Behind the Back Clapping Pushup




Disclaimer: Don't break your face trying this. 

I'm sure you took a look at that title and said WHAT the HELL is THAT!?!?!

The guy in the video says that it's a "muay thai pushup" but its real (and most useful) name is the behind the back clapping pushup. Any strange bodyweight exercise should just have a name that describes the exercise, in my opinion. Otherwise it gets confusing.

"Hey Tim check out these Flying Chipmunk Roundabouts!"

"Lame! I do 3 reps of those every morning after my set of Squealing Socket Grinders."

Obviously, "behind the back clapping pushup" is a lot simpler to explain. I believe Muay Thai fighters actually do use this pushup in training, but that doesn't make it a muay thai pushup exclusively. Football players do squats, but that doesn't make them Football Squats. Anyway, to see it in action, check below:


Intense!! Strength without weights never looked harder!
