Buddy Up: The Partner Workout

Squat and Dip

Targets shoulders, triceps, butt, and legs

Partner A holds a medicine ball in both hands and stands 1 foot from a wall with feet shoulder-width apart. A leans back and slides down wall into a squat until thighs are parallel to floor and knees are aligned over ankles. Partner A then raises ball overhead and holds it there, arms straight and both shoulders against wall.
Partner B stands 12 to 18 inches in front of A's feet, facing away, then squats and rests palms on A's knees, fingers facing forward.
B bends elbows and lowers into a dip, then presses up and repeats.
B does 20 dips while A maintains squat. Switch positions and repeat.
