When I do Les Mills Combat and they do burpees, they always have a modifier just doing squats. Which is nice.
Oh the dreaded Cathe jump on and off the step. I don't do that, I just usually jump in place or do a one footed jump on the step and then step down. |

I attempted to jump up onto the step once last year -- and then proceeded to miss it! I reached forward to attempt to right myself and ended up hurting my already wonky shoulder (from too many burpees!) even further since I put all my weight into my arm to stop my fall.
No good deed goes unpunished! So now I just run up and then run down instead... |

I like doing slider burpees in place of regular burpees. Basically sliders under both feet and slide out into a plank and bring your legs back in. It's tough and I can only do so many but I feel like it's much easier on my body than regular burpees.

Or I'll do regular burpees but with my hands on a higher platform. That really makes a difference. BJ Gaddour has a workout on his DeltaFit set called Workout from Hell. It's ALL burpees! 30 rounds!! 60 seconds on, 60 sec rest. ALL BURPEES! Regular burpees, one-legged, one-armed, one leg and one arm, side, most with pushups, some with side planks, some with weights. And you know what? I LOVE this workout!
