Actually my new favorite exercise! Burpees are way easier for me now, because I've been doing them the wrong way this whole time, without the squat. 😂

[@brainscott8198]

Without the squat, it's just a burp...lol

[@NycYktv]

Instead of just jumping then going down when I jumped Do a jumping jack then go back down to a push up it really helps

The way she jumps and goes to squat position, it seems she weighs just 25 pounds , I find burpees really harder than any other exercise I usually do , thanks mam 🙏

[@tula__]

Yup it's a combo of squat jumps and push up. Both tough for beginners.

[@tooltime8250]

its easy to do any exercise if you are skinny as a bone. but the benefit of being fat and doing that is a greater effect because you burn tons of calories moving around lots of bodyweight. so there is always a bright side in the shadows. :-)

@@tooltime8250 the first part of your comment just isn't true.. coming from a skinny person. the woman in the video is a professional, that's why it's easy for her.

For all the people commenting that she is not doing a burpee clearly do not understand there are different types of burpees and what she is doing is called a push-up burpee with a jump over a bar. This is a high impact exercise and it's harder than it looks.

[@michaeljursic1173]

Just wanted to say that I like this video in no small part because you show the exercise first and explain it second.

[@Ruoja71]

actually it's 5 exercises: jump, squat, plank, push-up and crunch - you need to drag your legs forward from the push-up position using your abs. Otherwise you will compensate with hip flexors and get them tight. Also before you do the next rep, right after standing up, take one extra breath to exhale CO2 buildup. Only this increased my in a row burpees count by 10.

Don't do chloe ting for results. I'm not a hater just my gains were exponential when I picked a better trainer. For example try Daniel PT or Anabolic Alien.
