* RDL = Romanian Dead Lift. If you're using a single weight, keep that between your legs, holding the weight close to you so that it aligns with the arch of your foot. Keep those lats engaged as you pull the weight towards your heels throughout the motion. Maintain a soft, "athletic" knee as you hip hinge down with the weight until your wrists reach your knees or so (stop earlier if you feel your back round or if your hammies won't stretch that far). Squeeze your glutes and hamstrings to stand - donotlift with your torso. Your torso will come up naturally as your hips press forward.

* Burpees can be modified to burpee sprawls as needed

Cool Down

Deep breathing to get your body back to homeostasis - get that stress level back down. Stretch out those shoulders, back, neck, and glutes.

Make It A Great One!
