Step-Back Burpee
The burpee walked, not jumped: step one foot back at a time into the plank, step them back in and stand tall; the low-impact door into the family.
How to do it
Setup
Stand tall, feet shoulder-width.
Steps
- Squat down and put the hands on the floor.
- Step one foot back, then the other, into a plank.
- Do a push-up chest to the floor.
- Step the feet back in one at a time and stand tall.
Common mistakes
Hips swinging as a foot steps back: brace the trunk before each step. Rushing back into a jump: the steps ARE the exercise. Rounding up from the floor: stand tall through the hips.
Breathing
Exhale on the push-up and as you stand.
