Jumping Jacks: A classic aerobic exercise that works on cardiovascular fitness. Start with your feet together and arms by your sides. Jump your feet out wide while raising your arms overhead. Return to the starting position by jumping your feet back together and lowering your arms. Repeat for a set duration or number of repetitions.
High Knees: This exercise elevates your heart rate and improves lower body strength and agility. Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Lift one knee towards your chest while hopping on the other foot. Quickly alternate legs, pumping your arms to mimic running motion. Continue at a fast pace for a set duration.
Burpees: A full-body exercise that combines strength and cardio. Start in a standing position, then squat down and place your hands on the ground. Jump your feet back into a plank position, perform a push-up, then jump your feet back towards your hands and explode up into a jump, reaching your arms overhead. Repeat the sequence for a set number of reps or time.
Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar): A dynamic sequence that stretches and strengthens the entire body while promoting mindfulness and breath awareness. Begin in Mountain Pose (Tadasana), then flow through poses such as Forward Fold (Uttanasana), Plank Pose, Upward Facing Dog (Urdhva Mukha Svanasana), Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana), and return to Mountain Pose. Repeat the sequence several times, syncing movement with breath.
Warrior II Pose (Virabhadrasana II): This standing pose strengthens the legs, opens the hips, and improves balance and focus. Start in Mountain Pose, then step one foot back and turn it out at a 90-degree angle. Bend the front knee to a 90-degree angle, keeping the knee aligned with the ankle. Extend your arms parallel to the floor, gaze over the front fingertips, and hold the pose for several breaths. Repeat on the other side.
