Burpee with platform

Take a position in front of the platform with feet a little wider than shoulder width. Your arms hang loosely along your body.

Exercise:

Do a push-up, squat and jump onto the platform!

From a standing position, go smoothly into a push-up with your hands leaning against the platform and your legs extended. While doing the push-up touch the platform with your chest and then jump to the platform with both feet into a squat. From the squat on top of the box, stand straight up and then jump back down. After you have jumped down and have your hands leaning on the box again, extend your legs backward to again make the push-up position and to do the next repetition of the entire movement.

Remember:

Keep your body core firm and do not bend at the waist and keep your pelvis in a neutral position.

When jumping up and down pay attention to correct curvature of the spine and avoid making a hunch or over-bending at the waist.

Watch the position of your knees when you jump down to the floor and also when you go into a squat after jumping onto the platform. Keep your knees in parallel with your toes and do not let them rotate towards each other.

Recommendation:

The platform height should match your fitness level.
