Skill Notes

  • Goblin Punches (Shadow Boxing): Throw punches in the air, keeping your core tight and moving quickly. Alternative: Use light weights for added resistance.
  • Treasure Lift (Deadlifts): Keep your back straight, hinge at the hips, and lower the dumbbells to mid-shin. Alternative: Romanian deadlifts with a lighter weight.
  • Dragon Breaths (Mountain Climbers): Run in place, bringing your knees towards your chest. Alternative: March in place for lower intensity.
