Perform a push-up by bending your elbows and lowering your chest towards the ground. You can also modify by skipping the push-up if needed. Jump both feet back towards your hands, returning to the squat position. From the squat position after the burpee, explosively jump upward, swinging your arms for momentum. Clear the box entirely, aiming to jump over it and land on the opposite side. As you land on the other side of the box, absorb the impact by bending your knees and hips to prepare for the next repetition. Immediately perform another burpee on the opposite side of the box, followed by another jump over the box. Continue alternating sides with each repetition. Start with a manageable number of repetitions and sets based on your fitness level. As you become more proficient, you can increase the number of repetitions and sets.
