Challenge is for FITNESS.

Some will have just a tough time trying to get to 100, but that should be their first goal.

Then once you can do it NONE STOP, try reducing the time it takes you to do it.

Do it for 30 days and see how you progress.

I'll post mine later. Good luck.

    That sounds awful to do them straight through, I have done a workout that included 100 burpees, 100 situps and some running that I timed myself. I think I need to try that one again and see if i can better my time.

    I also did Crossfit for a month....happened to hit the 7 minutes of Burpees WOD....only got 72

    now thats a challenge

    theres a youtube video of some guy doing a mile worth (4 times around a track) of burpees. every time he jumped, he'd jump forward. it was his 30th birthday present to himself. hope he enjoyed the unwrapping lol

    i'm in crappy shape now, but even at my best, i don't think i could do 100 non stop without building up to it.

    Do 5 and do 20 sets of them throughout the day. You'll see the payoff in the end.

    6 minutes and 20 seconds. Although I didn't do a push up on the way down (didn't actually know you were supposed to do that until I looked it up) and I only jumped for the first 50. Will attempt again with better form.
