A Brand X Method™ Preschool Workout

FOCUS:
Squat – Get feet in the right place and squat to a medicine ball. Try to pause without sitting on the ball.

WARM-UP:
Shuttle runs – Alternate running with walking lunges.

CONDITIONING:
1:00 tuck jumps
1:00 side shuffle
1:00 burpees or floppies
1:00 slow squats
1:00 dance around

GAME:
Food Fight – Ask the kids to take their “seats” by sitting one foot from the edge of a “table” created by lengths of PVC pipe. The table has up to a dozen dodgeballs arranged on it. The kids should be equidistant from each other. The trainer names an exercise and then the trainer calls out, “Food Fight!” at appropriate intervals, whereupon players can grab any dodgeball (without stepping or climbing onto the table) and throw it other players across the table only. The trainer helps retrieve dodgeballs and reset table for the next round. Players are allowed to retrieve and reset dodgeballs as long as they place them back on table and perform only cross-table throws.
