The coronavirus pandemic has caused the world to self-isolate. People in lockdown, starving for some action, have taken to social media to catch up with their favorite stars. The stars, in turn, have obliged by sharing their day-to-day activities. A host of UFC fighters have been sharing workout techniques to help their fans who are deprived of gym visits. Retired fighter Georges St-Pierre too has jumped on the bandwagon. His workouts are simple ones that are easy to set and perform at home.

Georges St-Pierre shares yet another workout video

‘Rush’ took to Instagram and shared a workout video with the caption, “I’m not finished with your guys! Here’s a training combo to keep you busy today.”

For the push-up Rush says, “Keep your body straight and aligned throughout the exercise. Keep your elbows tight and your forearms motionless and perpendicular to the ground throughout the movement.”

The latest video is similar to the one shared by ‘Rush’ a week ago. In that exercise, he uses the opposite grip for his pull-ups.
