Jumping rope is a rope designed to exercise and jump at regular intervals. This rope is perhaps the best and economical solution for daily workout. I am always and forever on a diet, similar to many other ladies out there. My main problem is exercise – I really don’t want to spend 2 hours a day working out in a gym, and I tend to get bored easily. So, my goal is to find something that I don’t have to spend hours doing and I would actually enjoy. I’ve lost weight in the past and the secret (well, it’s not a secret) is to basically eat less and work out more – pretty simple right? Wrong lol I think I can get the eating part down, since I like to cook, I am going to hit Pinterest (my favorite website) to find a bunch of low calorie food, so that part is ok. Now the exercise, as I mentioned above, my goal is to find something that can do a full body workout but not spend a lot of time doing it. Basically, I don’t want to be in the gym for an hour looking at guys in muscle shirts lifting weights. So, I decided I am going to do what one of my friends did, jumping rope to lose weight. She suggested that I get a weighted jump rope, therefore I am also working out my arms at the same time. My first impression was, are you serious? That’s like a kids toy and I would probably trip over my own feet :-) But…she convinced me to just at least give it a try, so I agreed (with hesitation). Now, you know me, I am all about the online research. So, I was Googleing around to find the benefits of jumping rope... #1 – You can burn a lot of calories in a short amount of time (love this benefit) #2 – Great for cardio health – gets that heart pumping! #3 – Get for agility and speed (I don’t really need speed and agility but hey why not! ) #4 – It’s a full body workout #5 – It’s portable, you can bring your jump rope anywhere #6 – It’s cheap (no need for fancy equipment) So, I found this great weighted jump rope on Amazon. First of all there are a TON of options to pick from, my head was spinning just searching. But I picked this specific one because it included jump rope exercises with the package. When it arrived I got started right away. How was my first jump rope workout? The truth? I think I almost died haha But really, it was a REAL workout, I was sweating and out of breath…but that is a good thing! I am really excited to continue and I urge you to join me jumping rope to lose weight. [wpforms id="3234" title="true"]
