Jump ropes
Jumping ropes for fitness
Jumping can take some practice. Although entire body is used, one can feel the working of lower arms and lower legs. At first these muscles may get tired or even cramp. But they should gain more stamina after a few weeks of jumping at least twice a week. Start with short like 15 to 20 second bouts of jumping interspersed with 30 to 40 seconds of complete rest or light marching in place and repeat this pattern 5 to 10 times. As stamina increases, lengthen jump bouts and shorten the rests. If one can jump for at least five minutes straight, mix up the footwork. Try hopping on one foot then the other at each turn or alternate landing on the heel of one foot and then on the ball of the other. To master a new move, practice without the rope at first. Be patient as jumping rope takes skill and coordination. With thorough practice, one can improve the skills surprisingly fast. As with any exercise program, make sure to stretch afterwards. If the forearms or lower legs get tight while jumping, stretch them out during the rest breaks
