I really dig them for “coming to life” in the morning. Especially the day after a hard and heavy workout. Wake up, find a space on the floor, and knock them out. Couldn’t ask for a better full body warm-up. And you’ve got no choice but to MOVE.

I’ve taken to doing them “over bar” in that capacity as well, and it’s a real game changer. The day has begun!

Isn’t that what they invented coffee for :joy::joy:

The funny thing is when I was a runner I would do most of my running at 4-6am before work on an empty stomach and it always made me feel great for the day. I haven’t been able to make myself get up early for burpees yet. Maybe one day I will HVIII myself enough to do this.

One of my favorite moments of peace is having my energy drink AFTER the burpees. It’s why I like getting up so early: I get to have my quiet.

I love how this seems so yin and yang, all the white of burpees with the black of an energy drink…. Perfect balance :wink:

I had a real nasty one lined up for today along those lines, but there’s too much vomit in my house to be sneaking out to the garage.

Looks like the vomit has subsided, so I’ll be a little more free to train.

I’m pretty sure there’s some instructional videos online. Check your roommates browsing history for ideas.

3 x 100kg
2 x 110kg
1 x 115kg

Pull ups throughout, didn’t count.

Notes:

  • Finally got a bit of time away. Plague season has officially struck. Didn’t know how long I had, and didn’t have much mental capacity left so just went for some basic work on squats and continued my “planned” progression on Press.
  • I may not have been training, but I have kept to my nutrition plan very accurately, which should hopefully mean not too many backward steps, although I can feel Squat isn’t quite were I want it to be.
