Ski Abs: (R=1/L=1)
From a strong plank position you will jump both feet in and towards your right elbow. Hop back to plank and then repeat to the left elbow. You will do each side 15 times for a total of 30 repetitions. Really focus on a strong straight body line and on getting those knees pulled in tight to the elbows. This is cardio and strength so work HARD on these!

Squat:
Goal is to keep the weight in the heels and come down as low as possible. Keep the chest high and don't let those knees get out in front of the toes! Stand all the way up at the top and squeeze that booty for maximum benefit. Repeat 40 times.
