Warm up- Skip 30m, walk backwards (carefully) back to start, walking lunges for 30m, jog/run back to start line. Then play a game with your partner. For 1 min, see how many times you can tap each other’s knees. The one with the highest score wins!
1 min- ‘Suitcase squats’- imagine that you are picking up 2 non-rolling suitcases (one in each hand). Keep the back straight and the chest up while looking ahead. Stick that bum out and keep the weight in the heels (rather than over your toes). Feel free to hold weights or shopping bags with a few tins of soup in them to make the movement more challenging

1 min- Hamstring fall- One person kneels and the other person kneels behind them and holds down their ankles. The person then keeps the body straight as they slowly fall forward until they end up in a press up position. If you can, use the press up at the bottom to return to starting position
1 min- Side plank right
1 min- Side plank left
