Burpees

Since moving to Seattle I've been winded a lot.  I'm huffing up every hill, and stairs can be heart-attack scary.  My lungs feel small, and unless I'm standing still or walking on flat ground, I feel like it's really hard to catch my breath.

Time to get some conditioning work back in my routine.  I have no gear (read: kettlebell), and running is out until Suzi's hips are better, so I'm left with burpees.  Gonna start with numbers that seem small and adjust as necessary.  Eventually I'd like the working intervals to be larger than the rest intervals, and be working for about 15 minutes.  Might take a while.  Also, I might buy a kettlebell at some point, if I decide I liked swings and snatches more than burpees.
