A Brand X Method™ Preschool Workout

FOCUS:
Blocked squat – Remind kids about feet together, then work on knee bend outward. Have kids line up shoulder to shoulder and try to touch knees during blocked squat.

WARM-UP:
Farmers and Lumberjacks – Scatter tall cones around a playing area of about 30’ x 30’, half upright and half knocked over. Divide the group into Farmers and Lumberjacks: Farmers are asked to keep the cones growing (standing) and Lumberjacks are asked to cut (knock) them down. All players must be moving at all times and cannot block or protect cones or touch other players. If at any point all cones are either up or down, the trainer calls freeze and the kids do 3 reps of a selected bodyweight exercise. Teams swap roles every few minutes.

CONDITIONING:
5:00-8:00
5 jumps of any kind
Bunny hops and frog leaps to dodgeball and throw to bucket or other receptacle (trainer will need to retrieve and replace dodgeballs)
Return to line

GAME:
Bubble Stomp – Cut bubble wrap into small sections and scatter around a 10-meter x 10-meter area. Kids move after one stomp at each bubble square
