Jump Rope

Jumping rope can be a pain, especially if you keep tripping on the rope. Use a fake jump rope to make it more fun and effective (and less embarrassing!).

The move: Make-Believe Jump-Roping Boxing

How to do it: Pretend you are holding a rope and mimic jump-roping movements with your arms as you bounce on your toes. To mix it up, hop from foot to foot, front to back, or side to side. You can also add in moves such as high knees or butt kicks. Alternate between three minutes of work and one minute of rest; that’s one round. Perform up to 10 rounds.
