don't know why they are called
burpees , they should be called
barfies because
burpees , or squat thrusts have got to be the best
body weight conditioning exercise I have ever done. Today in
Muay Thai class we did sets of
burpees early in the class. Before the
burpees I was cruising, but afterwords, I thought I was going to puke! We would do 10
burpees , jog, then 9, jog, on down to 6 which we did twice. The workout continued with sprints and such so I was drenched in sweat and breathing heavy by the end. If you need to improve your conditioning and hate running as much as a fat kid with bad ankles, then I highly recommend them. Check out this
Beyond Burpees Video for more ideas .
