One of the best things about jump rope is the ability to enjoy at-home workouts that fit your lifestyle and help you achieve your fitness goals.
Most members of JRD Nation have busy lives. They are trying to juggle school, work, family and friends all while trying to be fit.
Jumping rope gives you the freedom to workout anywhere, anytime. All you need are your trusty rope and space to #dothething.
Today, we’re sharing a simple at-home workout that anyone can do.
Remember: you can get four full weeks of workouts like this with our weight loss challenge here.
Workout Prep
We don’t often show it in our videos, but we ALWAYS warm up before jumping rope.
It’s super important to make sure you get blood pumping to your muscles and stretch or roll out any stiffness before you begin jumping rope.
The only thing worse than missing a day of working out is missing weeks of exercise because you got hurt from not being adequately warmed up.
Once you’re all limber, it’s time to start skipping.
Workout Routine
This routine is low-impact, but high intensity. Spin the rope as fast as you can while minimizing your overall movement as you barely come off the ground.
Let the rope do most of the work and keep your core tight to sustain the intensity.
