Intense CrossFit 100 rep Burpee Challenge (with Guidance)

Welcome to the Intense CrossFit 100 rep Burpee Challenge.

The title says it all, it’s a challenge and you will be doing one movement, burpees.

But before you start, let’s talk a little bit about how you can approach this challenge and how you can adjust it to your fitness level.

Let’s get to the challenge.

Warmup

Before we start, I want to remind you to never skip your warm-up!

It’s just as important as your actual workout.

Just to give you a few important facts on why you should warm up:

• Increases blood flow
• Reduces chance of injury
• Increases range of motion
• Improves performance

I could go on and keep rambling about the importance of warming up but I already did that in a different article. (click below to learn more)

If you feel a little more stiffness in your body after a long day of work, use this warm-up routine:

How to approach it?

There it is guys – the Intense CrossFit 100 rep Burpee Challenge.

There are quite a few ways on how to approach this workout.

1. The first option is obvioulsy is going as hard as you can and don’t stop until you hit that 100 rep number. The goal here is to start with a moderate pace in the beginning and accumulate those reps. By the time you hit 60 reps or so, you can start increasing the pace and finish off the challenge on a good note.
2. The second option is to treat this challenge as an EMOM workout. Pick a number of reps that you can do within 45 seconds and repeat that number each minute until you hit the 100 rep mark. The benefit of that strategy is to give yourself some rest time in between the minutes which will decrease the intensity.

Scaling options

If regular burpees are too much for you, you can opt for the “no push-up” burpee.

If you have the feeling that regular burpees are too easy for you, opt for the burpee box jumps.

This evening, I kept it simple!

Workout for time:
100 burpee box jumps!

Scaling:
(1) Do a burpee + step-up or
(2) No jumps, only step-ups for burpee & box

Let me know how it goes!
