The Year-One Jump Rope Workout
 | Bodyweightbasics.com celebrates its one-year birthday today. My, they grow old so quickly dont they? Next thing you know it'll be old enough to drive... In all seriousness, heres a pretty good conditioning workout to use. Youll need a jump rope (heres the one I use: Lifeline Jumprope and a wrist watch with a timer on it, I suggest an Ironman watch by Timex. The workout is simple: 30-seconds "on" with the jump rope, then 1 pushup, then 30 seconds of "rest" -- if you could call it that. Start with 10 total minutes and work up to 20 over time. When you make 20, add another pushup and progress like so. The weathers getting warmer here and I busted this one out last week. I'm a tad rusty on the rope jumping front but it'll come back with time. If you have a heart rate monitor, check your results from this workout – you will be pleasantly surprised. Let me know how it goes. On to the next 365! Train hard, John Wood P.S. Again, if you need a good jump rope, (and who doesn't?) heres the one I recommend: Lifeline USA Power Jumprope |
