This challenge is for hula-hooping AND/OR jump rope - you don't have to do both! Pick one and join us, or go for both. If you meet your goals there is an award for your signature.
Want to be insanely fit? Try jump rope (or skipping as you may know it as)! Skipping is great for your cardio fitness - if you don't believe me try and skip for 5 mins straight. It can be fun too and if you're a bit advanced you can do all kinds of tricks.
Hula is great to do, and easy to fit into your life - you can do it in front of the TV and it can be toning.
If you fancy trying either of these consider joining this challenge for some less traditional, and very fun, exercise.
In this challenge you can do hula-hooping and/or jumping rope. Your goal is set by you - just state the number of minutes you wish to do in both activities (or only one) in the list.
You don't have to do both if you don't want to!
NB skipping can be tough on the knees, especially if you still have a lot of weight to lose, so please be careful to wear good quality trainers to minimize impact, try a softer surface and stop if it hurts!
NB Hula hooping can be tough on your dignity. Please only attempt it with a silly grin on your face.
How to sign up:
1) Copy and paste your name onto the list in the post below this one.
2) State your MONTHLY jump rope minute goal like this: JR 5/20
3) State your MONTHLY hula-hooping minute goal like this: HH 5/20
4) Report as often as you like by updating the ENTIRE list
Who is with me for joyous July?

I skip as part of kickboxing and I need to get up to 20 solid minutes. Yikes-a-roo. I'm going to take it easy at first, just 3 min stints the first week, then go for fives, and build up to tens etc.
