Squat thrusts are a great martial arts conditioning & strength training exercise because they work every area of the body (i.e. legs, core, upper body, etc.). The videos below show you how to do squat thrusts in order to improve your martial arts conditioning and strength. Squat thrusts are similar to Burpees but without the jump at the end.
All stretches and exercises should be supervised by a trained martial arts instructor to ensure the proper technique is being utilized and to avoid potential injuries. For additional stretches and exercises, please visit the main Conditioning section.
