Jump Squat and Plank
Partner 1 will begin in a standard
forearm plank and maintain this position
throughout.
Partner 2 will stand at the level of
Partner 1’s knees and while keeping
feet together, jump sideways over them,
lifting feet as high as possible off the
ground. Repeat jumping back to the
other side and continue for 20 jumps,
then alternate positions. To make this
easier, Partner 1 may drop knees to the
floor in a plank, and Partner 2 may jump
over with one foot at a time.
Sit-Up High 5’s
The key to this move is motivating one
another. Both partners will lie on their
backs with their legs and knees raised.
From here they will raise their upper
bodies (leading with the chest)
performing a sit-up. Once they reach
the highest point of the sit-up, they
should high five each other - give a word
of motivation, and lower their upper
bodies back down. Repeat this 30 times,
performed in sets of 10 if needed.
Straight Arm Plank Taps
This exercise will require that each
partner begins in a straight-arm plank
position facing each other- elevating
a leg to make it harder, or dropping a
knee to make it easier. From here, they
will take turns to gently try to push
the other partner over by tapping their
arms/shoulders. This activity should
be repeated for 2 minutes, breaking at
30-second intervals if needed.
Once you have performed the exercises and had a good catch up with your accountability
partner, be sure to discuss your meal plans for the week ahead. Remember the importance
of water, as well as post-workout meals.
