Lunge, Curl, and Press
Repetitions: 20
Stand with feet together, holding dumbbells. Step your right leg back
into a reverse lunge as you reach the weights down on either side of
your left foot.
Step your right foot back in to your left and return to standing as you perform a biceps curl, and then press the weights overhead into a shoulder press, rotating your palms away from you. That's one rep. Repeat with the left leg and continue alternating for a total of 20 reps.

Split-Stance Pushup
Repetitions: 5
Start in standard pushup position and move your right hand a few inches
forward and your left hand a few inches back. Stack your left leg on top
of your right, left toe pointed.
Lower into a pushup as you lift your left leg up slightly (opening your leg to the side about 25 degrees), and then squeeze your inner thighs to lower your left leg as you push back up to start.
If it’s too tough to do with straight legs, do it on your knees with your hands in the split position until you're ready for more. Do 5 reps in a row and then switch sides for 5 more reps.
