How to do it

Burpee box jump overs are an advanced exercise that combines the explosive power of a burpee with the agility and coordination of jumping over an obstacle.

Stand facing the box with your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your chest up, shoulders back, and core engaged throughout the movement. Begin by squatting down and placing your hands on the ground in front of you, shoulder-width apart. Jump both feet back into a plank position, keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels.

Perform a push-up by bending your elbows and lowering your chest towards the ground. You can also modify by skipping the push-up if needed. Jump both feet back towards your hands, returning to the squat position. From the squat position after the burpee, explosively jump upward, swinging your arms for momentum. Clear the box entirely, aiming to jump over it and land on the opposite side. As you land on the other side of the box, absorb the impact by bending your knees and hips to prepare for the next repetition.

Immediately perform another burpee on the opposite side of the box, followed by another jump over the box. Continue alternating sides with each repetition. Start with a manageable number of repetitions and sets based on your fitness level. As you become more proficient, you can increase the number of repetitions and sets.
