I know this challenge was floating around in another thread. I timed myself for the first time tonight, and I was right at 7 minutes. I knew I wouldn't sniff 5, but was hoping to get close to 6. How is everyone else on this? How have you progressed if you've been working towards the challenge?

I could probably get 5 or under...

But I’m not tall so I don’t have nearly as far to go as guys over 6 ft.

Burpees are the dumbest exercise out there; people eventually degrade into awkwardly flopping around for the sake of wearing themselves out.

Not at all. I freaking hate burpees but they are a full body exercise and can crush you cardiovascularly no matter how fast your mile time is.

In USMC boot camp, when the instructors wanted to break the entire platoon off; it wasn’t going for a long run or anything like that. It was burpees

I'll just say not as fast as you and not as fast as I would like.

When I traveled a lot and spent most nights in shitty hotels, this was my go-to workout

I got it down to 6 minutes eventually

I’d probably be around 8 or 9 right now

5 minutes is really fricking fast

No! No, no, not 6! I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes? You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel. 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby.
