Is jump rope the most underrated exercise? 10 mins of jump rope = 30 mins of running 👀

[O.T.I.S.]

Yes

We've had this discussion on here a few times.

It's a dope workout and mandatory.

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Gotta learn how to skip, though. Just jumping up and down will not last long.

criss cross double unders 5-10 mins...

Yes and it's harder than most folks think. Sounds simple but most people will gas at a min and probably sooner. In my boxing classes we do it for 5 minutes as a warm up and took me a while to get that far without stopping.

Still trying to get the boxer skip down.

How do I do it at all? I always trip after like 4 seconds

 

[BrothaZay]

Depends on the state of your joints/tendons.


Nothing beats swimming.

Can you rank

Jump rope. Swimming and burpees

There’s no rank. Jump rope is good for strengthening your calves, toning your legs and as a HIIT workout. A rope is cheap and you can do it literally anywhere.

Swimming is perfect as it’s low impact, a great aerobic exercise and you can go at your own pace. If you’re injured, it’s a great substitute while you’re recovering. I sprained my knee recently so I swam during my reconvalescence.

Burpees is a great HIIT workout again as it can be done anywhere. It works out your whole body but to get the maximum out of it, you have to do it consistently… e.g. I’ll do 10x10 sets with 20-30 second breaks in between each set.

I use to jump rope regularly everyday for 30 minutes. Back when I played organized bball, it helped improve my foot speed.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

I’ve been jumping lately. It took me a minute to get back right but now I’m looking like I did back in the day. Great exercise and very easy to do at home.

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

Lost 35 pounds doing it every day

Outstanding.

 

[levitate]

It’s so fukking strenuous when you are out of shape.

I’m DONE after 10 minutes.

coli brehs + jump rope =

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

As a former boxer I agree. Doing it straight for 20+ min will yield a lot of positive results for your cardiovascular fitness

Did a jump robe bootcamp once. Got me right in 2 weeks.
