Finished My 1 Week 1000 Burpees

I DID IT!

Hello guys, Today I'll be sharing about my 1 week 1000 burpees challenge. We all know no many people love to do burpess because it is one of the most hard exercise to be done especially when you can't control your breathing. Many people react negatively when they were ask to do burpees. For me, I'm in love with burpees!

What is BURPEES?

Burpees or also know as squat thrust are a full body exercise which virtually works every muscle in the body, this means that you can burn more calories in a lot less time.
You can do burpees almost anywhere as you are only using your own body weight.
They boost strength and endurance which will help with everyday activities or enhance you further with physical training. The muscle involve are deltoids, biceps, triceps, pectorals major, obliques, abdominals, quadriceps, gluteus maximus, hamstrings and gastrocnemius (calf) just to name a few.

How to do BURPEES?

1. Stand with your feet hip width apart and your arms down by your side
2. Lower into a squat position with your hands flat on the floor in front of you
3. Kick your legs backwards into a press up position and lower your chest to the floor
4. Push your chest back up to the press up position thrust both feet forward so you are back in the squat position
5. Jump up and raise both hands over your head ( hand must clap behind your head for better chest development )

 

 

 On 1 Nov 2015 I had decided to challenge my self to do 1000 burpees by 8 Nov. The reason I'm doing this is to push my self and go beyond my limit. It also a training to improve my mind set to achieve goal that I've set. I'm doing 200 burpees in one day by breaking them to 30, 20 and 10 per reps to reach 100 burpees then rest for 5 minutes and continue the next 100 burpees. First 200 burpees were very hard. The only word to describe after doing 200 burpees is effortless. But after that I've start to see positive result. Note that your body condition is one of the factor that will effect your result ( time ). Avoid doing burpees or any workout if your body is too weak (tired). Meaning? You'll know it when you see some of my result (time).

Day 1

100 burpees ( 17:21 minutes ) - 5min rest - 100 burpees ( 13:33 minutes )

Day 2

100 burpees ( 12:33 minutes ) - 5min rest - 100 burpees ( 12:36 minutes )

Day 3

100 burpees ( 12:22 minutes ) - 5min rest - 100 burpees ( 12:23 minutes )

Day 4

Day 5
