One, two.

Beautiful.

One, two.

Listen.

If you start to fatigue on this exercise, you can lower your arms.

You can even lose the weight.

You don't need the weight.

Everything you need in life is right here.

All you have to do is listen to your body.

If you don't play with your body, your body can't respond.

And that's what we're doing.

We're looking for a response, a very positive one-- nice-- that tells us to keep on going to round two.

When you're ready.

Yes.

Say yes, you're ready.

I know you're ready.

Arms up.

Left leg forward.

One, two.

Cross mid line.

One, two.

Just one, two.

One, two.

Nice.

One, two.

Nice.

Now imagine that you're striking something-- nice-- whether you want to get rid of it.

Whether you want to get rid of something, you're pushing it away.

You know what I do?

I always say, listen.

If you strike someone, if you need to strike someone, it's usually because you want to knock them out and take them home, or you just want to knock them out.

For two reasons.

That's how I get my dates.

I don't know.

We're going to move on.

And last one.

Woo hoo.

But you could.

Listen.

The more you do this, the better you get.

The more you do it, the better you get.

You adapt.

That's all we're doing.

It's called training.

Training your body so you can train your mind to be better.

Three.

Get ready.

Your right leg is going to lead, my friends.

Nice.

Spear.

Let's do it.

This time, let's try to take it really low.

Nice.

And really slow.

Slow.

Nice.

Slow.

So you can really rotate.

Do you see that you have all this room.

The more you do this, again, the better you'll get.

So say, for instance, maybe you're starting off today and it looks like that.

Well, guess what?

Eventually you're going to get all the way around.

Nice.

Just continue to practice.

Practice.

That's all it is.

Nice.

And we can do it together.

And there's so much more we can do.

Last one.

This is it.

Nice.

Let's switch.

Let's do the same thing on the other side.

Nice.

Start center and high.

Nice.

Did you hear the hi?

That was a soft command.

See that?

Because it's slow.

Soft command for slow.

We can change that.

Nice.

Also you can do this really tall.

You can also place a mat or something on the floor to protect your knee.

You can do that if it feels uncomfortable.

Nice.

Beautiful.

Rotate.

And take a moment to look at the place that you're going.

Take a moment to look.

Yes.

I think we're done.

You guys are excellent.

Don't forget to breathe.

If you forget to breathe, you're forgetting like one of the essential things in life.

That's going to help you.

In fact, the more you do this, the more you're going to improve your cardiovascular system.

And guess what?

We need it.

The younger you'll be.

Yeah.

The faster you'll be.

Nice.

One, two.
