Core/ Aerobic “Alligator” Walk

In this video you will see David performing a great core building, upper body strength producing exercise….and he does a great job at the technique of keeping his hips straight & shoulders over his hands.

This also can be considered an upper body pushing exercise, because of the load placed on…

So have someone…

I refer to the first exercise as knee tucks in an elevated foot position (or wheel barrel if done with a partner). This is a tough move, with Ed in an isometric pushup position, performing a knee tuck into mule kick.
The second exercise is an isometric dip position, while performing knee ups. This move…
