I was reading the thread, thinking, "Eh, I prefer the Ultimate Burpee," then lightning struck, and I thought, "Wait a minute...why not both?"
So you do your C&J, right, but when you return the bar to the floor, you kick back you legs and do your push-up (or two) with the bar still in your hands. Because the weights are still on it, you'll also have to spend extra energy stabilizing so the bar won't roll out. The ROM won't be great, but because of the angle, you'll hit the pectoralis minor a bit better (which I is usually the more neglected of my chest region since I don't dip much).
What do you guys think?
I beleive I mentioned this in my review of Ross's latest book "Infinite intensity" but yeah, it's a great exercise. Do it with a sandbag for some extra hell.Madmick said:I just had an Urban-like moment.

I saw some hockey players do this on a news reports. This trainer who's name is T R Goodman i think, was making them do it. It looks like a good exercise.
