    Simon says...WTH? That first page was confusing! LOL

    Okay, did the jumping rope (the invisible jump rope to boot).

    Simon Says...touch your nose. HAHA! I couldn't resist.

    Simon Says (for real)...high-step march in place for 30 seconds.
  • did the high step marches!

    Simon says...

    I'm gonna do a hard one.

    Simon says 20 squats!

    (well, that's hard for me, at least!!!)

    Okay I did that (panting a little over here lol)...Simon says find something that weighs a few pounds (a handweight would work perfect, but a bag of sugar, a can of vegetables, etc. will work) and lift it over your head 10 times.

    Hmmm I would do this before I head for the shower, but I don't know what this is...

    I think basically you just turn your hand around the other way. Instead of knuckles facing you, they face the floor. Make sense?

    I"m sorry all. A reverse crunch is a floor exercise. A regular crunch is like the mini-situps where you curl up with your upper body, but still keep your lower back on the floor - not a full sit up.

    A reverse crunch is done with the legs and hips. Basically, you lay on the floor as if to do a regular crunch - but lift your legs straight up as if to walk on the ceiling, then rather than lifting your upper body, you use your core strength to lift your hips and legs (slightly) off the floor.

    It is killer for the lower abs..

    Sorry I messed up the quote - can't seem to grab which quotes I can delete - such a non-techie..

    I"m sorry all - I meant a reverse crunch (it would help if I used correct terms).

    In case you are still not sure: A reverse crunch is a floor exercise. A regular crunch is like the mini-situps where you curl up with your upper body, but still keep your lower back on the floor - not a full sit up.

    It's a great exercise Laura - just don't try to lift too far, even fractions of an inch work for this one..

    enjoy.. jb

    I can't do sit ups to save my life...so I'm just bumping this up for my fellow black teamers and hoping that someone can do these so they can give me one to do!
