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! 

Melissa

  1. 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!

  4. i 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 :)
