I know that you hear the word ‘burpee’ and visions of junior high may turn your stomach…burpees may have been a ‘four letter word’ at one time (or at least invoke four letter words). The truth is, it’s time to get back to ‘old school’ training – tried and true methods of getting and staying fit. It seems that in an effort to modernize things, we’ve forgotten about the simple things that work. Like jumping rope and burpees.
Burpees are the new black and everyone can benefit.
This ONE exercise works dozens of muscles at the same time. In fact, this exercise is used by the top athletes with their conditioning. It’s why they are so ripped.
But you don’t do enough of them (if any) because you might think you’re not “athletic” enough. The truth is that this ONE exercise can literally smash a plateau and jump start fat loss when combined with other exercises.
You can always modify a burpee at first (or when you get tired) with a full body extension or a burpee walk out.
Of course there are ways to intensify the already challenging burpee too and I’ve got tons of ways to do just that in my Challenge Burpee program.
Here’s a sample workout for you to try. Do 30 seconds of work with a 5 to 10 second rest in between each exercise. Do this entire set 3 to 5 times:
- frogger burpee
- prisoner reverse lunge
- inchworm push up
- double jump burpee
- plank with alternate leg lift
Feel free to take a 30 second break in between sets if necessary, maintaining great form for each exercise is your number one priority.
Challenge Burpee is full of the ‘tried and true’ burpees in combination with body weight exercises to blast fat and up YOUR fitness game.
