Explanations: Knees to Elbows:This youtube video shows some good examples of various Knee/Leg Raise exercises used.
YouTube - CrossFit Knees to Elbows Burpee: To perform a Burpee with a pushup, you will begin in a squat position with hands on the floor in front of you.
(1)Kick your feet back, while simultaneously lowering yourself into the bottom portion of a pushup. Your arms will not be extended.
(2)Immediately return your feet to the squat position, while simultaneously pushing "up" with your arms. You will perform a pushup as you return your feet to the squat position.
(3)Leap up as high as possible from the squat position.
(4)Repeat, moving as fast as possible.
Double Unders: Jump rope with the rope going under your feet twice while airborn.
Substitutions:
Kettlebell swings: I assume a dumbbell would work just as fine.
Knees to elbows: Follow the directions in the video. If you can't do knees to elbows, bring your legs up to parallel or as high as you can.
Wall ball shots: The "standard" substitute for Wall Ball is either dumbbell or barbell thrusters. Since you can't (or shouldn't, anyway) actually throw the dumbells in the air, use about twice the specified ball weight (40 lbs or so instead of 20) and do them as explosively as possible . . . but it's still quite different.
Better to follow
David Heyer's directions for a homemade medicine ball:
1. take an old, or cheap, basketball
2. cut a slit in it
3. stuff with sand
4. sew or glue the slit closed (optional), and then tape up with heavy tape (Americans call it duct tape)
This gives you a perfectly functional 18-22 pound ball (9 or 10 kg) for under $4.
One note from myself: Have 911 on speed dial!! Good Luck Everyone!!
