ND
A LOT HOFF US ARE INTO THE
LATEST WORKOUT TRENDS.
I KNOW JASON IS.
TOTALLY.
WE HAVE ONE THAT DATES ALL
THE WAY BACK.
THIS IS CALLED SOFT STONES
AND IT DATES BACK CENTURIES.
ALI HOLMAN FROM CORECAMPER.COM,
I HAVE BEEN HOLDING THIS THING
FOR 3 MINUTES.
I AM ABOUT DONE.
THIS IS 15 POUNDS.
THIS IS THE DERIVATIVE OF THE
ATLAS STONES MADE OF CONCRETE,
100, 200 POUNDS THAT GUYS WOULD
CARRY AND HAVE CHALLENGES BUT
USING THESE SOFT STONES, YOU
CAN GET A FULL BODY WORKOUT AND
EVEN DOING THOSE TOSSES FOR THE
TEASE WE WERE OUT OF BREATH.
HEIDI HAS A 10-POUND DER.
I HAVE A 15.
THE IDEA IS IT IS FUN AND A
WAY TO MIX IT UP, BUT YOU CAN
WORK OUT EFFICIENTLY BECAUSE
YOU QUAN DO IT A SHORT AMOUNT
OF TIME.
YOU'RE NOT ONLY WORKING YOUR
ARMS BUT BECAUSE YOU'RE ON A
ROUND BALL THAT CORE IS
COMPLETELY FIRED UP.
I HAVE SEEN MEDICINE BALLS.
IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?
JUST THE SIZE.
YOU HAVE TO RECRUIT ALL THE
ACCESSORY MUSCLES THAT SUPPORT
THE TRICEPS, SHOULDERS.
YOU'LL SHOW US.
WE HAVE FIVE EXERCISES.
WE'LL START WITH A SQUAT THREE
AND WE'RE GETTING THAT
EXPLOSIVE MOVEMENT, BUT WITHOUT
JUMPING SO WE'RE GOING TO SQUAT
TOSS LIKE THIS.
SQUAT EXPLODE.
SO THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS IS
TO REALLY START AT THE BOTTOM
AND EXPLODE ALL THE WAY UP AND
FOLLOW THE MOMENTUM OF THE BALL
ON THE WAY DOWN.
30 SECONDS.
I'M TELLING YOU, YOUR HEART
RATE WILL BE THROUGH THE ROOF.
YOU CAN SEE.
SO BURP PIES.
BURPYS ARE CRUEL.
THEY DON'T MAKE T-SHIRTS I HATE
BURPIES BY COINCIDENCE.
THEY ARE CRUEL.
FEET OUT.
FEET IN.
BIG JUMP.
REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT
THE PLANK?
CORE IS COMPLETELY FIRED
UPRIGHT THERE.
THIS IS KILLING YOU, TOO.
KILLING IT.
I LOVE THEY HAVE TO DO IT AND I
WATCH.
A BIG JUMP AT THE TOP AND THE
EXPLOSION.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO JUMP.
IT IS STILL HARD WITHOUT US
JUMP.
PUSH-UPS.
WE'RE PUT OUR RIGHT HAND ON
THE SOFT STONE LIKE THIS AND
TAKE IT DOWN TO A PUSH-UP LIKE
THIS.
NOW ROLL IT OVER.
SURE.
LEFT HAND.
IT IS THAT ROLLING MOVEMENT.
GET MORE DEPTH.
YOU'RE ABLE TO GO DOWN A LITTLE
LOWER ON THAT PUSH-UP.
GUYS, WHAT TO YOU THINK?
OH, YEAH.
THAT SAYS ENOUGH.
FOUL WE'LL DO THE SHOULDER TO
SHOULDER.
WE'RE WORKING THE ENTIRE BODY
AND WE'LL PUT THE STONE ON OUR
RIGHT SHOULDER.
YOU ALMOST HAVE TO GRUNT WHEN
YOU DO THIS.
OVER SQUAT.
OVER YOUR HEAD.
WORKING THAT UPPER BODY, LOWER
BODY.
I THINK YOU GUYS SHOULD
GRUNT.
IT WILL BE MORE FUN.
YOU JUST PROVIDE THE AUDIO.
IT IS MORE FUN FOR ME.
STRAIGHT ARM PLANK LIKE
THIS.
CORE IS COMPLETELY FIRED UP.
PLANK PULL, SUCK THOSE ABS IN.
FLAT BACK.
ADD A LITTLE LOWER BODY.
PLANK PULL, FLAT BACK, LOWER
BODY.
HOW MUCH DO THESE SOFT
STONES COST?
THESE ARE ABOUT 50 DOLLARS,
BUT IT IS A GREAT PIECE OF AT-
HOME EQUIPMENT.
AND IF YOU'RE AT THE GYM THERE
ARE FIVE EXERCISES YOU CAN TRY
AND VERY EFFICIENTLY GET A
GREAT WORKOUT.
THROW IT.
OH.
LIKE THAT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
EVEN PLAYING CATCH WITH A
FRIEND WITH THESE, YOU CAN GET
A GREAT WORKOUT.
