Crazy Cardio Workout!
Just figured I would share with you! I shared with some girls via Facebook, but figured I would post here too!
It was so nice out today that I couldn't fathom running on the treadmill and I wanted to do HIIT. So as per a recommendation from an awesome trainer I am friends with I tried this!
Run 100m and do 15 burpees. Then run 100m and do 14 burpees. Do it all the way until you get to 1 burpee! He said it ends up being about 1 mile of sprints and 134 burpees!
Before I did this I ran for 15 minutes to kind of warm my body up! I wouldn't recommend just jumping into this without some sort of a warm up!

Re: Crazy Cardio Workout!
That does sound crazy!
Burpees are hard enough to do alone!

Re: Crazy Cardio Workout!
Thats awesome!!
I just did a 4 week bootcamp challenge and the third week the trainers had us do something called 21's. You started with 1 pushup and 20 burpees...next 2 pushups 19 burpees....3 pushups 18 burpees....all the way down to 20 pushups and 1 burpee....
over the 4 weeks of doing various workouts I lost 7.5 inches!!

Re: Crazy Cardio Workout!
LOVE HIIT and I LOVE burpees.
I'll have to remember this for after the baby comes. I plan on getting right back to some serious HIIT workouts.
