The Suples Bulgarian Bag Match is one of the FIRST and ORIGINAL Suples Workouts to date! Although this workout is only 13 minutes long, it is not to be underestimated! Your grip strength and muscular endurance will DEFINITELY be put to the test, as well as your overall WILLPOWER. Remember, in the end, it's all about YOU VS. THE BAG! So, are you ready to win?

This exercise is one of my all-time favorite movements and although it gained popularity through “animal” based movement practices, the Step-Through origins can be traced back to the warm-ups, solo drills, and movement prep of many forms of Martial Arts and combat sports, more specifically a variation can be found being performed in Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling!
The Step-Through is a bodyweight exercise that is not so easy to perform and master. Engaging the core and maintaining proper stability throughout the movement is only a few of the important steps to keep in mind during this exercise, which will really test your bodyweight strength, coordination, and balance.
Breaking this drill down, and practicing Mountain Climbers and Sit Throughs beforehand, will really help you to build enough strength and mobility to perform the Step-Through.
Enjoy!
