If you spend a lot of time on it, you're done -- if you just do it once, choose another activity like shoot some baskets or go for a bike ride. Your choice, have fun!
COOL DOWN-- Always good to stretch. The mile is next week. Hopefully, the weather is good. Check out your area and see if you can find a track, it's the easiest way to measure the mile.

Go down until your elbows are 90 degrees (like the corner of a window). There is no time limit - do as many good push ups as you can and report back to me.
game: slap ball - see below
COOL DOWN: next week is the shuttle run...you will try to go as fast as you can...this week see if you can shuttle back and forth in these ways---crab walk, bear walk, frog jumps & duck walk.... not easy but hopefully fun. maybe race your sibling or parent?

Do your best and forget the rest:)
game--Turnabout--it's a kicking game, good luck--have fun! The video is long because it gives you timers. Feel free to use the timers or just turn it off after you understand the game.
COOL DOWN:
next week is push ups, practice your push ups...maybe do a couple, rest, then do some more... it's good to practice but don't overdo it.

ACTIVITY: 1--Flexiblity/v-sit test. You will need 2 rulers. 1 ruler is between your 2 feet--so they are 12 inches apart, the other ruler is perpendicular to that so you can see how many inches you are from your feet. If you do not have rulers you can estimate. Things to remember--don't bend your knees, don't stretch quickly, and it should not hurt! You will just find out wether you can go past your feet or you are somewhere before your feet. If you are the ladder, it's best to try and stretch every day a little.
Once you get that done--here is just a fun activity for you called toss & catch...
COOL DOWN: Next week is sit ups---go ahead and do 5 sit ups, take a break, do 5 more, break and do 5 more....

Create your own jump rope routine - Spend at least 15 minutes creating a jump rope routine. Your routine must have at least 4 different types of jumps and each jump must flow into the next jump (no stopping). For example you must switch from a front straddle to a bell without missing a turn of the rope. If possible, I'd love for you to submit a video so I can see how your jump roping is going.
