a. Begin standing upright with a dumbbell in each hand.

b. Forcefully lower the dumbbells to the floor, and kick your feet back so that you’re now in a push-up position.

c. Do an explosive push-up that results in the dumbells leaving the floor for a halfsecond on the way up. Absorb the landing by lowering your chest to the floor.

d. From the pushup position, bring your feet up under your midsection, and rise with the dumbbells held at your sides. Explode into a jump, and absorb the landing by entering a squat position. Repeat.

Harness Your Power

 

 

 

Oftentimes, power in fitness is misunderstood. People either assume power training is a quick, concentrated workout session or mix it up completely with strength training. In reality, though, it’s a specific type of fitness focus that’ll make you a better athlete if you work at it. “Power is the ability to exert maximum muscular contraction instantly in an explosive burst of movements,” our Fitness Chillosophers say. “The two components of power are strength and speed.” At the end of the day, improving your power is vital to whichever sport you play. Try these exercises, and, before you know it, you’ll be able to create it, control it, maintain it, and accelerate it.

 

 

 

a. Begin standing upright, holding a weighted bar horizontally.

b. Bend forward until your knuckles are on the floor. Bend your knees slightly so that you’re in a squat position. Hold for a few seconds.

c. Keeping your lower body position in tact, raise the bar from the floor to above your head in one swift motion. Hold for a few seconds.

d. Spring upwards, entering an upright position, all while keeping the bar above your head. Return to a squat position, and repeat.
