WATCH: Minnesota Woman Does 716 Burpees in One Hour for World Record!

A Minnesota woman broke a Guinness World Record by completing 716 chest-to-floor burpees in one hour. Tennessen said she trained for 10 months before attempting the record Sept. 11, in front of a crowd of onlookers and a panel of official judges.

Tennessen said she came up with a plan with her training. The goal was to do 13 burpees every minute, on the minute, for the first 24 minutes. "That bought me a two-minute window for me to rest," between minutes 24 and 26, she said. That put her on a pace to break the record easily, getting 716 burpees in one hour.
