    Sounds a lot like level 2 of the 30 day shred with a few modifications.

    Those burpees are enough to do me in...I added a COUPLE into tonight's workout...gracious! This combination looks as though it would produce results though.

    what's a burpee?
    The burpee is a full body exercise used in strength training and as aerobic exercise. It is performed in four steps, and was originally known as a "four-count Burpee":

    1.Begin in a standing position.
    2.Drop into a squat position with your hands on the ground. (count 1)
    3.Extend your feet back in one quick motion to assume the front plank position. (count 2)
    4.Return to the squat position in one quick motion. (count 3)
    5.Return to an upright standing position. (count 4) [1]

    We call it "incentive training" any one of us could do this for 15 minutes straight, no breaks. After awhile, it felt good, and kept doing it multiple times a day. Loved it. Not so much now though (with a knee injury and all)

    I've done the 30 day shred many times. this is a lot different! You do it 3-5 times. I couldn't find it anywhere online, so not sure where it came from. there is a 30 day challenge thing I saw it on but someone had put it on pinterest so I thought I'd try it. My whole body is sore after 1 day.

    I haven't done it, but it's pinned on my health & fitness board. It sounds like a good cardio circuit.

    I love this work out! It's really good for keeping your heart rate up while still working your muscles. Last time i did it my arms were sossore! That's a lot of push ups when you go through the circuit 3 times.

    I do this workout at least once a week (or try to do, I sub pushups for wall pushups lol). I found it on a facebook group, "The Science of Eating". i love it. It hurts, but in a good way.

    am I reading there is only one set of burpees?

    that's a waste- I would totally sub something else out for more burpees. And only 7? that's rubbish- MOAR BURPEES!!!!!

    I think with any workout, you should be ready to switch it up when necessary.

    I'd be wary of just seeing Pins/Posters with these workouts saying 'do this every day for 30 days'. I tried a HIIT routine for 6 weeks and my shoulders were worthless after the first 2 weeks. Some of the repetitive motions can really do you in.
