300 MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS
Much like the squat thrust, this exercise works out almost every muscle group and is also a great cardio exercise! While in the push-up position, alternate bringing your knees toward your chest. Here’s how to do them:

We’re counting in singles today, so every time a knee comes up to your chest, that counts as one. If this is your second (or more) time doing these, try to beat your previous number by 10!
If you are new to this exercise, or you have bad knees, try low-impact mountain climbers:

You can always take a break if you need to.
