Hate Burpees? Try These Fun Variations...
Hate Burpees? Try out one of these three variations.
I only program burpees into our workouts after properly prepping the body for them (hence why you will oftentimes find burpees at the end of your AFFM workouts). Even after prepping our bodies, regular burpees can still feel pretty meh for a lot of us. Myself included.
Always feel free to try any of these variations when doing burpees in my workouts. Maybe you’ll even learn to ‘like’ burpees if you find a better-suited burpee option for you and your body!
1. Standing ‘Toe Touches’ - Can’t quite touch your toes? No problem just reach towards the floor
2. Elevated Single Legged Step Backs.
3. Elevated Double Legged Step Backs.
〰️ I’d recommend a hard surface like a coffee table, counter-top, or wall. Keep in mind that the higher up/more elevated the surface, the less pressure applied to the body. So feel free to take it as high as you need.
HAVE FUN (or maybe a little more fun now 😉)
