Thunder Stomps: Alternating Wide-Stance Knee Lifts Brain Break

What the coach says

The words of this video, from its captions.

Before we ride the storm, we have to wake up the thunder. First, check your feet. Take a big, wide step. Wider. Make your legs like a sumo wrestler. Good. You look so strong already. Now, watch my knees. I don't lift them forward like running. I lift them out to the side. We are opening the gate wide. We are going to do. Ten thunder stomps. Five on this leg, five on that leg. Keep your chest up like a queen. Ready? Lift your knee out and stomp. That's one. Other leg, open the gate, stomp. That's two. Keep those feet wide. In basketball, this wide stance stops the other team. Show me your brave face. three four make the floor shake five six wow look at that power loudest ones yet eight nine ten boom nice thunder
