REASONS WHY BURPEES ARE SO FREAKIN' AWESOME:

1.Total body movement- they work everything! More bang for your buck!

2. There are no excuses not to do them. They can be done anywhere and everywhere: at work, at home, or on the road.

3. They make you stronger. A burpee is a very functional exercise and will increase your daily performance. Carrying all those groceries will become a piece cake. They work so many different muscle groups. It's insane!

4. Burpees will help you get fit fast without a treadmill. That's right, burpees are a very effective form of cardio. You want to run a faster 5k, 10k, or marathon???  Add burpees to your arsenal and you will see great gains.

5. They are a good supplement to any workout. Add a few sets to the end of your workout as a finisher or implement them between sets. Burpees will enhance your workouts.

SO this being said, try to do a burpee today somewhere out of the ordinary!  If you feel inclined to do a burpee while at work while talking to your colleague at the water cooler, in the grocery store, or while out on your jog...DO IT!  Have fun with these things because it will only benefit you!
