What is the Burpee Biathlon™?
The Burpee Biathlon™ is a unique fusion of strength training and endurance that challenges athletes in a whole new way! This event was created by Renov8 Fitness founder, Heather Binns, as a combination of her love of running with her “love” of burpees 😉
How does the Burpee Biathlon™ work?

When is the Burpee Biathlon™?

What is a burpee?
The burpee, a full-body exercise, is the cornerstone of the Burpee Biathlon™. Let’s break it down. Start in a standing position, then drop down into a squat, kick your legs back, perform a push-up, return to a squat, and finally, jump explosively. Burpees engage multiple muscle groups, including the legs, core, chest, shoulders, and arms. View a burpee video HERE.
