Burpees. IMO, the most brutal bodyweight exercise in existence. Guaranteed to make your gym coach will love you, and to make your classmates hate you for eternity. Your coach WILL use these, I promise.

We do these in an 8-count:

1. Standing / rest position.
2. Squat
3. Squat-thrust
4-5. Push-up
6. Squat
7-8. Jump as high as you can from a full squat

If there is a more brutal bodyweight exercise, DON'T TELL MY ****ING TRAINER.

EDIT: Pic of a Burpee. We do them with an added pushup when we thrust the legs out into pushup position.

And for the second, I dunno what kind of shape you're in, but the first position of planche is pretty nasty and great for your core and balance. It's a static hold, a very basic gymnastic exercise.

1. Palms on the floor. Elbows slightly bent.
2. Knees on your elbows.
3. Hold and breathe.

Alternately, walk around on your hands if you're a badass.
