When I started doing them, I was shocked that I could only do about 25 of each (I assumed I could always knock out the old 40/40).... Took me about a month or two to get back up to my 40/40. I don't intend to let myself go again.
Amen.. getting old and out of shape.. I looked in the mirror and saw a fat fk.
Now I warm up with some kettle bell swings and am up to 100 burpees daily.
I still see a fat fk in the mirror just slightly less so now.
