100 Day Burpee Challenge

I just did the "reverse burpee" you posted a video of. That sure got my heart rate up in a hurry!

Oh lordie yes, even the "regular" unmodified burpee will do that - it really is a whole body exercise!

This morning was a strength session so no burpees, I will need to do those on my own this evening.

I'm liking the look of Burpee's, Catrin. I thought this was about garden seeds, though. I'm going to start with one today and add one a day. The video on the modifications is great.

what a great challenge! Burpees are known to make me want to throw up whatever meal I ate last (even if it was hours and hours before).

There was a time early in the summer when I was doing 20 regular burpees a day. That has since ceased (although I'm mad I stopped). The reverse burpee wasn't nearly as hard as the regular one for me. I might do those every other day to change it up.
I'm totally in for the challenge. Just did 10 reverse burpees and 5 regular ones. Thanks for sharing!!

Did 16 regular burpees today after my workout. Amazing how even the "regular" version feels!

Even my fitness instructor's eyes bugged out when I told her about this challenge! You're a badazz, Girlfriend.

Perhaps glutton for punishment is a better description Seriously, as far as I've come, I am a weak sister compared to many of my group training teammates, especially where upper body strength is concerned but they are very encouraging to me.
