A mobility-to-strength flow pairing the caterpillar walk with push-ups – great for anyone who wants to warm up their whole chain and press in one go.

The caterpillar walk stretches your hamstrings and mobilizes your shoulders on the way out, then push-ups pick up the pressing work once you're in position. It flows naturally and covers more range of motion than most one-minute workouts manage.

Walking-based dynamic stretches before pressing movements have been shown to improve push-up performance and reduce injury risk – making this order more effective than doing either move alone.
