1. Hand-Release Push-ups

2. Plyo Push-Ups
Again, get in the push-up position, then lower down to the floor. Push hard off the floor, taking your hands off the ground for a moment before going back down toward the ground.
3. Russian Twist
Take a seat on the floor. Be sure that your heels are touching the ground, or challenge yourself by keeping them lifted. Keep your hands to your chest, twisting from side to side.
4. Single-Leg Burpees
Get into the squatting position, placing your hands on the floor in front of your feet. With one foot on the floor, jump your feet back while lowering your body. Bring your feet back to your hands, then jump in the air with the same foot that was left on the ground. Repeat this exercise for 30 seconds on each side.
