And now for the final 5 Valslide exercises in this series (Plus 1) :

Valslide Spiderman Push Up:

This is just an insane push up. The spiderman part is lifting one leg up and pulling your knee towards your elbow as your let yourself down, and putting it back to the starting position as you push yourself back up. That in and of itself is a pretty good workout.

Now, stick a Valslide under the opposite hand of the leg that you are lifting and as you let yourself down, slide your hand out as far in front of you as you can and slide it back to the starting position as you push yourself up. Absolutely killer exercise. (I like to throw this in at the end of my workout and just go until failure).

Valslide Spider Climb Push Up Combo:

Spider Climb + Push Up. Simple as that.

Valslide Circular Push Up Fly:

Start in the push up position with a Valslide under one hand. As you let yourself down, perform a “fly” by sliding the Valslide out to the side.

However, instead of just sliding straight out to the side & back in, slide it in a circular motion, making a semicircle as you go down & completing the circle as you push yourself back up

Valslide Crawl:

Start in the plank position, (just like the push up position but resting on your elbows instead of your hands), keeping your body as straight as possible with each foot on a Valslide.

Then simply crawl on your elbows across the room or to a certain destination. If you want to you can even crawl backwards back to the starting position.

Valslide Tricep Push Up:

Start in the push up position with a Valsilde under each hand. Move one hand forward and the other hand back. Perform a push up. Switch which hand is forward and which one is back. Perform another push up. Repeat.

Valslide Modified Tricep Push Up:

This is the exact same as the modified tricep push up exercise, but on your knees rather than your toes in order to make the exercise more simple.

And that concludes the 5 part series! There are a TON more variations of the different exercises that you can do with Valslides like performing the push up variations with one arm raised, with your feet raised (on a bench or exercise ball) or by performing some of the exercises with dumbbells in your hand(s). There are so many, but the ones I have posted here are good enough to give you an amazing workout without overloading you with options.

If you want to see more videos, I will continue to upload videos of different variations of the exercises to my Youtube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/ShawnHorwoodFitness

In a couple days I’ll be posting some Valband exercise demonstrations so that you can see some of the exercises you can do with the Valband after which I will be running a contest where I will be giving away different Valslide packages to a few lucky people.
