We decided, Fidel, Jules, Lea and myself, to engage on a challenge of doing 1000 burpies within 1 month, each of us. Which means that we will do 32 burpies per day, everyday, for 30 days, and 40 the last day. If you are not sure what a burpee is, here is the link of wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burpee_(exercise)
And you are welcome to participate to our challenge!
By looking at the right definition I think we are actually doing a combination of the burpee push-up (also known as bastardo), and the jump-up burpee. A bit more demanding…. This is the burpee asked in the Spartan races when you failed in an obstacle. Here is the official demo from the Spartan website (https://youtu.be/uX1IfVFkm6s). I also learned that Mr. Royal Burpee invented it in 1940 during his PhD in applied physiology! Something important is that it is a full body exercise! Allez, lets’ go! Qui nous aime nous suive!*
