Spice up your burpees
Add some spice to your burpees.
It’s no secret, we like cadence exercises. Why? Because there’s no where to hide, you can either do it, or you can’t. And there’s no bonus for speeding through, as if it’s some achievement that you’re done before everyone else.
Cadence exercises separate the herd, because its instantly obvious who’s trying to skate by - and they know they’re exposed too.
We use the Maelz App for our cadence stuff (on the App Store, look it up, no affiliation, just a good app).
-
Start position is with your chest on the ground.
-
Beep, explode up, jump as high as you can, return to start position.
-
Rinse repeat.
Miss one cadence? That’s fine, wait it out. Miss two? You’re done.
