Did you know that the best way to give someone a high five is to watch the elbow? Try it.You're welcome.
You can only imagine how awesome that would be if you gave yourself a high five.
Well, you're about to. This workout is FIFTEEN MINUTES. Yep. That's it. Don't tell me you don't have the time, because I don't believe you.

| This was totally natural. |
Jumping Side Squats: Work on explosive lateral power, starting and ending with knees bent in a squat every time. Your knees should stay in line with your ankles whenever possible.
Side Plank Touches: Keep feet at least shoulder width apart and rotate over the outside of the foot. You are always touching the same side hand and foot (R to R and L to L)!
Trunk Twists: For a lower option, bend the knees, and keep the heels on the floor, toes up. Your heart should stay lifted and your back is straight and strong. No shrugging!
Knee to Chest Push Ups: You're working your core as well as your upper body! Begin with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Bring your knee as far as you can HIGH and UP into your chest (this is the core workout!), then bend your elbows out to the side and push your body and your leg back to starting position. Repeat other side.
Downward Dog Jumps: This is EASIER than it looks!!!!!! To increase difficulty, BEND YOUR ELBOWS as you bend your knees and explode up off the ground. Try to land softly!
This is a great, full body workout that you can do ANYWHERE- yes, even on the subway. My peeps at SPA (Speed, Power, Agility) and I did a 14-minute Cardio Interval before doing this workout. 30 minutes total, and wicked sick.
