    Oh You are SO missing out; and the guy in the video isn't doing a burpee, he's only doing a squat thrust. a true burpee has a jump at the end.

    BTW - I have one "client" trainee and she hated mountain climbers until I had her do a burpee :laugh:

    I had to ask what they were too when I first heard about them, so you are not alone
    I will tell you that they are CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT!!!
    And yes the guy in the video is doing it without the jump at the end, trust me it makes a huge difference!!
