Climbing and Conquering Mountains

It might feel like a huge challenge to do 10 days of 100 reps....but you are DOING IT!!! You should feel like you are on top of the world with conquering these daily challenges, so lets put you even higher by doing some mountain climbers!:)

Mountain climbers are an excellent move for building cardio endurance while also building core strength and agility. This is also a great move when you don't have much room and can be modified as well.  If you are a beginner, use a chair for your hands and if you are wanting more of a challenge start on the floor.

  •  Begin in a pushup position on the hands and toes. 
  •  Bring the right knee in towards the chest, resting the foot on the floor. 
  •  Jump up and switch feet in the air, bringing the left foot in and the right foot back. 
  •  You can also run the knees in and out rather than touching the toes to the floor. 
  •  Go for 100 reps!
