I find burpees an excellent exercise, but I would advise against them if you are overweight. I would advise you to adjust your diet first before doing burpees.You can find documentation on roidusport.fr

28:47 - Rx (legs are tired after Elizabeth. Runs and burpees both felt heavy. 20lbs ago this would have been a much different workout. Calves did not enjoy the running and high jump combo.)

32:41 as rx’d with 2 hand touches on target. (Missed and had to redo the jump on 10 or so)

Really wanted to be sub 30 but seeing as how 100 target burpees takes me almost 10m by itself I guess this makes sense. Bad air quality again today. Lungs burn now. I think I’ll be subbing zone 2 stuff, strength and stamina when the AQI is above 70 from now on….

Really felt the quads and anterior delta from Liz

First mile run took 9:00. At home.

Sweat puddles: humid and no air flow.  Had to sub the run: treadmill and rower broken at work, couldn't run outside because of work.  That spin bike still got my hear rate up and worked my legs pretty good before each round of burpees.  Burpees were continuous but slow.  Nice one HQ!  Mad respect to all who did this sub 20min Rx!

Loved this workout! Broke it up into 4x800 +25 burpees because I'm not a beginner anymore but I'm not intermediate... lol.

3 goals here because I hate cardio.
1) 20 min time cap. No extensions;
2) no walking on the run; and 
3) No breaking up the burpees.

each run was 6-7 mins long. Far from my best but I’m a work in progress.

Not very good! It is brutally uncomfortably hot and humid out. Still, I recall a time not many years ago that I’d have no trouble completing this. 

Agreed with above posts. Infact the spinal flexion is healthy especially in this circumstance while not under load it’s a healthy mobilization of an area we often train to be stable. Allowing mobility here allows for better cross training adaptability including running and swimming where mobility and “shock absorption” can be hugely beneficial

Globo wod: If for some reason running isn't an option,  sub 2000m row or 100/80 calories air bike for the runs. If you are using a conventional treadmill use a slight incline. For burpees if you don't have a target to jump to do line facing burpees (bar facing burpees without a bar).

MY STUFF

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 7

To step back or not to step back? That is the question...

I've got a question regarding the phase from the plank - lowering the chest to the ground - back to plank. I imagine doing the strict pushup with the spine neutral and not moving is the safest method, however I see ALOT of people coaching the method of doing the burpee as a kind of "wave" from plank to the floor back to plank. Is the "wave" more stressful for the lower back and should coaches teach the safer method? Any evidence or experience? Because alot of people can't to a regular pushup. And confronted with the "strict pushup" burpee, they simply can't do it.
