The Burnout for us can be one of many things.

 

Kata - Usually only the kata the lowest rank in class is working on but we will do it over and over and over on my count. I will do several at normal speed some super fast and some super slow. I usually do this drill because I think it imbeds the kata into the person and they get to feel it at differant speeds. We do this with almost no rest. As so as we pull up to finish I restart them. Really good burnout.

 

Other things I have done include

 

1. Building Leg Muscles EX (squat kicks, duck walks, low stances etc)

 

2. Speed Blocking and Punching Drills

 

3. Isometric work

 

4. Some sort of applied learing using the things we worked on in class.

 

5. Bag Work

 

6. Bull in the Ring or Guantlet Drills

 

ETC...
