If your like me and have a short attention span and need new exercises to keep you interested then skipping is for you!
I remember skipping all the time when I was in school and have recently rediscovered my love for skipping.
Adding it to my cardio routine and at the end of a my leg sessions I am using it to strengthen my legs and to shake up the cardio.
Skipping is a great exercise to work the heart and lungs, improve your fitness and muscle strength, as well as improving your balance and coordination.
As well as working your physical fitness it will also challenge your mental fitness as you will need to engage both sides of your brain to keep you coordination.
As this exercise can be done anywhere there are no excuses to not grab a rope and skip away! Don't be disheartened if it takes you a will to get the hang of it, soon enough you will be skipping faster and lighter than a boxer!!
