WARMUP PUSH-UP
► Get in push-up position, abs and glutes tight. Bend at the elbows and shoulders, lowering your chest to within a few centimetres of the floor. Press back up. That's 1 rep.
REVERSE LUNGE
Start standing, then step your right foot back about a metre. Bend at the knees and hips, lowering until your left thigh is parallel to the floor. Stand back up explosively, then repeat on the other side. That's 1 rep.
