tell me more about your skipping-for-exercise routine

• thewhitetulip 6y ago
  Buy a good skipping rope, should be heavy. Do maximum sets of skipping that you can. I started with 100. Because I used to do Yoga for 40min daoly, used to cycle 72km once a week, so I had built that stamina. You can start with sets. Sets of 10/30 whatever suits you. Weekly, either increase the set count or the speed of jumping For eg, I used to do 100 in 1min. Yesterday I did 100 in 29seconds! I am also doing skipping based on minutes now. Yesterday, I skipped for 3min 45seconds. My goal is to skip for 5 to 10 min nonstop. They say x min skipping burns twice calories as x min running!

    Thanks for the deets :) I was under the impression you were using skipping-locomotion as exercise, rather than running or skipping rope. I was wondering if that was a thing... skipping for exercise.

      Oh no. I didn't even know we could do that :D
