Why Jump Rope?: To Learn a New Skill

Learn something new!

There are hundreds of exercise options out there to chose from, we are all but pelted with hot new routines and ideas, and that’s a good thing, however I am left to wonder, do they teach a skill?

Learning the skill of jumping rope will add a fresh dimension to your workout, and the ways in which the rope can be used are many, thus expanding your exercise vocabulary.  

Learning a new skill benefits many areas of your brain and the jump rope in particular is a full-body exercise that can increase synapse strength and neurological connection.  

Jumping Rope is a skill you can take with you whereever you go.  All you need is your rope, a clear space, your sneakers and you.

Once you know how to do it, you will never forget.  You may have to dust off your skills after a lay off, but it will come right back to you.
