Double Wave
- Begin in an athletic stance, with your feet a little wider than shoulder-width distance apart, squatting down slightly. Make sure you're far enough away from the ropes to create a little tension while still being able to keep your weight shifted back in your heels with both feet flat on the ground.
- Hold a Toning Rope in each hand with your arms extended in front of you.
- Relax your shoulders, keep your spine straight, and engage your core as you raise both arms above your head and quickly slam down the ropes with both hands, making a wave pattern with the ropes. You may feel your hips start to raise up in your squat, but only allow yourself a few inches of wiggle room, so you never fully stand up.
- This counts as one rep.
- Perform double waves for 20 seconds, followed by a 10-second rest for round one, 30 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round two, 40 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round three, 40 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round four, 30 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round five, and 20 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round six. Rest for 30 to 45 seconds between rounds.
