    isnt that 1/2 a burpee? where's the press-up? They're my gyms favourite exercise to end a session with.

    The *kitten*.

    I have a love hate relationship with burpees. If you want a killer workout try doing tabata burpees.

    Ahh no thank you. It hurt just watching that one. YIkes!!

    Man! I'd probably give myself a concussion from repeated head bashing or a bloody nose from my "girls" jumping.

    I love to hate burpees....we do things called Kosamies too...squat, plank, push-up, plank jack, push-up, jump to the sky....I hate them and love them all at the same time....

    Oooh... gotta try those.

    This is a more strenuous one... but her first exercise will give you the best tush managable.

    Just look at her tush... very nice.

    **And her accent is cute
  • Begin in a standing position.
    Drop into a squat position with your hands on the ground. (count 1)
    Extend your feet back in one quick motion to assume the front plank position. (count 2)
    Return to the squat position in one quick motion. (count 3)
    Jump straight into the air as high as possible. (count 4)

    Thanks for the definition. I was thinking it was partially puking up a Slurpee.

    ^^^^^Hahaha! I like that definition better :)
