¿Qué pasó cuando finalmente arreglé mi forma de burpee?

Escucha este artículo

The burpees has become one of the most hated and at the same time desired ceremonias by many of its practitioners. It is a sequence that represents what could be called a full body exercise. It has long been included in many deportes as a basis for general physical preparation.

How To Execute Correct Burpees?

The correct execution of a burpee or soldier includes:

  • Lower body work through a full squat
  • Upper body work by performing a push-up on the floor
  • Intense cardiovascular component performing series of dynamic repetitions.

A complete exercise that involves muscular effort, postural control, coordination and resistencia. The more demanding we are in the execution, the greater the intensity and benefits we will be able to generate.

The first thing we will see is how to perform a burpee from a technical point of view, focusing on correct execution and not on the number or speed of repetitions. A good job will allow us to make more demanding variants, or as I like to call them, “vitaminized”.

Benefits of Burpees.

Side Effects of Burpees.

Although burpees are great, it is possible to over-train or perform poorly in terms of following the correct form of the exercise:

  • Backache because of bad form or collapse of the spine.
  • Strain on the shoulder in case wrists and arms are not in the right position.
  • Knee estrés in error in landing or when jumping.
  • Injury of fatigue or overtraining in case of excessive doing without rest.

⚠️ Hint: Never be in a hurry but pay attention to form and take a break between the violent burpee sessions.

How To Do Correct Burpee?

In the starting position.

  • We will find ourselves with our feet well supported on the floor, slightly more than hip-width apart.
  • This is the position in which we will start the ejercicio and that we will look for at the end of the execution, with the knees in full extension and the arms at the sides of the body.
  • We will keep our gaze forward and our back muscles active, which will allow us to maintain an upright position appropriate for the exercise.
  • From here, and as a reference, we will mark three important basic positions that we must respect during execution and that will allow us to chain the movements in a correct and fluid way.

1. Full squat or squat position.

  • In this position, your feet should continue to rest completely on the floor, your knees facing your feet, and your hands resting on the floor between your legs.
  • We will respect the natural curvatures, keeping the spine in a neutral position and looking forward again.
  • The shoulders should not extend more than slightly above the vertical of the hips.

Fatal error.

  • The hands should not be too far forward with respect to the support of the feet .
  • In this way, we will avoid a forced position in which the spine will almost inevitably collapse, causing excessive suffering to the lumbar area.
  • It is the hips that descend by bending the knees and not the shoulders that are directed to the ground.
  • Searching for the ground with our eyes will lead the spine towards a kyphotic position that is not recommended, so we will try to maintain a visual reference in front of us.

2. With a small jump we will move to a controlled plank position in prone support.

  • In this second position it is essential to keep the core controlled , activating the muscles of the abdominal and lumbar area to work effectively and not turn it into a punishment at a structural level.
  • As a reference, we will take a line that should be generated between the occipital, shoulders, hips and heels.
  • It is important to feel that the shoulder support is above the wrists and not behind. This will enable us to regain a proper squatting position.
  • Excessively applied feet will result in the shoulder unable to hold the feet close enough to reach the hands during the recovery phase and will cause the poor back posture with the resultant danger of muscle or even joint injury.

3. The explosive hip extension with a jump will be a third position.

  • The gluteal muscles will also be engaged more in full extension of the hip.
  • In the jump up, we shall support the movement with the arms to achieve increased momentum and keep the back correct positioning and using the abdominal muscles without letting the arms go beyond the vertical of the head.
  • This way we will manage the exercise in a manner that we can be able to associate the exercise correctly and not to begin to lose control in the process of doing it.

What Happened When I Finally Fixed My Burpee Form- My Own Personal Experience.

This is Shanaya Maitra a Corporate Trainer, I would never do burpees in the course of my workout, it was impossible. However, having only taken 10 burpees a day during 30 days, I felt a drastic difference in stamina and endurance. I was able to run longer, lift better and even lost 4 kg without having to drastically change my diet. Burpees showed me the element of discipline and power of consistency.
