Still plugging away at 100 burpees a day.  My quads have been fatigued and my jump at the end of each burpee has been muted, to say the least.  I have not added much variation to them over the last week, but I have run three miles or so several times after doing the burpees.

There have been days that I can power through them without a thought or care in the world.  And there have been days that I have dreaded doing them and have trouble getting through all 100.  I need to start doing them all soon after I wake each morning so they’re not hanging over my head.

How is your Burpee Challenge going?

Yes! I’ve made it through 1000 burpees. Only 8000 more to go in the Burpee Challenge.

I have added some twists, such as doing triangle push-ups to work my triceps or ab wheel in between sets of burpees. Spicing things up has also made them harder, but I am starting to fall into a good routine.

I have been doing 10 sets of 10 repetitions everyday. I may work towards uppin the amount of repetitions per set.

How is YOUR Burpee Challenge coming? I’d love to hear from you.

Still trucking along doing 100 burpess a day.  My legs have been pretty fatigued as I’ve also been doing some running.  I would love to hear how others are progressing with their own Burpee Challenge.

The last couple of days of burpees were pretty tough.  My body is definitely feeling a bit fatigued, but this is normal when begininning any new exercise routine.  I didn’t do anything fancy, like pull-ups with the burpees over the last two days, just the good old traditional movement.  I did however run three miles after my burpees the last two days.  This may explain why climbing the stairs just tired me out.

86 more days to go…

Today included burpee numbers 101-200.  I added a bit of a twist.  Instead of the traditional jump, I switched to a pull-up.  I did not fully extend my arms or always get my chin over the bar, but it was a good variation.  I think my back will have good soreness tomorrow.  I put together a fun clip from today’s session.

Please join in on the challenge and let me know how you’re progressing.  You don’t have to shoot for 100 a day and you can modify them to suit your fitness level.  Maybe you want to do full extension pull-ups or maybe you want to do the push-ups on your knees.  It’s all up to you.  The important thing is that you commit to doing burpees everyday.

The 90 day Burpee Challenge is here! The goal is to do at least 100 burpees or some variation of them for 90 days straight.  Yes 9,000 in total over three months.  Today is day one.  An amazing level of fitness is sure to follow.  Here is video of day 1:

Feel free to jump in and do them with me.  Just pause the video when you need rest.  I edited out my rest since Youtube won’t allow clips longer than 15 minutes.  The whole workout took me 23 minutes.
