Pistol squat to Negativa pushup (leg forward)
Bodyweight (BW) unilateral leg-strength
•
2m 9s

Whilst essentially a lower/upper-body strength integration in its isolated form, as a floor-entrance tool it immediately connects with the 'Lizard-crawl step-under', for example, opening up the world of close-floor locomotion.
