"Fit-Ful" Fridays blog for 7/10/09

Deck of Cards Game:
Ok---Here is a fun game to try. This was an idea of Jillian Michaels, from the Biggest Loser:
You have a deck of playing cards. Keep all cards in, but shuffle.
On a separate piece of paper, assign an exercise to each of the following:
  • King
  • Queen
  • Jack
  • Joker
  • Spade
  • Club
  • Heart
  • Diamond

Each time you pull a card, read the amount and the type, ie: 7 Hearts.

If you decided that Heart would be push ups, you do 7 push ups.

Make the King, Queen, Jack and Joker cards something challenging to you!

Those can each be exercises done for 30 secs or 60 secs. Up to you!

*When I play this game with my students, Ace is a 60 sec. rest.

You're welcome!


Peace and health!
Lesa
