Today’s fitness challenge is chest-to-floor burpees – how many can you do in a minute?

As part of our Staying Active summer series, we teamed up with experts to set you daily challenges to try at home, at the gym or in the park.

The aim is to get you active every day for six weeks over summer. And today’s challenge is a tough one that will send your heart-rate through the roof.

These daily challenges can be done on their own, or you can build them in to a larger workout – it’s completely up to you. As long as you’re moving, that’s what counts.

Throughout the series, fitness experts Elia and Amanda – both qualified instructors at Flykick – will be on hand to show you how to do each challenge and give you their top tips.

Check back every weekday to see what the next challenge is – you can even film your progress to make a record of how far you’ve come.

We know doing the same fitness routine every week can get really tedious, trying a new challenge every day will keep your fitness fresh and fun – and you might even learn some new moves.

How to do a chest-to-floor burpee

From a standing position, squat down and place your hands on the floor in front of you, just outside of your feet.

Jump both feet back so that you’re now in a high plank position wit straight arms.

Lower down into a push-up position – for chest-to-floor burpees your chest should touch the floor. Obviously.

If you can’t do a full push-up, drop to your knees, but still get that chest all the way to the floor.

Push up to return to your plank position, then jump the feet back in toward the hands.

From this squat position, jump explosively into the air, reaching your arms straight overhead. You’re aiming for height.
