Thank you so much for these modifications. I googled and you were the first trainer that really understood that modifications need to be made for people that are actually obese!!! So many workouts are designed for people that are already in shape. You have a new subscriber, thanks again.

Right! I'm just starting out on my weight lose journey and I've never done anything like this before. I have no strength and my weight certainly doesn't help. Makes me pretty discouraged a lot of the time because I can't even do the "easy" beginner stuff.
This is such a HUGE help to those of us who are trying to lose weight but are not able to do all the things that someone smaller/more fit can do!
Peanut is the best part of the video. LOL! But seriously, these are great modifications for beginners. I hate when people start off like you're an elite athlete with every "beginner" exercise. And did I mention Peanut made my day???

Right! I'm just starting out on my weight lose journey and I've never done anything like this before. So I have absolutely no strength and many many of the beginner stuff is way to hard for me. Makes me pretty discouraged a lot of the times because I can't even do the "easy" stuff. And Peanut is totally cute!
I love these modifications. Will definately be trying the out when needed. You rock Jessica
Thanks, this is great!. I always skipped those videos because I couldn't do the whole thing due to an old knee injury. Now I have more options.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing this vid. I feel that burpees are definitely one of the hardest whole body workouts you can do. They’re awesome for that one stop shop for the whole body but very difficult and for that reason some may deter or get discouraged from doing them. It’s great to have a modified version so you can work on your ability and strength to do the original and more. Bravo! 👍🏾👍🏾
I have been looking for a modified burpee move for awhile. I'm so glad I came right to this. Thanks!
Thank you so much, having 4 kids took a toll on my back so burpees and mountain climbers do more harm than good, even when I do them slow to make sure I have good form. Also, I don't have the strongest ankles, I was told in Jr High track was out due to weak ankles and shin splints so no jumping either, I love these modifications, thank you so much!
YES!!!! Just what the doctor ordered. I am doing T25 and had to do a lot of walking in place for some of the high impact movements. I found my knees, ankles, and shins hurt after doing these high impact exercises. Thank you so much for giving a great alternative to these exercises.
Thank you! I have autoimmune arthritis and chronic pain. I really needed these.

Me too!! what helped you?
Thank you so much for showing us how to modify burpees and,climbers, Jessica! This is so helpful! You are the best!
Thank you so much for teaching/showing low impact versions of the high impact ones. I am straying away from high impact cardio.
Awww! Peanut is so cute. Thank you for these modifications!! I needed them!
Thank you these were great modifications.
Some great ideas, thanks! I modified the Insanity workout while using a walker. The burpees were not something I could do. I modified the squat jumps by doing simple knee bends, figuring it's still going to work the hamstrings and quads. I'm not sure if I can kick my legs back, even using a chair, but I'll give it a go and see what happens.
Omg this is such a big help, a whole word is opening, thx sooo much!!
I just started 9 Week Control Freak (BeachBody program) and sooooo needed this! I'm tall and really struggle with burpies. Thank you!
My pleasure Valgal0372! Hopefully this will keep you in action during some of our higher intensity workouts :)
OMG! Thank you! Thank you!!! I'm a fan on your facebook page as well... I've injured my neck - so burpees, climbers, pushups, and high impact moves kill me... this is great!
Really needed a modification for burpees, thanks :)
As a beginner I found this really helpful. Thank you. Also, your dog is adorable!
Thank you Jessica, I have a client that didn't feel like she could do burpees yet. This was very helpful. 🙌
Thanks for demonstrating how to workout around a pet. I have cats who find my workouts fascinating, and love napping on the yoga mat.
This is just what I needed. Thanks Jessica
great video. thanks
This is great thank you. I also saw another video out here somewhere where you could do side planks on the side of a desk or table. None of this had occured to me. hehe, peanut cracks me up..the minute you are done actually exercising THEN he goes to the little mat in the corner.
Thanks Jess! I was wondering if you were gonna do a fusion sculpt #2 workout?..or more cardio+sculpt workouts. I LOVE them!
Thanks for this video! I'm doing a month of burpees, and I like having a way to change them up depending on how I'm feeling. Also, nice work, Peanut!!
Thank you for all of this!
So glad you found it helpful MsBeautifulalicia! :-)
Thanks! This helped me so much! You are the best :)
I did these today 2 sets of 10band i felt it better than if you hit the floor enjoyed this keep it coming!!!
Ugghhhhh! !!! Thank you very much! I kept having to stop my workout because Mr Fit Guy who has been working out since he was six months was doing way to much for this beginner!
yes thank you! this is soooo helpful! new subbie😊😊😊😊
Thanks for the help!
Your dog cracked me up! Thank you for the examples of modified exercises.
Needed this! Thanks and love your little Peanut ... 💕🤗💕
As an overweight person, I came looking for burpee modifications and this is just the ticket. Thank you so much! P.S.: Peanut is a legend!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks so much! Definitely going to give these a try tomorrow. How many sets should I do?
loved it totally awesome!!
Thank you so much. I am 250lbs woman. Fat. I am okay with that work for myself (no one else should be called that) I was dx with EDS as a teen and cannot go to the gym without serious injury. I miss sports and finally gotten back in workouts. But ashamed to admit but everything needs to be modified. Thank you for showing respect. This is short, to the point, and focused.
So helpful -- thank you so much!! Nice to know I can do these high intensity moves without hurting myself!

Nice job!
Thanks Jessica. Great modification. I always worry about little Peanut. but you are always so care.
Quick question @jessicasmithtv. With all the different types of workout routines (hitt, low impact, walks, jogging, kick boxing, etc) what would you suggest we do in a time frame for a week? Like HIT mon and wens, walk/jogging on tues and thurs, strength and stride the rest of the week. Any suggestion would be great and THANKS again for all that you do.
Thank you for this video! While I am in decent cardio shape, I run 25 miles a week, I struggle with burpees and I usually avoid them at all cost.

Roberta Corlis So glad you found it helpful! Thanks for tuning in :)
thanks for the tutorial! i'm just prepping for tomorrow's HIIT...not the easiest of workouts for pregnant girls! :)
I have knee issues and can't even bounce or jump at the moment but I tried to at least do 10 each.
thanks for doing video cause with me having big breast and short arms something i cant do on the floor .even lo your not doing it how others do it your still moving your body and thats all that matters who cares if we all do it differently just as long were doing it .thank you again .your a blessing
I have an old wrist injury and I can't support my weight on my wrists with my hands at any more than about a 45 degree angle to my forearms. Is there a way to modify burpees so I don't have have a 90 degree angle between my hand and my arm? Nobody offers any modifications for that. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks!
I have bad knees need something with no knee bending
I have OA of both knees and find these exercises fit in very well when I'm boiling the kettle for a cup of tea. Short bursts and time well spent.
i injured my finger and I cant do a burpee, this is excellent and thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing!!! :-)
