burpee
Squat, plank, jump
A burpee is a calisthenics exercise combining a squat, plank, and jump in rapid sequence.
From standing, you drop into a squat, kick your legs back into a plank position, return to the squat, then jump upward with arms overhead.
Burpees are notorious for their intensity and appear frequently in CrossFit and military fitness training: We had to do fifty burpees as punishment.
