Being in my 4th week of training and diet schedule I have started incorporating additional tools, exercises and variations to keep constantly my body challenged and pushing the limits. This week I started adding jumping rope to my exercises to get that heart ticking and that fat shredding.
As usually Saturdays I have cardio and when the weather allows I am having my Muay Thai lessons outside. And as with every fighting and combat/ cardio workouts is a perfect addition to add jumping rope to it, just like Rocky does.
So this is exactly what I do! I go Rocky! (not in his level yet, but working on it).
Cardio session with Jumping rope
As gong for 10-20 minutes is quite difficult with a regular jumping, I am alternating the regular skipping with both legs to running or straight legs – just liek Rocky. (Ok, minus the double skipping part, as not there yet, but determined to try).
