specific exercise questions - technique

[TMUNK]

I am currently training a senior in High School who has just received a scholarship from University of Kentucky to play Soccer. UK's strength coach sent a Summer Manual for Whitney to train by and there are a few exercises that I'm not sure are. Here they are, if anyone can help me with their idea of what that exercise is and how to do it please let me know.

1. Reverse push-up
2. Curl & Press Lunge
3. Windmill Press
4. Glute Hams (I think this is Hyper-extensions)
5. Swings
6. Get-ups
7. Hindu Push-ups

As I mentioned these exercises are for Soccer players so I hope that can help you to figure out what exercises the strength coach has assigned. :confused:

OK, some of these have been handled. But here's a few more pointers.

4. Glute Hams. This is actually a "reverse" hyperextension. You lie with your upper body flat on a high surface (there are also dedicatewd machine for this) with your hips just at the edge and raise and lower your legs. It's a bitch of an exercise and it's nothing like the hyperextension when it comes to results. Great for working the lower back/glutes/hams and thus help prevent injury.

6. Get-ups. This is kind of hard to explain but it's about holding a dumbell in one hand and getting up off the floor. You can find a decent description here. And this page has some pictures (scroll down a little).

2. Curl and press lunge. Never headr of... :confused:
