The burpee is the single best fat burning exercise ever. When I get done, my calves hurt, my feet hurt, my ribs ache, etc etc etc. It hits almost EVERY single muscle in your body.
I often prescribe them for my clients as their homework, which generally angers them :)
Anyway, a simple way to increase your calorie burning and what not is to add burpees to whatever you're planning on doing workout-wise.
I've been doing them for a while, so when I want to really add some work, I'll simply churn out 100 of them.
But here's what you can do if you're new to these. Simply do 1 today. Then, 2 tomorrow, 3 the day after, etc, until your last day where you do 100!!! Sounds like it's ridiculous, but trust me, they get easier... Well, not easier, but manageable.
Here's how to do a PROPER burpee.
So, give it a shot... let me know how much you hate me afterwards :)
Awesome. Love that burpee demo too! Super cool!
