    I do them with a pushup in it

    and I do 10 sets of 20 in 22 minutes (that's my best yet) but it is a killer

    Jumping chins are easier than regular chins because you already have the body's momentum moving upwards. Regular chinups are harder because you have to overcome inertia, the body begins at rest.

    Still, that looks like a hell of a workout. You could do something similar with a swingset if you had it high enough that you do chins.

    Burpees are a full-body calisthenics workout that focuses on increasing muscular strength and endurance in both the lower and upper body. It is one of the foremost effective MMA exercises.

    This exercise requires a full stretch of your body, wear a suitable outfit that will provide comfort and ease to you.
