I added jump rope to my work out this week. Jump Rope is good since:
- Train your leg muscle and train for forefoot landing
- Avoid the knee damage since the impact of each jump or step is absorbed by
the balls of your feet rather than the heels
- Combination of an aerobic workout and coordination-building footwork. (For
running you want to increase your cadence to 160 to 180 steps per minute)
-It's a perfect warm up exercise in winter.And you could do it indoors when weather is harsh.
All you need is just a rope. Also do it on a soft surface if possible.
