Humpday HIIT: The Rabbit

Interested in some pure plyometric fun?  “The Rabbit” is specifically designed to improve dynamic balance and explosive capabilities. This workout is progressive by nature and is designed to make the legs feel like jelly--mine sure do... 

It is so important to have variation in your workouts, Go forwards, go backwards, go left, go right, change directions, slow down, speed up, use 1 foot, use 2 feet, sprint, jog, crawl, climb, push, pull, jump up, jump down, burpee and keep that body guessing.  #Letsgetbouncy
