burpee

The exercise is named in the 1930s for American physiologist Royal H. Burpee, who developed the burpee test. He earned a PhD in applied physiology from Columbia University in 1940, and created the "burpee" exercise as part of his PhD thesis as a quick and simple way to assess fitness.


A new word and exercise that I just learned, when I first see the word, I thought, "burp + pee", is that mean if you do this exercise you'll burp and pee afterward, ha-ha.
