Burpee builder - keep adding reps and plates until you can't. Perform 3-4 reps at each level
They call this the Burpee Builder and it helps wake up your hip flexors and hamstrings! The version shown here is an advanced version. You can start by placing your hands on top fo the plate and then bringing your feet to the same plate. Then you can work up to this version with hands on the floor and bringing your feet to the plates.

Thoracic Mobility

  1. prayer stretch on the floor - this looks exactly like the child's pose. I want you to keep your hands together while doing this stretch. Hold for 5 deep breaths

  2. prayer stretch on the foam roller- same stretch with your arms extended on the roller with thumbs pointing up. Hold for 5 deep breaths

  3. open book stretch- this will work on rotational capability. lay on your side with top leg over the foam roller. Hands extended out together. Open the top arm and hold for 10 seconds.

  4. box stretch with PVC- this one we have done numerous times at the gym. Focus on elbows close, hands in a V position. Arch the back. Take 5 deep breaths

Lumber spine stability- with a light band on the rig at hip height, face away from the rig.  Get into a small squat, brace your core and maintain that braced back while you raise one arm out about chest height.  The band provides some resistance.  If you start to over extend in the lower back, you are losing the bracing and moving the arm too high.
