Single leg burpee

Starting position:

Take a position standing on one leg with the other leg slightly bent and lifted upwards and backwards with hands relaxed alongside your body.

Exercise:

Push-up, squat on one leg and jump up!

Move from the standing position dynamically through a squat into a push-up with hands on the floor slightly wider than shoulder width. Then make a push-up and let your chest touch the floor. Having done the push-up, move the working leg with a jump towards your hands and then stand and jump up high on the one leg. After the jump, move smoothly to a squat again and after the squat to leaning on your hands and then jumping the leg back to get into the push-up position again and repeat the entire movement. Do the required number of repetitions and switch the working leg.

Remember:

Mastering the separate squat and push-up techniques is important for correct reinforcement of the entire movement!

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

One leg, the idle leg, remains in the air all the time.

Recommendation:

Prior to starting this burpee exercise it is useful to first understand and learn the correct techniques for components of this complex exercise, in particular the squat and the push-up techniques!

To reduce the push-up resistance you can start with hands on an elevated platform to have an easier angle.
