Stability and balance

1. Stand in front of chair
2. Slowly squat down until your bottom gently touches the chair
3. Your knee should not pass over your toe
4. Pause for 1 second and then slowly come back up again.

1. Lift one foot and position it in the middle of the step
2. Step up with the opposite leg and, without touching the step, bend your knee and bring it up towards your chest
3. Step straight back down again, and bring other foot off the step, returning both feet down to the ground
4. Repeat on opposite leg

1. Hold a weight/water bottle in each hand
2. Step forward to complete a lunge – bend your knees to approximately 90 degrees as you reach the full range
3. Keep your torso upright and your core engaged
4. Complete a bicep curl with both arms (bending at your elbows to lift weight toward shoulders)
5. Lower weights back down again. Push off from your front leg to return to the starting position
6. Repeat alternating legs.

1. Start in a standing position with your feet slightly apart
2. Step out to the side, keeping toes pointing forward

4. Push off from your bent leg to return to the starting position and repeat on the opposite side

1. Start in a modified side ­plank, resting on your left side with knees bent and in line with your hips
2. Place your left elbow on the floor directly underneath your shoulder and in line with your body, having your forearm extended out in front of you to stabilise
3. Hold a filled water bottle in your right hand, right elbow bent and weight resting against your bicep
4. Lift your hips so your body is straight from knees to shoulders, while also pressing the water bottle up to the ceiling
