Ok in this clip we are going to be doing side jumps ok. So what you are going to do is have your feet shoulder width apart. Now remember we are out here at the beach, what a beautiful place to get in shape for the summer. Ok bend your knees slightly, nice and low on the haunches and jump to the side ok. We are just going to explode off the hamstrings, the quads and the calves ok. And of course in our glutes, don't forget about our glutes, ok. You are going to use your arms to propel your body up, shoulders back ok, body nice and relaxed at our position. Explode to the side, reset the body ok. You just want to keep, keep an eye on your heart rate make sure it's not going up too high, ok. This also helps to get a little bit of cardio in to help get you in shape for the summer. Explode to the side ok reset your body. Keep your knees in line with the toes or behind. Come back to the side, ok. You?re going to explode with those legs. Ok you're going to exhale as you come across, take a deep breath in, relax. Explode again, you are going to do a couple of sets of these maybe two to three sets of ten to twelve.
