5 Calorie-burning Ladder Drills

Two Feet In Each Square

• Place two feet in each square before moving onto the next. You want to stay on the balls of your feet and move your feet quickly.

• Similar to the single foot in each square, the extra challenge to this move is to also pick up your knees. Think high knees down the ladder. Push your heart rate further and uses a bigger range of motion.

Jumping Jack Feet

• Jump two feet together inside a square, then jump out while moving down the ladder. Just as you would do regular jumping jacks, continue to use your arms in an overhead position to increase the heart rate.

• Stay on the balls of the feet as you jack them out and in down the entire ladder.
