Default Create Your Own Exercise?

Sometimes I get bored and create my own little combinations of exercise. My favorite is a combination of a burpee, mountain climbers, and push ups. I basically drop myself down like I'm doing a burpee then do mountain climbers for 10 seconds, stop do five pushups, and then complete the burpee. It really wears me out so I usually only do three or four of them but they are a quick thing I know I can do when I'm bored.

I was just wondering do any of you have your own little combinations that you've come up with? If so what are they? I'd love to try some of them out.

I do something similar holding a medicine ball. Good times, good times.

Hi there,

I've created my own routine by searching around online for exercises that will accomplish what my personal goals are.

A website that I recently just stumbled upon is www.bodyrock.tv and it has great exercises!

Good luck!

Huh, I really like that! I don't have any to match.

But...

I have an upper body favorite combination and a lower body favorite.

Upper body:
Laying on a flat bench using dumbbells with palms facing forward press up X reps, then immediately do a pec fly X reps, then face the palms together and immediately press up again X reps. Repeat using an incline bench.

Lower body:
20 squats
Run up and down the stairs 3:00
Wall sit 3:00
Repeat
