1. If you are not familiar with Burpees, it is important to understand the body mechanics of the basic exercise before trying more difficult variations in order to prevent injury.
2. Activate your core while in the plank position. StrongBoard Balance will add an additional instability aspect to the exercise which will require more core strength and activation than the Basic Burpee.
3. When jumping during this exercise, you also press the board up toward the ceiling. Adding the board will not only add weight to your jump making the jump more difficult, but it will also help tone your shoulders while pressing the board up.
StrongBoard Balance utilizes MULTI SPRING TECHNOLOGY™ that works with your body to deliver the perfect amount of stimulation to keep your core musculature and stabilizing muscles engaged and contracted, while training your central nervous system, improving posture, proprioception and reaction time.
