Burpee Challenge

Following CrossFit Santa Cruz’s lead, CrossFit Charlotte will be starting a burpee challenge this upcoming Monday, July 21st. It’s simple. On day one, do one burpee. On day two, do two burpees. Each day add one burpee all the way to 100 burpees on Oct 28th.

These burpees are done to the CrossFit Standard.

  • Thighs and chest must touch the ground at the bottom of the push-up.
  • After the push-up, the feet must jump forward to the bottom of the squat position, heels on the ground.
  • On the jump, there must be a full extension of the knees and hips in the air.
  • At full extension, you must clap overhead, with at least part of the ear visible from the side.

No, this workout is not a replacement for the regular WOD.

Here are some optional points that Santa Cruz posted, what does everyone think of these?

  • Burpees can be done all at once, or broken into managable sets done throughout the day.
  • If you miss a day, you can add the missed burpees to the next day.
  • If you start the challenge late, you can “buy-in” by doing all missed burpees.
  • Burpees done as part of a standard WOD can count to your daily total.

If you’re interested in this challenge, try doing 100 burpees this weekend straight and time yourself. See how much you improve by October 28th!
