The 1-Legged Death Crawl
In this post I wanted to do a quick video on an exercise I love to do.
It’s called the 1-legged death crawl and it’s an awesome way to finish up your workouts.
It’ll get your heart rate exploding and if you go too hard then you might want to bust out the puke buckets!
I’ve had a couple people throw up while doing these so proceed with caution…
All you really need is a hardwood floor, a towel and a weight plate. Put the plate on top of the towel and put another towel under 1 foot.
Then all you have to do is push the plate down the floor, turn around and then come back.
Simple enough?
If 1-leg is too hard for you (wuss!) in the death crawl then you can also just use 2 feet instead of one.
These plate pushes are very metabolically demanding meaning they’ll take a lot of energy to do. And thus, burning a boatload more calories than running around on a treadmill.
And with that, hope you have a great weekend and let me know how you do in the 1-legged death crawl!
To your success,
Josh
And as an extra bonus I wanted to post the inspirational video that motivated me to do this exercise: The Death Crawl!
If you’re having a bad day or need that extra inspiration to achieve your goals then check out this video.

Awesome motivation video josh. For us UK folk that don’t follow American football, how far did he end up carrying him? What film is it from?

No response. What’s that about Josh?

Hey Chris, sorry your comment must have slipped by. The film clip is from a movie called “Facing the Giants.” He ended up carrying him 100 yards, twice as much as he was supposed to. 100 yards is about 92m or 300 feet.
