Today's Fitness Friday features Skipping Rope!
About Skipping Rope
Skipping rope is a highly effective lower body plyometric exercise.
Benefits
An effective exercise to help develop cardiovascular capacity, skipping rope is a great tool to be used to add to your cardio routine or as a warm up for your workout. The single leg version of skipping can still be used as a warm up. To get an even greater benefit, use this lower body plyometric exercise to work on single leg power and ankle stability.
