Wheelbarrow Push-Up Squat
- Support partner (on left) holds ankles at shoulder height and standing firm and strong - to support their partner's bodyweight.
- Active partner (on right) maintains a plank and holds at the top of the press-up for a given time frame e.g 5 seconds.
- Whilst active partner performs a press-up, at the same time supporting partner performs a squat.
- During all movement active partner avoids sagging or dipping of the back.
- During all movement support partner avoids buckling of the legs, or weakening of the torso.
- Return to start position.
An alternative is supporting partner holding feet at the waist and performing a deadlift whilst active partner does a press-up or supporting partner not performing a squat and letting active partner only perform the press-up.
