We're practicing interrupting prolong sitting with activity.
I'm Earl Cureton.
This is my daughter, Sari.
We are here to help you get moving for the next eight minutes.
So go ahead, get up.
Let's start moving.
For this moving activity we're trying for a 100 pushups.
I'm gonna have Sari over here count me in as I go to see if I can get there.
It's just a number I set, though.
So first, let's get warmed up.
I'm gonna start off with some high knees and get those legs nice and loose.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
Now to get my arms nice and loose, open and close hands, let's go all the way around.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15.
We'll go from there with some butt kicks.
One, two, three, four, five six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
Next, we'll do some skaters.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
Trunk twisters.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
And now to get your neck nice and loose, let's take it all the way around in circle.
Three, four, five, six, the other way, one, two, three, four, five, six.
Back and forth.
One, two, three, four.
All right, let's get started.
Let's see if we can get this done.
- Ready?
- Down in the position.
I got my knee pads here so I can get down, put my knees in there so I don't hurt them too bad.
Put myself in position.
I'm gonna do these in sets of 20.
So I'll take a break in between.
I got the timer set over here.
I got my calendar over here.
And we'll see if we can get it done.
Count them out for me, Sari.
- Are you ready?
- Ready?
- And go.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, five more, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
- [Earl] Yeah, we'll take a breath.
- Not for too long.
- Not too long?
Okay.
How long are you gonna give me?
- I don't know.
You're already a little winded.
- Well, just a little bit.
I'm catching it now.
I'll get it together.
I'm gonna go with the second set of 20 right now.
I'm going to keep my hands kind of wide apart right here.
And I'm ready to go.
Sari, you got me?
- Yep.
Got you.
- Let's go.
- And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, five more.
16, 17, 18, 19 and 20.
- Good.
Oh man, that's tough, Sari, I tell you.
- You look like you're struggling.
But it's okay.
- Start to sweat a little bit.
- That's okay.
I kinda appreciate that.
You need a towel?
- No, I'm good right now.
I'm good.
So when you're working on this, it's okay for you to take a break in between to catch a breath.
But you do have that timer set.
So you want to try to keep it going.
So, are you ready?
Let's start with this next set.
You ready?
- Yeah, let's go.
Let's go do it.
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20.
- Man, I get (indistinct).
- You can also do them on your knees, right?
The pushups?
- Yeah, you can modify the pushups and make them different depending on what you can do and build up till you get to a different position with it.
So you can also do that, but let's try to knock out one more set of 20 then, okay?
- All right, let's do it.
- I'm ready to go.
I think I can do it.
Let's see.
- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20.
- Well, where am I met?
Is that 80?
- Yeah, 80.
- That's 80.
- You got 20 more.
- Yeah, you down to the last 20 right now?
It gets a little tougher as you go along, but you can set different numbers.
You don't have to be the bar set this high.
So I got it there.
And I'm gonna try.
You think I can make it.
- I hope so.
You came this far.
Tired of counting too.
(chuckling) - Well, if you can also rock back and forth- - Are you ready?
- No, keep your arms loose.
You want to get the blood flowing through your arms, especially for this last set.
You want to make sure that you are, okay.
I think I might be ready to try to knock it out.
You got me?
- Let me shine you real quick.
- Let's go.
- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
- Whew, man!
I think I almost got there.
Is that it?
- It's done.
- Geez, man, that's a tough workout right there.
Remember, loosen it up.
Let it go.
Good job.
Good job!
