Trial By Burpee Workout
Hi Everyone!
Today's workout is quick and challenging! In between each exercise I completed 5 Burpees. It was a great way to get my heart rate up, and keep my body working hard. I round took me just under 10 Minutes. It can be repeated up to 3 times.
This workout is a great fat burner, and all over toner. I definitely felt like I got in a full body workout. I only went through this workout once today, but I followed it with a 3.5 mile run outside. I am planning on doing a modified version of this workout in my bootcamp class tomorrow night. :)
I hope you guys enjoy the workout. I am going to be sharing more about my competition experience, so be sure to check back!

Before seeing this workout i had decided i would come up with a circuit that included burpees between each exercise...then i saw this workout you did yesterday and thought, perfect! Just got done. Took me 17:30 to complete 2 rounds and that includes a 1minute break between rounds(kept the clock going). Thanks for your workouts! Also, congrats on your placing at the npc comp! You look amazing!
ReplyDeleteMelissa, I am doing your workouts u did for competition. You look fabulous. I am on the 2nd day. Question for u. Did u do any extra cardio with the workouts u posted?

ReplyDeletei loved this workout! I made it a bit more challenging for myself by adding jump roping for 1 minute in between each exercise. I didn't feel like running outside today :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for kicking my trash today with this workout! I really appreciate that you have this site and share all of your wonderful knowledge. I just started doing your workouts a few days ago and I love it so far.
ReplyDeleteI hate burpies so I'm gonna do 5 jump squats instead :)
