This funny word keeps coming up, "BURPEE." Excuse you? Oh, you didn't mean THAT.

So what is a burpee then?? Well, it's the latest craze in quick cardio bursts combined with strength training. Here's how to do it:

• Begin in a squat position with hands on the floor in front of you
  
• Kick your feet back to a pushup position
  
• Immediately return your feet to the squat position
  
• Leap up from the squat position (off the ground for you over-achievers)
  
• Repeat, moving as fast as possible
  

You should maintain a fast pace for this exercise to get the full cardio benefit. And the plank position is going to be great for toning your upper body and core as well.

So now I know, and so do you, what this BURPEE word means....don't look for me doing these in public though. I'll save my Burpees for the privacy of my living room, thank you! ;) 

PS from Mom: I just completed 50 burpees. These things are NOT easy. Talk about raising the heart-rate and quick! Wow. Try doing as many as you can during the next commercial break of your favorite TV show. You'll feel it!
