I work as a guard in a prison, and I've never seen anyone try this. Mostly you see inmates do some pushups and then flex and touch their chest for 30 mins....FEEL THE BURN!

Given enough time, any man may master the physical. With enough knowledge, any man may become wise. It is the true warrior who can master both....and surpass the result.

Interesting article, I enjoyed the injected humor of running down to get chains from HD and an orange suit...Maybe a video could be made and it could start a new trend...We could have...Burping with the oldies...

Seriously, this would be a good workout. Like when you go on vacation and still want a little exercise or if you are pressed for time. I can see benefits for cardio, strength, coordination, and agility.

We do something similar. We have two different versions. One is called a squat thrust and the second is pile up.

The squat thrust
Standing feet should width apart,
Squat down and place your palms on the floor
and Kick your feet out, into push up position. Preform that sequence in reverse and you have performed one.
We do about 50 of these at a time.

The Pile up is just like a squat thrust except you do a push up.
Now I think this is where it differs a little bit from the one described on the web site. Once we are in push up position we do a push up, but the number of push up you do has to match the number you are on.

One pile up, one push up, Pile# 2 2 push ups, Pile #3 three push ups and so on and so on.

These are a really good Cardio work out. Our black belt have to do 35 of these none stop. I can only do about five, for now

We used to do burpees in the British Army all the bloody time! One always had to jump up really high as the last move too. Another cruel twist, as somebody already mentioned, is the burpee with integrated press-up. Always a joy, never a chore [ahem].
