3 Phase Warm-Up:
Phase 1: Warm-Up: Perform 3 minutes of diaphragmatic breathing while lying supine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-_NNCrrdus Lie on back and initiate breathing with belly–>rib cage and then chest, instead of initiating with chest. Breathe in and out of nose for approximately 15s each breath (5s inhale–> 5 s hold–> 5 s exhale). Emphasize that campers do this upon rising and going to sleep and if they want an amazing shift in their state at any time, while breathing think about 3 things they are grateful for.
Phase 2: Floor Stretches (5 min) *Work on forearm/wrist mobility
Phase 3: Perform the following exercises in a circuit for 50s each with 10s rest in between for 2 rounds:
*3B’s= Draw in belly towards spine, engage bladder muscles and tuck butt
*2B’s= Draw in belly towards spine & engage bladder muscles
- Partner Lower Abdominal Curl Up with Knees Flexed (heels to butt) *Keep 3 B’s*Use MB/Foam Roll between heels to butt *Hold each other’s forearms for anchor
- Partner Elbow Plank with Cross Hand High Five *Widen feet as needed *Keep 3 B’s *Avoid arching back
- Partner Superman *Hold each other’s elbows and bring up and down with lower body hip ext. Bring arms off to the side slightly, so people do not engage upper traps *Straight arms & legs *2B’s Shoulders back & down
