MRTT/SRTT September BURPEE Challenge

by MRTT/SRTT Louisville, KY Chapter Leader, Allison Reid


MRTT/SRTT September Monthly Challenge - BURPEES

When you think of September, you might think of cooler weather, leaves starting to change colors or large cups of pumpkin spice lattes….well, now when you think of September you will forever think of BURPEES! You asked (I’m looking at you Jenny *wink* *wink*), and we listened. Join us this month in completing a progressive series of daily burpees to help improve your overall strength! Strengthening your muscles will help improve your running form and prevent injuries. 

If you are like me, I know what you are thinking….”BURPEES?!?!?! #$%& I can’t do burpees!!!” Well, this group excels at providing motivation, accountability and support. Do as many of the burpees as you can, track your success on the challenge page and we will celebrate your success with you. ALWAYS listen to your body. Modify the exercise, change the amount of reps or the amount of days you complete the burpees. Make the challenge work for you and your personal goals. 

For the running portion of this challenge, set a monthly mileage goal and report to us regularly on how it is going. Please track your own mileage and update miles in your posts on the challenge page. 

Happy September, everyone! We cannot wait to hear how a month of burpees impacted you!



Here is the challenge for you.  This comes straight from HeandSheEatsClean:  


This challenge was designed to be something that you do in addition to your normal workout (which is hopefully one of our workout plans!). We have 4, 6, and 12-week workout plans for all fitness levels!
If you are advanced and this is too easy for you, you can double or triple each day. If this is too difficult, cut the reps down and work your way up. This challenge is totally customizable based on your fitness level. You can do these all at one time or spread them out throughout the day. Your choice!

Have a great month!
