Burpee Workout Demo

Okay, one more post.

I just wanted to show you guys an AWESOME at home, body weight workout. It is called a burpee. Demonstration here--http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_Burpees.wmv  Note that it combines a push up, squat, and vertical leap. Ugh, it is exhausting. I do between 50 and 75 and consider it my workout for the day. It is high intensity and serves well for a workout. I started out only doing 25 there for a while, and increased it.

Another note, I still do a "Girl Push Up" with my knees on the ground, do a little hop to get my feet from the push up to the ground and then I jump straight up, as I as I can. Serves the same idea.

So, if you want to incorporate a little bit of quick, intense workoutness into your day---this is a FABULOUS one.
