If I had to choose on exercise to rule them all, there’s no doubt in my mind that the burpee would be it.
Burpees have it all: they’re cardio, strength training, balance, plyometrics and functional fitness all rolled up into one, incredible, mind-blowing exercise.

That’s why I’m declaring burpees the official exercise of 12 Minute Athlete.
