NOTES:

Super simple - reps are super manageable  - shoulders will be burning - just keep moving!!

The shoulder press may be performed sitting if you need to for midline stability (mamas).

Otherwise you may perform them standing with either a single kb held in both hands at the chest or a set of dumbbells held at the shoulders.

For the shoulder press keep the rib cage down, bring the dumbbells all the way down to the shoulders each time and get them completely locked out overhead with the biceps in the ears!

For the burpees you may perform regular burpees with either a jump in and out or step in and out.  Getting the chest to the ground each time.  OR you may do knee push up burpees - no push up burpees - even elevated burpees if necessary to keep moving.

Make sure that you don't allow the elbows to flare out during the push up and that you work to keep the belly tight and not do a crazy snake off of the ground each time.
