http://bit.ly/365workouts demos how to do burpees. more info at: http://workout-of-the-day.com/how-to-do-proper-burpees/

These are a staple exercise in crossfit workouts and one of my favorite exercises in general. You move a lot of mass over a long distance. Lots of work = lots of calories burned.

can you do burpees 4 or 5 times per week??? or should it only be 1-3 times a week???

@motorcyclemike636 lmao. No it doesn't. Clapping is useless. Personally, I hate clapping during any jump exercise - burpees, jumping jacks, whatever.

This guy's real problem was doing the worm during his pushup because he's trying to go faster than he can actually handle.

a PROPER burpee has an overhead clap at the top

Depends where you learn in. When ever I do them for MMA, wrestling in school or in ROTC, I always do full pushups. In ROTC, its more of an eight count body builder.

Not completely proper but much better than what youtube usually offers.

The last component you need to make this perfect is to keep your body straight through the pushup movement. You drop your belly.
