Plus, burpees are intimidating! Sticking to the pushup-free version just felt safer.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Burpee Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the name of being a fitness beast, I wanted to test how many chest-to-the-ground burpees I could do in a row while maintaining good form. It would be a test of both physical and mental strength; one that would hopefully help me crush my future HIIT classes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/hiit-workouts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>7 HIIT Workouts That Incinerate Fat<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d still keep up with my usual HIIT classes, but I was eager to see how the extra burpees would move the needle. I planned to bang out my daily set around lunchtime.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Week One<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>And so it began! On my first day of the burpee challenge, I got through 18 burpees in a row.<\/p>\n<p>After the first few days, my body felt a bit worn out from the uptick in activity. I felt a twinge of dread; this was going to be a <em>long<\/em> month. I had to fight the temptation to bail.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my fatigue, though, the number of burpees I could do slowly crept up as the days passed. However, as that number grew, so did the anticipation I felt before each daily set (especially on cold, rainy Chicago days). The growing challenge scared me a bit\u2014but I always managed to power through.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of week one, I reached a full 22 burpees\u2014and was pleased with myself for starting off strong. I knew once I broke through my mental block, I could churn out more impressive numbers in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Week Two<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As I headed into my second week of burpees, I felt motivated to get out of my comfort zone and <em>work<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Two days in, I hit 25 burpees.

but I also reached an impressive 40 burpees in a row at home.<\/p>\n<p>Though I could have tried to push even beyond that, I decided to focus on hitting 40 burpees every day of the week. I wanted to train my endurance so I could reliably hit the 40 mark later on. I couldn\u2019t believe how easy those last 10 burpees felt by the end of the week.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What Burpees Taught Me<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to improving my fitness and making me feel strong and athletic, my burpee challenge also developed my mental strength and shattered the limitations I\u2019d previously put on myself.<\/p>\n<p>So often, we assume we can\u2019t do certain things, or get stuck in our comfort zone, but I learned that pushing past these obstacles is a <em>huge<\/em> game-changer.<\/p>\n<p>Though focusing on something I considered a weakness felt uncomfortable (and seriously checked my ego) at first, I\u2019m really glad I did it. I feel incredibly empowered after challenging myself and accomplishing a new goal.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I know I can truly do whatever I put my mind to\u2014fitness-related or not! I can\u2019t wait to show off my full, chest-to-the-ground burpees in HIIT class from here on out.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Diggin\u2019 What\u2019s Good?
