Wall Push-Ups to High Knees

Many of us know that wall push-ups are the best beginner variation for push-ups. But did you know you can make them extremely rewarding by doing knee tucks after each rep?

Stand two steps away from the wall then bend your elbows until your face almost touches the wall and then extend your arms until they’re straight. Raise one knee as high as possible and quickly lower it and raise the opposite knee before doing another push-up.

Squats are undoubtedly one of the best full-body exercises. Well, you can make them more rewarding by throwing a side-punch every time you rise.

Squat until your thighs are parallel to the floor and rise as you throw a punch to the right side with your left arm. In the next rep, punch to the left side with the right arm.
