First starting out on the rope.

Sometimes it takes a while to get back in the swing of things. Jumping rope is something that has to be practiced to stay good at it. If you haven't jumped in awhile. Here is a way to get started again. Start slow and move at your own pace.
  1. Warm up – brisk walk for 2-3 minutes
  2. Jump rope – 20 to 30 seconds
  3. Rest for 1 minute
  4. Repeat nos. 1 to 3 five times.

Workout must be done 3 times each week, adding 10-15 seconds of jumping per week. The goal is to jump rope continuously for 3 minutes. The routine will be changed into this:

  1. Warm up
  2. Jump rope for 3 minutes
  3. Rest 60 seconds
  4. Repeat 5 times
Remember, start out slow and then move up slowly.
Have fun!
