When I hear your lovely voice, I sit up and listen � 20 sit ups
(lock heels)
Roses are read, Violets are blue, Super Planks are horrid, but
I�ll do 20 of them for you � 20 super planks
My heart skips a beat every time I see you � 30 skips then 5
pushups x6
I would run to the end of the earth for you � 5 shuttle runs
My tummy goes tight, when I think of you � 30 ab crunches then
20 oblique crunches (each side)
Together we climb every mountain � 50 mountain climbers
With you by my side I believe I can fly � 25 shoulder flies
You are my super man! � 20 supermans
Together we reach for the stars � 50 star jumps
