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

Very minimal warmup today. Didn’t get the heart rate up until I was into the burpees. Stepped most of the burpees in consideration on my sprained left toe. Sets of 15 on wallballs.

As rx’d, 1 round + 38 burpees (213 reps).


Broke T2B 15-10.  Burpees 21-15-9-5 in about 4 minutes – got to wall ball with 10 minutes left.  Wall ball 25-15-15-10-10 in another 5 minutes.  Second round broke T2B 10-5-5-5 and then just got as many burpees as I could.  Shoulders got pretty smoked during this.

Modified, and using a 10 kg sandbag for wall-ball shots:

--

Complete as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes:

15 hanging knee tucks

35 burpees

50 wall-ball shots

SCORE: 2 rounds, 15 HKT, 9 burpees

--

Completed 3 rounds in 21'24''. Fantastic WOD 👍 . Thank you, I needed this one today.

This is a smashing combo, even in this modified form. Those wall-ball shots after the burpees... very clever 💪

Rep scheme as RX'd was probably too much for me today; Intermediate rep scheme was the sweet spot.

4 or 5 RFT of this pattern would also make a great WOD 😲

Globo scale: If you do not have a place to do toes to bar sub v ups. For wallballs, either toss the ball into the air like a wallball but without a wall, or if you don't have a wallball sub 75 dumbbell thrusters, 15/20lb dumbbells.


Bodyweight/equipmentless sub AMRAP 15: 25 vups, 50 burpees, and broken into 5 sets of 10, hand release pushups and jump squats. Scale as needed.

Do you want to practice falling or not practice falling? There's your answer. Kicking the feet before the hands hit is practicing falling.

Commented on: The Burpee

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.

I noticed the same thing, Bengi. I have been coaching and CrossFitting for 10yrs and am unfamiliar with a burpee requiring a rigid body (as in a push-up), and this includes the Open. My guess is that one can improvise the ground portion based on their fitness. I do see folks who are very fit utilize a push-up and seem to have extraordinary efficiency with it, but I, personally, can’t. I have always performed and coached the burpee as 1) get chest and thighs on the ground 2) get back up to your feet 3) get some daylight under your feet. Furthermore, I prefer touching my fingers to a target in the burpee to ensure a reach to the sky during the jump.

Either way, variety is the name of the game, and there’s room for lots of burpee variations. Sometimes we even do “sprawls”, where the body doesn’t go to the ground at all as a burpee variant.

As for avoiding flexion/extension through the burpee for safety, as a general rule, it’s horseshit. Spinal flexion and extension in this manner is fine for a healthy spine.

If you keep your butt and belly squeezed, you're actually practicing a good skill by bowing and flexing. On the other hand, if you want to work on the strength part of it you would want to practice the rigid body position. Check out a video called Skill Transfer of the Burpee - it's with Carl Paoli and it's in the Journal and probably on YouTube also.
