A slightly different kind of burpee. We normally use these in countdown situations. For instance, we will do 15 of each exercise, then 14, then 13 and so on down until we get to 1. Sometimes, if we're feeling extra energetic, we'll count back up, too!

A sweet exercise used to gain more upper body power. There are many ways to do explosive pushups. This one is a lot more dynamic and should be done as the last in a progression of explosive pushups. 

Our surfers love to hate these! They are an excellent way to help develop upper body power. They work well with enabling us to do better burpees - the kind that don't screw up the lower back because we use it so much to stand upright.

A variation of the old upper-body standard. We use these when folks complain that they can't go all the way down during their pushups. Well, we want a full range of motion, so we'll put a person in a position where full ROM can be achieved.

An exercise that work the core from an active and stabilizing standpoint and the pecs from a stabilizing standpoint. Also, if doing enough of these, the triceps will get worn out big time!

Sweet explosive exercise that needs to be at the end or near the end of a progression of explosive chest exercises. Try to thrust the body as upright as possible without bending at the waist.

Nice way to spend some time at the beach or wherever your spot may be! Hook up the TRX. Strap in, and hit the core, pecs and triceps in this one!

One of our favorite core exercises. Like many others, this can be made to be as easy or difficult as needed. It's a self-limiting exercise, too, meaning if you're doing it, then you're doing it right. It might not be as good as somebody else's, but you're still working the core, triceps and pectorals!

Amazing exercise that forces us to maintain core stability so we can maintain shoulder stability in order to remain upright for the duration. Don't be crazy and do this exercise if there are shoulder issues.

Another way of doing the always reliable pushup. This one requires the use of an FMT or some other type of fitness tubing. Wrap it around the mid back. Make sure it's stretched while in the hands. That creates pressure on both the descent and the ascent.

Fun exercise that works on stability, mobility and strength throughout the body. Make sure to not take any shortcuts. Do the entire movement, trying to be as lengthy as possible.
