Crossfit Lillington – Mayhem Affiliate – Kids (5-8)
Warm-up
Circle kids up and work on non-verbal communication. The coach stands in the middle of the circle and cues with body language only what movements to perform, such as air squats, push-ups, etc. Switch between movements for 5-7 minutes.
Skill
Broad jumps and frog jumps:
For frog jumps, play “frog on a log.” Break kids into two teams. One person is the frog and the rest are the logs. They will log roll (on the floor) towards the frog, and the frog will jump over each one. Let each kid take a turn to be the frog.
For broad jumps, line kids up and set up a cone 15-20 yards out. Perform a few heats of broad jumps races, but model how to use the arms to help jump far and land in a squat position, going directly into the next jump. No steps in between!
Metcon (Time)
Cartwheel races:
Break kids into teams of 2-3. One at a time, they will cartwheel down 15 yards, touch the line, run back, and tag the next teammate. Substitute bear crawls if they can’t cartwheel.
