my numerous old injuries to hip and back would prevent me jumping which is why i was drawn to Busy Dad Burpees. The only exercise i could reliably do without breaking down before i started burpees was cycling. i am only a month in on burpees i can already feel the benefits and my cycling is improved too. So thank you, Max.

I'm recently recovering from a knee injury, the stand up part of the burpee without the jump has been giving my legs good training without stress on my knee

The original Burpee.....didnt even incorporate a press up. This is a fact. Shouts out to BDP..from Cleveland, Ohio USA

I do 4 count burpees, they're great.

As a 42 year old with arthritis filled joints F the jumps :,D OG Royal H didn't need the jump :,D I did a few sets of 100 with some jumps and learned real quick on my own personal journey. If they work for someone though and they wanna go hard then go hard with all you've got :) Just the opinion of me and my 100k mostly non jump burpees in the bag 🙌 glad to hear you discuss it!

I find this a very sensible approach

Skipping the jump is about consistency for me. I can jump, my joints are great and I do/have always practiced jumping but with burpees, the jump will eventually suffer and then I reach the dilemma of whether to count a bad jump as a failed rep or not. Ultimately, it's easier to skip it, keep it consistent and get more reps in. I can do jumps for low reps on other days.

Nice perspective, my friend.

How about a 6-count with a lunge up? Instead of bringing both legs back in, you bring in one to your chest, the other halfway, and lunge back up. More leg activation. You'd have to make sure you do your workouts in an even number, but other than that, what issues do you forsee?

Here we go!.. Let's see what u have got for us today 👊

I think six counts without jumps especially if you follow iron wolf's count is like time under tension for the whole body. Is similar to some art of fight where you got to activate your whole body during the fight.

Thanks.

Do a jump a leg lift a squat. Do them all oh yeah, do knuckle push ups with the burpee. Warrior Dads Attention !

I have a final solution for this dilemma. Do your burpees without the jump. Then do your jumping jacks after. Use the time for jumping jacks to focus on the form and burpees time for burpees form

Nice!

Have to wonder about the impact on the knees/body though, by just adding a plyo jump to a few hundred burpees per week, Vs running 'distance' weekly (30km+), and how both would compare in effects on the body...

@busydadtraining

Жыл бұрын

I'm sure that much running would be more problematic than just a few hundred plyo burpees, but I suspect that neither would be beneficial for the joints over the long term

Thanks (again)!

Makes sense

Jumping greatly increases the cardiovascular pump, but isn't necessary with burpees as you're still jumping in and out and standing back up. Up to the individual, but I see a lot of people without the jump that are military, so that works for me.

Does one have to jump within the burpee, or within the exercise session? I jump for lymphatic reasons, and jumps sink my burpees. So I stopped, and just extended the jumping before/after.

Is it necessary to touch your toes and do the rocking chair motion before putting your hands on the ground?

@busydadtraining

Жыл бұрын

Not necessary. I do find the toe tap helpful for hamstring activation. The rocking chair is excellent for the quads, but it's not part of how I train.

Do 100 straight unbroken burpees without the jump one day, time it, and note how you feel. The next day do 100 straight with the jump, and notice how much for stimulus you get to your legs and your cardiovascular system. And as for the joints go, I have been doing burpees with a jump for over 20 years and I feel great at 42. No pains whatsoever and I have great mobility.

Jump burpees are really tough, far harder than 6-counts. But, because of this it's really quite difficult to match the volume possible with 6-counts. I tend to do jump burpees in shorter, more intense, sessions and 6-counts for longer, more sustained effort sessions. Vaguely the equivalent of running 8km, or doing 200m sprints - they are focused on different aspects of fitness.

@@keithgoddard4192 I somewhat disagree about not being able to do the same amount volume. I regularly do a 6 count with a jump for 100-200 unbroken reps, as a "buy in" to my regular full body strength and conditioning workouts. You just need to build up to it. I think both variations are very valuable though. I just really disagree with this guy saying the jump is bad for you. It think not jumping as you age is bad for you, personally. It is the same reason I sprint. Use it or lose it.

@@jasonwelsh417 I think you make a good point in that a small jump at the end activates the fast twitch fibers which are necessary for explosive strength. If you don't use them you will lose them. I think there's an argument for including the jump either periodically in training for higher levels or as a means to keep advancing. That is, there could be a level 5 or level 6 to the BDP. And I'm sure it will be fine on the joints too. Heck, if people can jump rope for 30 minutes regularly, they can add a small jump at the end of a burpee as well.

Hey my friend. I would recommend training your push ups before you begin BDP. Each day, try to do 5 sets of 5 reps with good form. Do those sets at different junctures throughout the day so that your body can recover between sets. Then, on Sunday, see how many reps you can perform in one set with good form. Cut that number in half, and make the number your working set for the next week, and once again do 5 sets per day. Do this untl you can do 20 push ups with good form. And as soon as you can, jump right into BDP.

Have you made a video on losing body fat? I'm 23 years old now but I would like to see from your perspective how you maintained your body with low body fat as well Also, do you have stretch marks and made a video on them? I have some and would like to know if they fade over time

80 minutes c’est parce que ce programme, comme son nom l’indique, a été créé pour des gens dont le mode de vie ne permet pas de consacrer beaucoup plus de temps à l’entraînement. Après 6 semaines, je peux dire que les 80 minutes sont très productives et permettent d’avoir du temps pour récupérer, effectivement. Si tu fais en plus des tractions (tous les jours en ce qui me concerne, mais Max fait ça aussi), pronation et supination, tu as quelque chose d’assez complet qui prend en compte ton dos et tes biceps. J’ai décidé aussi d’inclure les étirements de la méthode Lafay sur mes jours de repos, je trouve que c’est un bon moyen de se sentir vraiment bien après tout ça. Bon entraînement

The jump seems unnecessary. I can get more reps in without the jump and do other exercises for the jump.
