Full body buddy workout

Working out with someone can be great way to have fun and get a workout in at the same time. You’ll probably find you’ll push yourself more than if you were working out alone!

So what are you waiting for? Complete each exercise 10 times, take 1-minute rest and repeat for 10 minutes.

Before you dive in to the main workout, make sure to warm up. Jog on the spot and start with some star jumps to raise your body temperature so you’re ready for your main workout.

Main workout - 3 Exercises

Sit up and high 5

1. Lie on the floor facing the ceiling with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
2. Have your partner lie down facing you, interlacing their feet with yours.
3. Squeeze your abs and lift your shoulders off the floor.
4. Sit up and reach to clap high 5 both hands with your partner.
5. Lower your shoulders slowly back to starting position.

2. Place each hand as wide as is comfortable.
3. Slowly lower your chest towards the floor whilst keeping your abs tight and back straight
4. Push back up to the start position and clap your partner’s opposite hand

High 5 squat jump

1. Begin facing each other, about 1 metre away, with feet hip-width distance apart.

3. Then jump as high as you can and give your partner a high 5 mid-air.

After you’ve completed your workout, cool down by performing some static stretches. Hold each stretch for about 15-30 seconds. Well done!
