In the push-up position, hold a dumbbell in each hand and alternately move one dumbbell to the opposite shoulder by bending one arm (return to the push-up position in between).

Caution:
Keep the torso stable and don't let it sag (actively tense the torso muscles).

Lighten:
Less weight.

Harden:
More weight; additional weight (on the back).

Variant:
Combine exercise with push-ups (i.e. bend and stretch left arm, push-up, bend and stretch right arm, push-up, etc.).

2 dumbbells

1 weight vest/weight disc/sandbag ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)

Push-up position (high support, face/look down), walk backwards with your hands and slowly straighten up until you can touch your feet, bring your hands forwards back to the starting position (possibly even further than head height).

Attention:
Do not let your upper body sag (actively tense your core), do not wiggle your hips back and forth.

Lighten:
Do not move your hands so far backwards/forwards.

Harden:
Stable surface (for your feet).

1 balance cushion/balance board ► Make the exercise more difficult (unstable surface)

Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms stretched out to the side (shoulder height - palms facing the floor), bend your arms and touch your shoulders with your hands, stretch your arms back to the starting position.

Harden:
Hold additional weight on your arms or in your hands.

Variant:
Arms held out in front instead of stretched out to the side. A combination of arm positions is also possible: after touching the shoulders, extend the arms alternately frontally or laterally.

2 weight cuffs/weight balls/dumbbells ► make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)

Exercise description:
Stand upright, arms outstretched in front of you, palms facing inwards, move arms up and down in a staggered manner (height of the crown of the head and chest).

Attention: Always keep arms almost fully extended and never lower than chest height.

Lighten: Extend arms less.

Lighten: Hold additional weight on the arms or with both hands.

2 weight cuffs/weight balls/dumbbells/1 weight disc ► Make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)

Two participants stand opposite each other and reach out their left/right hand (wrist grip). The participants try to hit their opponent on the buttocks with their free hand without being hit themselves. Who gets more hits? Switch sides after each or several rounds.

No material required

The participants try to slap another participant on the buttocks. Whoever gets a "hit" is eliminated and performs an additional exercise (e.g. wall sit, push-ups, forearm support). Which participant is never touched?

No material required

While kneeling, hold a ball with your arms stretched out in front of you (chest height), upper body upright, toes pointing towards the floor, raise one leg at a time from the starting position to get into a deep squat (place foot flat on the floor, maintain an angle of approximately 90 degrees in the knee joint - end position of a squat), then return to the kneeling position.

Attention:
The medicine ball practically does not move and is always held at the same height. Accordingly, you really need to make sure that you adopt a low squatting position.

Lighten:
Arms in front without additional weight; more upright squatting position (greater angle in the knee joint).

1 (medicine) ball

Depending on the size of the group, one or more participants are selected to represent the "dogs". Their task is to catch the other participants running around on all fours by bringing them to the ground. If a participant touches the ground with at least one knee, they also become a "dog". The participant who is still standing on their feet at the end wins the game.

Variant:
For safety reasons, touching the participants (e.g. on the legs) can also be sufficient to catch them.

No material required

Stand upright on the balls of your feet with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a skipping rope in your hands. Jump steadily in place and simultaneously swing the rope (under your feet and overhead), with the rope making two complete rotations during one jump (double jump).

Attention:
Do not put your heels down (jump on the balls of your feet/tips of your toes). Keep your upper body upright (tense your core). The rope is accelerated from the wrists (very fast circling) so that two rope rotations are possible during a jump.

Lighten:
Simple jumps (slower swinging - one rope rotation per jump).

Harden:
Additional weight (on the feet).

Variant I:
Pull the tips of your feet towards your knees (bend your feet) with each jump.

Note:
Two single jumps replace one double jump (1 double under = 2 x single rope jumps) in training. Instead of jumping rope, the knee lift (skipping) is often chosen as a substitute (no material required).

Note:
Two single jumps replace one double jump in training (1 double under = 2 x single rope jumps). Instead of jumping rope, the knee lift (skipping) is often chosen as a substitute (no material required).

Indoor cycling involves cycling indoors, whereby the workout on the indoor bike is even slightly more efficient than cycling outside. Whether for burning fat, strengthening the cardiovascular system, ergo for health or for the muscles, training with the indoor bike offers a holistic workout and entails hardly any risks.

Variant:
Choose a constant basic speed or vary the intensity by constantly changing speed (interval training).
