10 Burpees with Push Up
100 Skips (add tricks - side 2 side, boxer, double hop, jacks)
Break
100 Skips
10 Up Up Down Downs
100 Skips with Tricks

30 count of horse stance punches (be powerful!)
100 Skips with tricks
Repeat as desired

The Lower Body:
100 Skips
10-20 Squats with weight or without
100 Skips (add tricks - side 2 side, boxer, double hop, jacks)
