The Awesome Benefits Of Burpees

Some individuals love them and some hate them, but burpees are no doubt one of the most effective exercises you can do. Burpees test your cardiovascular endurance and your strength at the same time, making them highly efficient. And they're not a new fad—burpees have been around since the 1930s. They were invented by a physiologist named Royal Burpee (yes, that was his real name). The United States military quickly started using the burpee to test the fitness level of its soldiers, and it has been a popular exercise ever since.
