THRUSTERS Muscles targeted: whole body Grab two 5kg plates and stand feet hip width apart, with toes slightly turned out. Rack the plates on your forearms with elbows pointing out to the side of the room. Sit into a squat position whilst keeping your back straight, knees wide apart and your heels down. Drive up through your heels as if you are pushing the floor away from you, using the momentum as you come to the top of a squat to lift the plates over your head and lock your arms out. This counts as one rep.
Return to squat position with the plates racked on your forearms and explode back up, pushing the plates 3 towards the ceiling and repeat this as many times as you can in 60 seconds.
WOODCHOPS Muscles targeted: abs Holding one 5kg plate in both hands, stand with feet shoulder-width apart. Brace your abs and move the 5kg plate to the outside of your right thigh by bending your knees and twisting your core. Then extend your legs and swing the plate to your left and up towards the ceiling. Keep your back straight and abs braced throughout the whole movement. This counts as one rep. Repeat on the other side and complete as many reps, alternating each side in 60 seconds. 4
