MEN:

In this episode of Boot Camp FX television you're going to see some great exercises to build your arms, shoulders, chest, back and abs.

Exercise Description and Sample Workout Below:

The first exercise sequence you'll see is the front lever pull up super set.

Extend your legs and hips straight up and out as high as possible and pull yourself up toward the bar.

Repeat until you reach momentary muscle failure. Immediately begin pull ups with a knee lift after the front lever pulls. Go to momentary muscle failure.

The next exercise in this super set is the static "L" pull up. Pull yourself up as high as possible while keeping your body in the "L" shape.

The final exercise in the front lever super set is the static pull up with knee lift. Stay as high as possible in the up position and pull your knees up and toward your chest. Repeat to momentary muscle failure.

This will be an advanced circuit for many people. Do your best and strive to improve in some way, everyday.

The next exercise is the static pike.

Lift yourself off the ground or floor by pressing your shoulders toward the ground and keeping your head and chest high. Hold to momentary muscle failure.

The final exercise is the Hindu push up (and 1/2).

Begin by elevating your legs and performing a Hindu push up with your hips high and "swoop" your chest down toward the ground.

In this video you'll see 3 weird pull up exercises to develop muscular strength, coordination, core strength, and stamina.

Many people mistakenly believe that you need to go to the gym to get in great shape. However, the ability to move and control your own body weight should be a prerequisite before integrating machines, dumbbells, barbells or other devices into your fitness program.

The first of the three pull ups exercises you'll see in this video is the typewriter.

This exercise is very challenging for most people. Pull yourself up toward one hand and maneuver over toward the other side of the bar while keeping your head as high as possible. Descend and repeat.

Some people choose to do this with straight legs. Others prefer to bend the knees or even slightly extend out. Beginners can do this from a low bar with feet on the ground.

The next pull up variation is the combat pull up. Raise your legs up to the bar and either rest the soles of your feet on the bar support (hard) or hook your feet over the bar. Pull your torso up as high as possible then repeat until you reach momentary muscle failure.

The next pull up variation is the jumping pull up with lateral leg raise. Curtis Ludlow performing a jumping pull up with a lateral leg raise for Boot Camp FX TelevisionThis should be easiest of the three exercises because, when done properly, you can take advantage of the momentum built from your jump and initiate your leg raise simultaneously.

Bonus exercise: Sprints! Always a top conditioning exercise.

Sample Workout:

Exercise #1 - Typewriter pull ups: Perform as many reps as possible then immediately begin combat pulls (exercise #2).

Exercise #2 - Combat Pull: Perform as many reps as possible

Exercise #3 - Sprint 100 meters.

Exercise #4 - Jumping pull ups with Lateral Leg Raise: Perform as many reps as possible (up to 10).

Repeat this circuit 10 times and record your time to completion.
