Greater or Less Warm-Up

A whole-group playing card warm-up. Players guess whether the next card will be higher or lower, then earn points, rest or reps depending on the result. It works in person or online.

1. 1Explain the card order, from 2 up to 10, then J, Q, K and A.
2. 2Turn over a card, then have everyone guess whether the next card will be greater or less.
3. 3A right guess scores one point and players hold a plank.
4. 4If the next card is the same value, everyone scores five points and rests.
5. 5A wrong guess scores zero points and players do ten reps of the exercise.
6. 6Rotate through squats, sit ups, push ups, lunges and squat thrusters.
