AD' BREAK CHALLENGE
Todays ad' break challenge is the exercise you either love or hate, Steves informs flutter kicks! Can you flutter kick your way through the advert break?
Sit to the edge of your seat, engage your core, lean back slightly and lift the legs off. To make this slightly easier, grip the edge of your seat for some extra support or to challenge yourself try and take your hands off too. You should really feel this one in your core.

My fave!
POSE OF THE DAY
Todays pose of the day is mountain pose.
This pose may look simple, but when done properly should work almost your whole body. Mountain pose strengthens the thighs, knees, ankles, abdomen, and buttocks. It improves posture and, when practiced regularly, can help reduce back pain. This is a really good re-set posture which can be performed as regularly as you like, especially if you are spending a lot of time sitting. Hold here for five slow breaths.

KETTLE BOIL CHALLENGE
How many tricep dips can you do in the time it takes to boil the kettle?
Todays challenge will help to build strength in your upper body. Make sure your chair or surface is stable and can support your weight before starting. This one should be done nice and slowly, and you should start to feel an aching in the back of your upper arms. To make it slightly easier, complete in a chair with your hands on the chair arms, raising yourself out of the seat as you straighten your arms, then lowering back down to sitting.

KETTLE BOIL CHALLENGE
How many star jacks can you do in the time it takes to boil the kettle?
Todays challenge will work your whole body, including your cardiovascular system. For the slightly easier version take one arm and one leg out at a time, focusing on engaging your core and maintaining balance. To make it slightly more difficult, try both sides at once. As it is lovely and sunny this week, make sure you are drinking plenty of water if giving this one a go!
