A No-Equipment-Necessary Strength Builder

A “burpee” is a tough, advanced bodyweight exercise – strength and endurance packed into one – that you can do without any equipment. There are all sorts of variations, but my favorite is to add a push-up in the middle and a jump at the end. Here’s how to do it:

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

• Squat down, place your hands on the floor, and thrust your feet back into push-up position.

• Do a push-up, and bring your knees back up to your chest.

• Jump up as high as you can, landing with your knees slightly bent.

• Repeat for 6-10 repetitions.

Make sure you wear proper shoes and do this on a soft surface (not concrete or pavement).

    I have been working out for about 6 years and have tried most of the high profile muscle builders, some working more than others. I have made the discovery I was looking for. I have been using the Dr Max Powers HGH Spray for 2 months and I can feel it like nothing else. Im not sure if it is energy, strength or what. I have bigger pumps and an overall better work out. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants the best value for their money.
