Wow is it April already? I'm sorry I haven't posted on the blog yet this year. I've had a crazy busy start to the New Year. Anyway…happy April and happy spring (well, I think Spring is on it's way here in Michigan….but one never knows). This month I've combined some of my favorite moves and created Marissa's Burpee Complex. I've also inserted a first time video for you demonstrating how the movements are done. I was by myself, and this is probably 1 of 48 different takes and the result of 20-30 minutes, so just in preparing this short video demonstration for you I had a pretty good workout and of course, lots of fun! I should have made a "blooper reel" going back and looking at the many videos I made this morning. Needless to say, I always have fun working out and I'll try and "hire' a videographer for next time! I hope you have fun with this months challenge.
So, you will do a burpee combined with mountain climbers and then jumping jacks. That will count as 1 rep (see, in this video I said "set" that would have gone on the "blooper reel"). I also show and mention some alternatives you can add into this to keep it fresh such as twisting knee tucks, and jump ropes. As always, modify the movements and repetitions to challenge your level of fitness, and always check with your doctor prior to beginning any exercise program.
In Health & Fitness,
Marissa
