can only do 2 or 3 really good, strict push ups from the toes…just know that this is better than the majority of people out there!)

Squats--last month we did 60 for the goal, this month, 75 (good form, complete range of motion, which means hips below or at parallel at the bottom, and completely opened up at the top)

Sit ups*--last month we did 50 for the goal, this month 60 (our standard for these will be touching the floor behind the head with your fingertips, and touching the floor at your feet at the top--complete range of motion.)

*For those with tailbone issues from sit ups--DO NOT do this and aggravate your tailbone! Sub in 20-25 ab rollers in a row, or just do 2 minutes of planks.
