Burpees

Yes, just Burpees. Everyone's favorite! Right? Here's a brief history of the Burpee from Wikipedia, just for fun:

The exercise may have been originated by a man named Lieutenant Thomas Burpee (1757-1839). He was an officer in the New Hampshire Militia during the American Revolutionary War and was described as “having the innate Burpee fondness for martial exercises”. Lt. Burpee may have used the combination of pushups and squat thrusts as a means of drilling, conditioning, and disciplining the troops under his command. In addition, the exercise may have also been used by the troops as a way to stay warm during the winters in wartime New England.

Thanks A LOT Lt. Burpee. Actually we can thank him, burpees are arguably the best exercise to improve muscular strength, endurance, power, bone density and overall definition. And they require very little space and zero equipment - no excuses! So knock out 125 today as fast as you can and you will be a better person for it. Promise.
