    what are burpees?
    Start in standing position, jump down into plank position, then jump back up to starting position. There's all sorts of modifications for burpees, including one where you jump into a sumo squat first before going into plank, which protects your knees and ones I tend to do. Go on You Tube and type in burpees so you can see how people do them.
