Bodyweight drills

[silverfox]

My workouts are more geared to functional strength and fitness than building a beach body so I tend to concentrate on bodyweight exercises, some ballistic dumbbell work and cardio likejump, interval sprints, tabata protocols etc.

I usually mix up things like chinups, pullups, handstand pushups, burpees, Hindu pushups and squats and regular pushups.

Two of my goals now are to get good form in the pistol and the one arm pushup as I really struggle with these.

Anyone else here work out using bodyweight exericse or is this an iron only zone?

As part of my training for footy, I include some BW exercises for balance work, (i.e. pistol single leg squats and 1 arm push ups progressions: http://www.higher-faster-sports.com/questionsandanswers43.html ) and GPP (i.e. burpees variations, mountain climbers, split shuffles, slalom jumps).

Ever look at the Navy Seal guide? I'm sure there are some great exercise ideas in there.
