Jumping Jacks
This foodspring video shows you how to do jumping jacks correctly. Jumping jacks are exercises that work your full body – and not only your circulatory system, but also your muscles and your endurance. Stand upright with your arms at your sides, hands touching your thighs. Now bring your arms to the side and up over your head until your fingertips touch, while jumping in the air to land with your feet spread apart. Then jump your feet back together while bringing your arms back down to your sides.

Superman Plank
This foodspring video shows you how to do a superman plank correctly. Start in the high plank position, supporting yourself on your toes and your hands – which should be directly under your shoulders. Keep your abs and glutes tensed so that your body forms a straight line. Now lift one arm and the opposite leg without falling. This exercise demands extra stability from your core in order to keep you balanced without falling down sideways. Hold the position for a few seconds, then switch to the other arm and leg.
