I'm going to be a nudge... what is it testing other than your ability to do burpees?

No not your overall level of fitness. Burpees are only one small aspect of fitness.0 -

Yeah, why even post wanting people to take part in a challenge then stall to do it yourself. Lead by example!1

PS. I do burpees (sans push up) several times a week as part of bodyweight HIIT/tabata style stuff. I'm going to call that good enough.
I can (slowly) run 5k if asked, I can take things off couriers no problem when they warn me it's heavy, I can run up a flight of stairs without being breathless, I can touch my toes. Those are a better "fitness tests" than 3 minutes of burpees quite honestly. And any other fitness test I've ever done usually have a few markers to test overall fitness because being fit is a really broad term.3 -

Hahahah look who's talking. You really think you can measure someone's fitness by the number of bad form burpees one can do in 3 minutes? I guess because a magazine says you can it must be true lol0 -
