Skill Notes

• Elven Leaps (Box Jumps or Chair Jumps): Focus on soft landings and jumping with both feet. Alternative: Step-ups for reduced impact.
• Forest Steps (Walking Lunges): Keep your torso upright and take large steps, lowering until your back knee nearly touches the ground. Alternative: Static lunges if space is limited.
• Bow Stance (Single-Leg Deadlifts): Keep your back straight, hinge at the hips, and lower the dumbbells to mid-shin. Alternative: Romanian deadlifts with a lighter weight.
• Swift Feet (High Knees): Run in place, lifting your knees as high as possible. Alternative: March in place for lower intensity.
