Burpees are hated by most, yet are such an amazing exercise. It hits a lot of different muscles in the body, can be used for cardio, and requires no equipment, allowing you to do them anywhere at any time! In CrossFit we do these all the time, so it definitely helps to know all the stretches to help you move smoothly, and some small tips when performing it, keeping you conserving as much energy as possible, and letting you blaze past everyone else! In this video we will go over burpee form, briefly cover some benefits of burpees being performed with these tips, and stretches to help you when you’re doing burpee workouts!
The main areas we want to stretch are:
Shoulders / ankles / hamstrings
These are the main muscles and joints being used or lengthened during this exercise, and keeping these areas mobile will enhance your burpee speed.
The tips we go over:
1. Rolling your body instead of doing a pushup
2. Landing flat footed instead of on your toes
3. Springing out of the burpee allowing use of the muscle reflex
4. Landed upright with a wide stance
With all these tips being implemented, you can save a ton of energy and time performing burpees during a workout!
