Ubiquitous Workout 4 min
2012
This bodyweight workout takes only 4 minutes and is comprised of one exercise. Burpees!! These burpees are done in tabata intervals, and you are to try to do as many as you can in each of the 20 second rounds.
It’s a great strategy to keep a record of the workouts you do and the score you get so you can work towards beating your own personal best. Remember to date and also add any pertinent information along with your time and reps. It’s great to go back and redo workouts you’ve done before to compare how much you have improved. Improvement often comes quickly with these workouts.
The Ubiquitous Burpee Workout
Workout Beakdown
Set your timer for 8 rounds of 10 seconds rest and 20 seconds work intervals.
During each 20 second work interval do as many burpees as you can!
Exercise Description
Standing with feet hip width apart, squat down and place hands on ground in front of you, jump legs back into plank position, do a push up, jump legs back in and jump up in the air.
All burpees are done with a push up, unless otherwise stated. If it doesn’t say, it comes with one.
My scores were : 4, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3
I was determined to get 25 reps in.. and was aiming for 4 each round and one 5, so I really pushed it to get that 5th one in, going over the beep.. but that threw me for the rest. These little tabatas can be brutal!!
Enjoy! ; )
