FLY Olympics Activity Challenge #10
Day 10 Personal Olympic Event (for Beginners): Mogul skiing: sitting in a chair with your elbows bent at a 45 degree angle, pretend you are planting your ski poles by extending your right arm out so that your closed fist stops right outside your knee and then pull it back next to you and do the same thing with your left arm. Do 10 sets of 15 seconds or 20 sets of 30 seconds throughout the day.
Day 10 Personal Olympic Event: Do a total of 20 sit-ups. You can break these up into 5 sets of 4 or 2 sets of 10 and they can be done sitting in a chair (slowly come forward crunching your abs and then come back) or on the group. The key is to relax your neck and only come off the group a few inches at a time. It is all about quality - not quantity.
