Need direction? Check out the demos below:

TWERK OUT CRAWLS

Begin in a standing position, then bend at the waist to touch the floor. Walk your hands forward until you’re in a plank position. Perform a push-up (optional for advanced), then walk your hands back towards your feet. Return to the standing position, incorporating a twerk for added flair.

POP SQUAT CRUNCHES

Start in a squat position, then explode up into a jump (advanced) or take a side step (modified). As you land, immediately transition into a crunch, bringing your knee towards your chest. Alternate between the pop squat and crunch for a dynamic full-body workout.

ALTERNATE KNEE TAPS

Stand with feet hip-width apart. Lift your right knee towards your chest, tapping it with your left hand. Add a hop for an extra challenge (advanced) or keep both feet on the ground for a modified version. Repeat on the opposite side. This move engages the core and elevates your heart rate.
