    I thought Burpees was a seed/plant catalog... so until reading part of this thread, I thought I hated them too. :laugh:

    LOL, that's the only Burpees I'd ever heard of until now.

    i hate the name... ´burpees´, makes me think of someone burping, YUK :sick:

    Agreed. I love burpees but why do they have to be called that? I always do mine with a push up. But there are worse exerciSes than burpees such as pull ups and jump lunges...

    i F-ING hate jumping lunges too. those are EVVVVVIIIIL!

    Jumping/ leaping lunges are a killer my heart rate goes off the roof my legs ache and I see stars!!!
    In any circuit I dread this exercise. BUT I will overcome them
