    I've never done 3 mins max burpees before, but I've tested 7 mins max burpees before and got 103, and 1 minute max burpees and got 19. I'd like to do this challenge, but would prob prefer to do the 7 minute one again to try and beat my old score. Totally agree that lifting, running, etc should form parts of your all-round regime and that burpees are in no way the definitive marker, even though they're my fave!
    The 1 minute max I do every few weeks out of interest. Perhaps I'll hold out on doing the 3 min challenge until the OP has posted his score ;)

    I've done the 7 minute max burpees too, it was awful. I only got 72. I don't think I was breathing right for the next couple hours.

    Maybe he didn't know that burpees suck?

    If I had to guess though, I usually want to punch someone around 10...even with 3 minutes I could probably only correctly do like 3 more than that.

    Its a good fitness test! Will be posting my results end of the week hopefully!

    End of the week? Why not today?

    Got to go swimming with the little one soz!

    It's 3 minutes of burpees... not sure how going swimming stops you from doing that?? Worried you can't do many?! :laugh:

    No im hoping to do above 40 with a goal of 60 ultimately, but today i must take my youngest his swimming lesson. Lots of comments but no scores as yet! Wonder why?

    You think you can do a proper burpee in 3 seconds ?

    Insanity burpees or P90X3 burpees?

    *hint* shaun t doesn't do a press up in his!

    To be fair, Shaun T doesn't call his burpees.

    Well this time I didn't remember burpees until I'd showered and was getting dressed. I'm thinking I'll have to just change and do them at the gym at work, this afternoon.

    Not sure that claim of 51 stacks up...

    ...he'd done 80 by 3 minutes

    A little sloppy, but very impressive. That dude's a beast.

    You know, as well as OP not coming back to give us his number, he never did specify whether it was to be performed with or without the push up.

    Maybe the loofa baby scared him. She seems to be doing pretty good at the nap burpee. No pushup required on that one. I think it's good for beginners.
