GET YOURSELF EXPEDITION FIT
Supplement your chin-ups with three more moves that Backshall uses to hone his adventure-ready physique
01/ TYRE FLIP 5 reps, 3 sets
With your feet at shoulder width, push back your hips, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Grip the tyre, with your hands on the treads (A). Drive up through your hips. Once the tyre is almost vertical (B), let it topple.
02/ DRAGON FLAG 10 reps, 3 sets
Lying on a bench, grip the top of it behind your head. Kick your legs upward (A). Point your toes and brace your body (B). Return to the starting position, taking care not to bend at your hips, or arch your back. That’s one rep.
03/ SKIN THE CAT 5 reps, 3 sets
In a dead hang, raise your knees
(A) and keep going so your feet pass through your arms, into the pike position. Move your feet round and towards the ground (B). Reverse by using your abs and hips to pull your legs up and over.
