Hiiiii! My sweet and short HIIT workout today is a modified version of a burpee. Why it's great:
⚪️ It's low-impact if you have bad joints, also great if you just had leg day yesterday (like me) and don't want to over do it, but still want to get in some good cardio without killing your legs
⚪️ It works multiple joints for a dynamic full-body exercise
⚪️ It will get your HR up to burn calories during and after your workout
⚪️ It doesn't require any equipment
Method:
1. Start in a crouching position (traditional burpee) with hands in front of you, hop both feet back [modification for bad knees/sore legs: instead of hopping both feet out, extend one foot at a time]
2. Once both legs are extended, perform a hand release push-up [modification for weak wrists: perform in a fist]
3. Stand up
4. Perform high knees for 6 reps (ea side counts as 1) [modification for weak joints: perform marching in place]
5. Get back down into crouch position and repeat
Perform 100 reps with 60 second break every 20 reps!
