Stand on one leg with your butt and belly tight, standing tall – Stay balanced for 20-60 seconds – Balance on each foot two time each -Challenge yourself by changing your perspective, looking up and side to side

Time to stretch out those hips, hamstrings and lower back – Start in a downward dog position/ similar to pushup position but with your hips up high – From this position, bring your chest to the ground and round out to the upward dog position – Make sure to keep your elbows in tight, chest tall, belly tight to protect that lower back – For a challenge, try reversing the same motion from the upward dog to the downward dog -5-10 times for a good stretch

Start in that downward dog position and bring up your leg, -Cross your lifted leg over to the opposite side to feel that spinal rotation

– Drop down on your belly and spread your arms out – Perform that same leg cross from that laying position. Perform each leg cross 5 times. Focus: Keep your belly tight, don’t go too deep into the stretch if you feel pain the low back or hips.

– Start in push-up position, fingers spread and butt tight – Lift a leg or arm to make the plank more of a challenge – Side plank: roll over on one side keeping that plank position -You now are supporting yourself with one arm and your legs – Try and drop down to your elbow and stagger your feet for more balance Regular Plank: 20 sec rest for 10 Post up on left arm side plank: 20sec, rest 10 Post up on right arm side plank: 20sec, rest 10 Repeat three of each

Lay down and place one hand on chest and one hand on belly -take a few breaths – Think about breathing in this order -Belly first -To mid chest -To chest …and back -Chest -Mid Chest -Belly Focus: Relax and really concentrate and how you breathe.

*PSST… Nate mis-peaks in this breathing video. He says “chest, mid-chest, chest” when he really means “belly, mid-chest, chest.”
