burpee
squat thrust
20 reps and preparing for my second set after lunch then another after dinner. Steppin outta the comfort zone today. WOOHOO.0 -
another day done 10 burpies!!! yah me
and it was not that they were killing me that I took that day off, I had to go out of town on fathers day and missed a day, spent most of it driving, or being beaten up by toddlers. and the toddlers are more than enough exercise for me, lol
also to anyone who struggles with push ups, burpies with pushups are great, you only do one at a time, then you jump up, releasing all stress from your arms for a second before doing another, in my opinion, it is a great way to get used to it.
if it is still uncomfortable try to do a push up every other burpie or one pushup for every three you do, something like that.
my upper body strength has gone down the drain, but doing pushups here aren't bad.0 -
and 11 burpies done today. now time to shower and get ready for work.0

I know that this is a very stale thread but I just wanted to come and thank the OP, not only am I still doing the Burpee challenge...42 today...but my husband thought he'd try it too...although he got injured about day 12 it inspired him to get fit generally, which was something he probably wouldn't have come to on his own without me starting this challenge...so thank you from 2 people who are more fit today than we were 43 days ago!0

only 20?? we do 7 minutes max burpees a few times a year to check our endurance... 86 is my best
way to get started all! burpees are a bit*h!0 -
Why is neither the burpee or squat jump an exercise that you can log?0
