WOD - Tuesday April 7

PE Work out of the Day:  Tuesday April 7

Hey PE rockstars!
Today's focus is flexibility.
By the end of today we would like you to understand the difference between dynamic and static stretching and have spent some time on stretching and flexibility.  Here are some ideas on how to do this.
WOD:
Option #1
5-10 minutes dynamic stretching (see video below if you need direction) (warm up)
20-40 minutes cardio (see choices from Monday's WOD)
2-5 minutes of core (crunches, plank, mountain climbers). OR try our  FUN CORE CHALLENGE (see photo plank stack!!), post your photo in comments!!)
10-15 minutes of static stretching (see video below if you need direction) If you go running check out the post run yoga on the lulu link below.

Option #2
Give an online yoga class a try.  There are many forms/styles of yoga see some here.  If you are needing ideas how to make props click here.
These free yoga videos are great and of different lengths:  https://shop.lululemon.com/story/yoga-videos

Option #3
Try this yoga sequence - go from final pose back to forward fold, standing and repeat on the other side.

*purpose of dynamic stretching is to get muscles warmed up and moving.  Think of it as moving stretches. Activating the muscles.  It is good to add a little jog in right at the start, think 2x10-20m

*static stretching should be used as part of a cool down, after the muscles have been working.
