burpee

Burpee conditioning workout, this evening I ran to the football pitch placed my hoody and water bottle approximately 15 meters apart and after a quick warm up, I started by doing one burpee by my hoody then walking the 15 meters to my water bottle and doing 2 burpees and so on up to and including 21 burpees for a total of 231 burpees.

This burpee conditioning workout will quickly convince you that your own natural bodyweight provides plenty of resistance for an ass-kicking workout that blasts your stamina and fat loss through the roof.

The burpee is performed in four steps:

* From a standing position, squat down and place your hands on the floor.

* Kick your feet back, while simultaneously lowering yourself into the bottom portion of a pushup. Your arms will not be extended.

* Immediately return your feet to the squat position, while simultaneously pushing “up” with your arms. You will perform a pushup as you return your feet to the squat position.

* Leap up as high as possible from the squat position. Repeat, moving as fast as possible.

This is the ONLY way that I perform Burpees.

After a quick drink I went through this routine a further 3 times for a total of 256 burpees.
