The tire flip is an exercise that works the entire body, starting from a deadlift position and ending with a giant tire being flipped over. Each flip moves the tire farther in one direction until a set has been completed. It can be performed for time or reps as part of a functional fitness or athleticism-focused workout.

- To lift the tire, extend through the hips, knees, and ankles, driving into the tire and up.
- As the tire reaches a 45 degree angle, step forward and drive a knee into the tire. As you do so adjust your grip to the upper portion of the tire and push it forward as hard as possible to complete the turn. Repeat as necessary.
