Who doesn\u2019t like jumping rope? At the very least it makes you feel like a kid again. Plus, it\u2019s one of the fastest ways to burn calories, amp your metabolism, build endurance and train coordination.<\/p>\n
No worries if you have two left feet: With this Fitness Quest you\u2019ll work in shorter time increments that increase in duration as you move along.<\/p>\n
Every fifth day you\u2019ll have a Skip Goal to hit, where you see how many jumps you can do in a row. Obviously, your goal is to do them continuously, but if you trip up, just collect yourself, reset your rope and forge ahead. On your rest days, stretch and foam roll your calves and work on shoulder and wrist mobility.<\/p>\n

To earn this Badassery Badge, up-level your jumping to double-unders \u2014 where the rope passes underneath you two twice each time you jump.<\/p>\n These are way more taxing so cut your work time and Skip Goal numbers in half or even just to a quarter of the prescribed work to accommodate for the intensity.<\/p>\n |
