BURPEE BROAD JUMP FORM TIPS:

1. Start with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Bend your knees and hinge the hips so that you can put your hands shoulder-width apart on the floor, a few inches in front of your feet.
3. From here, kick both of your feet back so that you’re in a plank position (you don’t need to hold the plank, move through it as quickly as possible)
4. Lower your chest to the floor while keeping your elbows tucked to your torso
5. Once your chest touches the floor, push your torso upwards, back into the plank position, then jump your feet forward to just behind your hands
6. From this crouched position, jump forward with both feet at the same time, landing with them, once again, shoulder-width apart. Make sure to swing your arms forward as you jump to cover more ground.
