A whole-body warm-up that focuses on coordination, agility, and personal exploration. Good music included.
Expect a decent amount of work for your cardiovascular system and some fun challenges for your brain.
Being able to move our bodies quickly and reactively can be important, especially when we’re facing situations that may be hazardous (e.g. reacting quickly when a car drives towards us).
Training agility is therefore a good way to learn how to preserve the efficiency of our movements in a situation where we’ll have to react and act fast.
As for coordination exercises, they are extremely nourishing for our cerebellum, which processes complex movements. Training agility and coordination is, therefore, a great way to improve and maintain cognitive functions.
No props needed here. Enjoy !
This title is so poetic 😉 I had a lot of fun with the practice and it got my heart rate going. Usually I dislike jumping squats, but you presented them in a fun and engaging way that I did not mind doing it at all 😀 Thanks again!
Oooh good, I’m happy to read that! Fun makes all the difference; I’m also not a fan of jumping squats, especially when counting the sets and reps – I get easily bored and want to give up if it’s not engaging. And I’m glad you find the title poetic, it took me a while to find it! Luckily, the Merriam Webster online dictionary helped me in the naming quest 😀
