The most badass exercise on the market, targets every muscle and improves explosiveness. Common among inmates.
Consists of doing a push up, going into a squat, jumping as high as you can, dropping back into a squat then into a pushup. A pull up can be added after the jump if a bar is available.
You can complete each day’s burpees all at once, or broken up and done at different times throughout the day.
For performance tracking purposes, the 25 burpees, 50 burpees, 75 burpees and 100 burpees days will be timed. So on those days, you will need to do your burpees all at once, not broken up throughout the day.
If for some reason you miss a day (which you won’t), you have to make up all the missed burpees the following day. So, you probably don’t want to miss day 99!
Any burpees you complete during your regular workout can count towards that day’s Challenge burpees.
If you don’t start the challenge with us today, you can “buy-in” at any time by doing ALL the missed day’s burpees on your first day.
The burpee is a full body, strength training exercise and is great for building and strengthening muscles. Each rep uses a number of muscles in the human body including trapezoids, lower back, pectorals, deltoids, triceps, hamstrings, glutes, calves, quadriceps, and abdominals.
The exercise is an effective way of increasing flexibility in the back, hips, legs, and core.
Because the exercise targets a number of muscles in the body, and because it is a high intensity exercise, muscle tone will improve in most parts of the body, resulting in a better looking appearance. Body conditioning will also improve.
The burpee is a short burst, anaerobic exercise. When burpees are performed at high intensity, your heart rate can rise significantly. Studies suggest burpee workouts burn up to 50% more fat than conventional exercises, and can also increase your metabolism.
You don’t need any equipment to do burpees. Just like push ups and sit ups, the exercise can be done anywhere and at anytime. All you need is a body, a floor and a lot of determination.
