But what if we told you there was a way to get the benefits of burpees with a more toned-down, lower-impact move? Introducing modified burpees. While the name might not be too exciting, just know this variation on the classic move is a great way to get that cardio burn without feeling like you’re in over your head. Maintaining energy in your every movement will make sure even this dialed-down, low-impact version of a burpee will still spike your heart rate and strengthen your body. If you want to scale back the modified burpee even further, using a chair instead of lowering all the way to the floor is a great way to increase your heart rate without jumping right into the move.
