You are doing great! Hopefully, you are now making your burpees a major part of your workout if not all of your workout. This means trying to put all those #s of burpees in a compact, reasonable amount of time. How did your timed trial go? The result of that gives you some understanding of the level of your fitness. But those numbers are starting to add up. Getting tired of the same old 3 sets of 10? Now that you are in the 30s, you can try to mix things up to keep from getting bored. Check out this wonderful video below. Note: this guy is doing Tabata rounds for extreme, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). Tabata is 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off, eight (8) times! I do not recommend you perform this level, yet. However, a series of 30 secs on, and 90, 60, or 30 seconds off until you have completed your 32 burpees would be an excellent introduction to the benefits of HIIT. Remember, as with our regular burpees, the following variations must first concentrate on form and quality, not speed, to prevent yourself from injuries.
