Jumping Rope

When we were young we loved to jump rope, sing songs to it and some extremely talented children could do double Dutch!!!!
Now, it's not quite the same as you see below
Now we are lucky if we don't hit our legs as we do the 2nd jump!  It is not nearly as easy as it was when we were kids, however, there are some great benefits.
It is one of the best cardiovascular exercises out there. Hence why we get out of breath so quickly.
So let's start improving our cardiovascular system and grab a jump rope. (Just a suggestion, don't borrow your children's, you'll most likely hit yourself in the head!) The best way to begin our journey to jumping rope is, start small. Two reasons: 1st-easy to get out of breath, 2nd-we get easily frustrated when we aren't able to do something that looks like such a simple task. 
Let's set a goal of 10 repetitions total, not necessarily in a row and that's it.
Then we work or way up to eventually multiple sets of 50 repetitions.
GOOD LUCK and Congratulations in Advance on Your Success!
