All right, so we're going to start out with stretching for our cardio kick-boxing workout. And the first stretch we're going to do, we're going to bring our right leg in and our left leg out, and we're going to stretch towards our toe, feeling it in the back of our knee. And we're going to count off the stretch to twenty. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). And we're going to switch, bringing in our left leg, and our right leg out. Same stretch, really feeling it in our leg. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). Bringing both of our heels in, we're going to do the butterfly stretch, and some people like to bring it in very close to their bodies. Some people like to have it out farther, whatever works for you. Key to this stretch is bringing your knees down until you feel it on the insides of your thigh. Count off: one, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). And both of our legs in front of us, stretch towards your toes. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). Now we're going to bring our right leg over, put our elbow on our knees, and stretch looking that way, stretching our lower backs. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). And switch. This is called the Hollywood stretch. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). We're going to finish off stretching our arms, bringing our wrists to our...our wrists together, stretching out. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen) seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). And switch. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). Bringing our elbow up, pressing down on it until we feel the stretch here. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, (fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen, (twenty). And switch. Push down on this elbow. One, (two), three, (four), five, (six), seven, (eight), nine, (ten), eleven, (twelve), thirteen, fourteen), fifteen, (sixteen), seventeen, (eighteen), nineteen. All right. And, that is the stretching we do before our workouts to get our bodies ready to exercise.
