How many of you have a jumprope?

It is an excellent exercise.

Jumping can be kind of hard at this point

However I have found to *step* it works just as well

The longer, the more you can do the better ..

Takes time to build yourself up.

So easy, simple, doesn't cost much, works well ..

Try it and let us know :)

**I do have some rubber tubing (resistance) I could use until I get to a toy store . I used to love to jump rope. I'll try those steps and then see if/what I can do. Whoohooo, granny jump-roper. You think? Another childhood goodie...skipping ;D.

**Absolutely right ..

All those *youthful* activities can still be done now

Work even better too :)

Seriously, we do rope jumping and skipping at the gym when we do a circuit!!! I am the absolute WORST in the whole place at doing this!! Talk about two left feet!! It is kinda funny though watching the "little girl" coming out in some of the ladies as they daintilly skip around! I am strong and fit but totally lack finesse. :-) Hilary
