Burpees are an intense exercise, no doubt. When you combine Burpees with an intensity technique such as interval training, what you get is incredible, puke-inducing, fat burning workouts. Here are few you should try out:

Burpees Tabata Interval Workout:

A Tabata interval consists of 20 seconds work, 10 seconds rest. Perform two rounds of the following workout:

• 4 Tabata rounds of Burpees
• 2 Tabata rounds Squat Jumps
• 2 Tabata rounds Pushups
• 2 Tabata rounds Leg Pullin

See if you can build yourself up to 5 rounds without puking

Sprints + Burpee Intervals

In the following workout, you may need a partner, or a really loud timer to help you with the intervals. Perform the following workout for 3 rounds:

• 30 Seconds Sprinting
• 30 Seconds Burpees
• 30 Seconds Rest

Work up to 8 rounds

The 2 minute Drill

The 2 minute drill is simply where you set the time for 2 minutes, and perform as many burpees within this time period as possible. You usually need quite some time to recover from this workout, so I’d be surprised if you can perform 3 rounds of the following workout:

• 2 minutes Burpees
• 1 minute Rest

I’d be impressed if you could do 3 rounds.One of the best ways to help you with your intervals is to use the GymBoss Interval Timer. It costs just $19.95, and you can program it to help you keep track of any sort of intervals you may use. Click here to grab yours today.
