Day 10 - Star Jumps
By WWTW Fundraising on
Welcome back for another day! Today’s challenge is star jumps.
Why star jumps?
The challenge
- 8 sets of 10 reps
- 4 sets of 20 reps
Find a rhythm that feels comfortable for you. The goal is to see how many you can do, and if you’re feeling up for it, push yourself to go that extra mile.
How to do star jumps
- Full Movement: Extend your arms and legs as far as they can go to maximize the movement.
- Soft Landing: Remember to land softly to reduce the impact on your joints and muscles.
Tips for success
- Warm Up: Start with a light warm-up to prepare your muscles and reduce the risk of injury.
- Pace Yourself: Break the 80 star jumps into manageable sets according to your fitness level.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink water before, during, and after your workout to stay hydrated.

The challenge

You don’t have to do all 80 tricep dips at once. Break it into manageable intervals that suit your fitness level. For example:
