Mountain Climbers

Mountain climbers are one of my favorite exercises to get the heart rate up. Added bonus...it engages your core and works your shoulders too! Throw it in there after 3 or 4 exercises to intensify your workout.

Target Muscles:

Chest, Shoulders, Abs, Cardiovascular system

How To:

• Start in the plank/pushup position with your body in a straight line, hands directly under your shoulders
• Jump your left foot forward driving your knee up toward your chest (left foot stays off the ground)
• Your right foot stays out behind you in the start position
• Very quickly, return your left foot to the start position and simultaneously, repeat the same move with the right foot
• Repeat at a rapid pace for the instructed amount of time

Important: Don’t let your butt get extend up in the air and remember to breath.
