4. Slide and Plyometric Jump
A dynamic exercise to do with your kids, using the slide and adding a jump will boost your heart rate while working your upper and lower body and core muscles.
Start position: Stand facing the slide stairs and grab the handrails.
Movement: Briskly climb to the top of the slide and slide down, keeping your abdominals tight. When you reach the bottom, let your momentum carry you and try to land in a
semi-squat position (very softly while absorbing any impact). Think of this as a plyometric end to the exercise. However, you can also land and then jump as high as possible reaching your hands up
to the sky. Immediately circle back to the slide stairs and repeat.
Perform at least 10 repetitions without stopping.
