Back, Arms & Shoulders
- "Chest Pass" - passing a medicine ball back and forth between you and a partner
- Chest pass with one arm - catch the ball with both hands but push it back with most of the force in one arm (focuses on the bicep)
- Forcefully throw the ball down at the ground, bouncing it up towards your partner
- Push-ups (use knees if needed - work your way up to traditional push-ups)

Squats
Arms & Abs
Chest Pass while sitting on a stability ball
Sit-ups while balancing on a stability ball

Cardio
- Always stretch beforehand
- Go for a run (Kelly likes to go running with a partner - it gives you someone to talk to and helps to keep your breathing deep)
- REMEMBER TO BREATHE!!
- Sprint the last few yards if you're up for it!
ABC Workout
- Use a weighted ball, soup cans or another lightly weighted item that is easy to hold
- Use your arms and entire body to spell out the alphabet, making large sweeping motions
- See video above!
Cardio- every other day
- Warm up by stretching and walking
- Start off slow to prepare for speed and hill training
- Use elbows to punch and maintain form
- For hill training, start off with smaller steps while going up hill
- Pay attention to your footing- running on pavement versus soft, uneven ground
- Know your target heart rate
Pilates- every other day (non-running days)
Is good for people with back problems
Strengthens core muscles
Yoga- weekends and during the week
Ansari Yoga focuses on the heart
Includes a meditation element
