    So on Tuesday I tried to do half burpees quickly, my form was all over the place and I kind of put too much impact on my knees. I took Wednesday to recover a bit and went back to my slower modified beginner burpees again today.

    Dec 10: 25 half burpees
    Dec 11: Rest day
    Dec 12: 25 modified burpees

    Good job getting it in Pisanee! 🤗

    I did none yesterday but today I did a 30 set in the morning before work and 30 just now. Since they only take me each under five minutes I don’t really count them as true exercise, tho I am rethinking that- my heart rate was thru the roof! 😆

    Just checking in to say not one burpee has been performed since my last check in. Think I have lost my desire to even try them!

    I know the feeling. I’ve been a bit fatigued and sore from some other stuff and have dropped back to my sad beginner burpees. Trying to work my way back up again.

    Dec 13: none
    Dec 14: none
    Dec 15: 10 barely burpees
    Dec 16: 14 barely burpees

    No bloody burpees- will the month ever end so I can stop baring my in- awesomeness? Or- better yet when will I just start doing them again?! 🙄

    @SammyDee2015 I’m sure you’ll start them again when you need to. I tried to do some yesterday but my husband came home with groceries about 5 minutes in. After helping him bring them in, I just couldn’t find the momentum to keep going. We can be in-awesome together. Do 2 in-awesome make an awesome?

    Started Dec 23rd then found this challenge :)
    - 8 days done!
    I do them in a circuit with 3-4 other exercises 5 sets of 10 with probably 3-4 min doing other exercises.
    Sometimes I do them while playing a YouTube video of someone else doing it too. Sometimes I use a countdown clock with music. I feel super charged with energy - almost TOO much!
    The last day will be Jan 21st.

    Dec 31: Burpees half with / half without going all the way to the ground in a circuit.
    Jan 1: Gym workout + lots of walking (~ 7.5 miles altogether) made burpees super difficult. Couldn't do the hop back up from plank all the way. I need lots of water and a good stretch. I can't wait for a total rest day.
