February Jump Rope Challenge

Re: February Jump Rope Challenge

Good Morning All - I am pretty sure I still have a jump rope - is it too late to join up with you ladies (as I am a gluten for punishment and like to hit myself in the head with ropes )... Since this seems to be alot harder than it sounds and I am not much of an exceriser (okay I am a former couch potato until this past weekend) can I commit to 45 minutes this month and I will go for more in March if you are still doing this challenge.

Ok, no hurry

Re: February Jump Rope Challenge

Guys, I'm changing my month to all of 30 minutes. My goal is going to go from the disaster I am now, to being able to do a minute straight-no breaks-which I don't come NEAR being able to do. My tops so far has been 22 jumps in a row. That is ridiculously low and I can't even repeat it back to back.
Childhood memories gave me a flase sense of ability! But by the trime I reach my goal weight I wanna jump rope for as long as I want without even thinking about it!

Hey Chicklady - I think that is sensible rather than giving up and not reporting Kudos to you.

You'll be doing great by goal - you'll be able to go on tour

Re: February Jump Rope Challenge

yeah, hopefully it won't be a comedy tour

LOL, I'm sure not! At the very least we can make an instructional video of you skipping and put it on you tube

LOL! When I signed up for this challenge I thought to myself - thank goodness at least no one had come up with a Hula Hoop challenge - then I saw Alexa's message. My youngest daughter has one and go the speed of light - I tried and failed miserably -- I think I saw a warning disclaimer on it that said if over 40 don't attempt

Re: February Jump Rope Challenge

My husband already laughs at my antics. I can just see it if I get a hula hoop. Heck, we can cancel cable; better entertainment can't be had on tv
