Burpee Madness

The burpee has long been the foundational movement in our fitness here at the RRL.  Outside of the squat (various types) it is definitely one of the most used and certainly one of the most effective.

I came across this workout by Becca Voigt, my occasional swim buddy at Kokoro 30.  Becca is the real deal...7 time CrossFit Games Competitor, Kokoro Graduate and just a fantastic human being.  I pay attention to her programming and occasionally put it into ours.  This one fit the bill for today.  I am traveling, and will do this one on the road while the garage will be full of guys getting this one done.

The workout is called Burpee Madness and it has a really weird rep scheme.  Not sure why so instead of arguing, we will just do it as written.  From my math it equals 199 burpees. 

The workout is this:

Minute one: 20 Burpees
Minute two: 20 Burpees
Minute three: 5 Burpees
Minute four: 11 Burpees
Minute five: 2 Burpees
Minute six: 18 Burpees
Minute seven: 6 Burpees

Minute eight: 15 Burpees

Minute nine: 4 Burpees
Minute ten: 8 Burpees
Minute eleven: 17 Burpees
Minute twelve: 3 Burpees
Minute thirteen: 13 Burpees
Minute fourteen: 9 Burpees
Minute fifteen: 12 Burpees
Minute sixteen: 14 Burpees
Minute seventeen: 16 Burpees
Minute eighteen: 7 Burpees
Minute nineteen: 19 Burpees
Minute twenty: 1 Burpee

If you can not hit the number on the minute, save them until the next minute.  Do not go to the next minute reps until you have completed the one you are on.  Only go for 20 minutes.  The goal here is to complete this workout as written.

Give this one a try while on the road or back at the gym.
