Jump Rope Fitness For Beginners by laurend1985(f): 11:09pm On Oct 13, 2012 |
Jumping rope can get you in shape fast but it can be a tough workout and hard on your body. If you are a beginner, here is a program that can get you started and won't wreck your joints. A good jump rope can cost you less than $15 so this is another inexpensive workout. Preparation Before you begin, you want to make sure you are not jumping on cement. You should jump on a hardwood floor or if you are on cement, jump on a yoga mat or thin carpet. Warm-up for 3 to 4 minutes before beginning, like walking in place. * If you have problems with your lower extremities, ask your doctor about doing this program.

I did this workout today and I think beginners should rest for 2 minutes between each cycle or circuit. 1 Like |
