Tuck Jump Burpee
A burpee to a straight-arm plank whose leap pulls both knees to the chest in the air; land soft and drop straight into the next rep.
How to do it
Setup
Stand tall, feet shoulder-width.
Steps
- Squat, hands down, and jump the feet back to a straight-arm plank.
- Jump the feet back in under the hips.
- Leap and pull both knees up to the chest.
- Land soft on bent knees and drop into the next rep.
Common mistakes
Rounding forward to meet the knees: the chest stays up; the knees come to it. Stiff landings: the knees bend into the catch. Hips sagging in the plank as fatigue builds: shorter set, full reps.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale landing.
