3. Stretching

Lightly stretch the quadriceps, calf muscles, hip flexors and hamstrings.

Perform the moves in step 2 at a higher intensity for 8 to 10 minutes. Make the movements long and exaggerated.

Begin with the toes, knees and thighs slightly turned out. The arms are bent in a diamond shape, with the fists close to the chest. Push the arms down to the hips while lifting the legs up and into a diamond shape. The knees point to each side at the top of the jump and mimic frog legs. Return to the starting position.
