The Spiderman vs. Superman Workout

Are you a fan of superhero comics?

Here is a fun little mini workout giving Spiderman & Superman a run for their money!

The Superman

1. Lie face down on your stomach with arms and legs extended. Keep your neck in a neutral position.

3. Hold for two to five seconds and lower back down to complete one.

The Alternating Superman

1. Lie face down on a mat with your arms stretched above your head (like superman)
2. Raise your right arm and left leg about 5-6 inches off the ground (or as far as you comfortably can).
3. Hold for 3 seconds and relax.
4. Repeat with the opposite arm and leg.

Spider-man Pushup

1. Start in the standard push up position, with your hands under your shoulders and your body in a straight line
2. As you lower your torso towards the floor, bend your elbows out to the side.
3. At the same time, lift one foot off the floor, bend the knee to the side up to hip level.
4. As you bend your elbows out to the side and lower your torso toward the floor,
5. Repeat this action, alternating side

Spider-man Crawl

1. Begin in a full (not elbow) plank position.

3. Continue pulling yourself forward, aiming to place your forward foot right by your hands
