    Nothing gets you going in the morning better than having a cup of coffee followed by 100 burpees for time. I'm old and slow, but that 11-12 minutes of intense physical exercise seems to do more for my fitness than running for an hour does. I'll be 50 this year and I plan to incorporate burpees into my fitness regimen until I die or just cannot physically do them anymore.

      From the reading I’ve done, I think you “can” do burpees every day, but it’s probably better doing them every other day to let your body repair. In fact, I plan to do a “Push day” (primarily burpees), day off, “Pull day” (primarily pull-ups, leg lifts, bands), day off, Running, weekend off, repeat.

    So true. I always used to complicate fitness. Now I keep it simple. I do burpees, push ups, pull ups and squats (when I’m not surfing). I also eat much better. I keep that simple as well. I eat plants and animals. Vegetables, fruit plus grilled/baked animal/fish protein. Very minimal sugar, processed foods and white flour. Best shape of my life. No gym membership. Not against the gym. Wouldn’t mind having a squat rack, bench and some free weights/kettle bells but just focusing on the basics at the moment has me in great shape.

    My motto since 7 years: "burpees love you".
    Back in the old days when I started to do workouts other than just running (it was about 7 years ago) I joined a functional fitness class and the trainer threw a 1-minute AMPRAP burpee challenge at us. I hardly knew what a burpee was but I though "nah, that's easy". I was gassing out after like 20 seconds? I got hooked and love burpees ever since.
    Of course I do a lot of other exercises, as for my back burpees are literally useless, but for general strength-endurance, they are perfect!

    I just discovered you through some comments on one of my favorite channels, The Bioneer.
    I need to tell you how much I appreciate, honor and respect you for serving what good is left in America today.
    My father, had no patience and would find any reason to explode on me and beat me and we never had much of a connection. ( I ran away when I turned 19.)
    I was never good enough for his standards. Mom passed away when I was just 16 and I never got to be around her much,
    or have her comfort. I just remember how hard she always fought for us kids, sometimes we lived on the streets and I remember mom crying.
    I was 7 and people came by giving us blankets and food.
    I wanted to join the military and grow up to be in law enforcement since i was 11 years old.. but i already had PTSD and other serious mental issues at those ages and after high school.
    Every branch turned me down and I was defeated inside that year, back in 2009, post graduation.
    I always look at every military or officer male like the father I never had. So thank you for being here and doing all that you do.
    My story was just to point out how much a different you make in a person's life, just by serving and that you are a hero in my heart every day.
    Bless you!
