It’s not very often that you can perform an exercise that works practically every muscle in the body including global and stabilising muscles without the use of any equipment. Add to this the cardio and hip mobilisation and you have the recipe for one of my favourite body weight exercises.
Start slowly with this exercise. If your hamstrings are tight you may want to have a slight bend at the knee and not drive the foot too far forward. If you struggle with the core stability to perform a perfect press up then miss out the press up phase and just stick with the leg movements.
Keep repetitions low to start with and work up to 60 seconds. How many can you perform in 60 seconds? Let me know below..
