Dragon Walk

Dragon Walk:

The Dragon Walk is a great exercise to work the chest and shoulders with the push-ups, while hitting the core with the mountain climbers at the same time! Quite a challenging exercise for beginners, so if your new to the gym you should start with regular push-ups until mastered.

As you perform this exercise make sure to touch elbow to knee (same side) and get as low as possible in the push-up. Repeat.

Single-Leg Burpee


Single-Leg Burpee:

Most of you who have been in the gym for some time have gotten aquinted with the 'burpee' - and love it of course!

Here we are performing the burpee with one leg. This makes it much harder to do because there is less stability and we are placing more weight/resistance on each leg.

NOTE: Make sure you master the regular burpees before attempting it with one leg!
