    my favorite instructor at my gym does both. Last week she had us jump rope for 60 seconds. My heart rate was soaring.

    I do six sets of 20 jumping ropes. The most I can do without stopping is usually 60. What kind of challenge do you want???
    I have a jump rope routine I found on fitness mag webpage thats about 8 minutes.

    just do a time challenge, see how many jump ropes you can do before you can't do anymore in a time set then someone will try and break it. I will do mine right now.

    I don't think I counted properly, but I was really out of breath!!!

    5 minutes=315 jump ropes

    Everytime I touched my feet to the ground I counted one. I also did some jump rope jacks/. I am going to go for another few minutes but not count. Anyone wanna beat my 5 for 315!

    I'd love too, but will pass this time. I just bought myself a jump rope for Christmas and tried it out yesterday, not anywhere as easy I remember it from when I was little:blushing: It's going to take lots of practice before I get the hang of it again.
