Agility: Burpee

What a fantastic tool. I 've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...
Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

The beginning of exercise is the same as the squat thrust, bring feet together up underneath chest. From there move weight backwards and jump up.

Similar to a squat thrust, begin in a squat position with hands on the floor in front of you.

Then kick your feet back to a pushup position and then return your feet to the squat position.

Finally, leap up as high as possible from the squat position.

COACHING POINTS

Make sure you leave the ground as you jump up and clap your hands above your head.

 

PROGRESSION

If you're feeling extra brave you can add a press-up into the burpee routine to make it even more physically challenging!

You can also do drop sets of burpees, starting with 10. Then after a short break you do 9 burpees, then 8, then 7 and so on.
