Burpees are a full body high intensity exercise that burn up to 50% more fat than a moderate exercise. They are great to throw into workouts or to do on their own because they help build muscle while getting your heart pumping and burning fat. They also speed up your metabolism which in turn helps you burn more calories throughout the day.
A burpee is considered functional training because it allows your body to strengthen a range of motion that it uses everyday, improving balance, agility, and coordination.
A classic crossfit style workout is to do 100 Burpees for time. The average time is between 8-10 minutes but I promise you will feel it in your chest, arms, legs, and will be struggling to catch your breath. This is a great exercise to do when you don’t have time to go to the gym or have access to any equipment at all.
