30 day jump rope challenge!

amysteri · August 2016

Hi everyone

amysteri · August 2016

The goal is to jump rope for every day for 30 days. You can jump rope for 10 minutes or 20 minutes a day. The whole point is to GET UP and GET MOVING!

Increase your stamina and hopefully lose some weight along the way.

If you're up for the challenge record your initial weight and on the last day see how much you've lost and how much your stamina has improved :-) Good Luck!

kiwizombi · August 2016

Can I pretend to hold a jump rope? I dont have one.

amysteri · August 2016

Welcome to the challenge Jibeirish and Kiwizombi!

Kiwizombi, ye you can pretend to jump rope, they actually sell ropeless jump ropes these days - you can hold 2 pcs of hairbrushes or markers in each hand as you jump to make it feel like you have a jump rope!

The 30 DAY Jump Rope Challenge Calendar link is below so you all can edit it so feel free to log in your minutes of jump roping for the day... seeing everyone's progress will get you motivated to not miss a day of jumping!

@amysteri we could try mix it up a bit by throwing in little challenges the odd day like doing high knees while skipping or jumping from side to side while skipping, keep it interesting

Alright jump right in @toniiaa28 and add your name and time to the 30 Day Jump Rope Challenge Calendar below

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MD7hel4x_QGtqcGUjRDUYDGdJ68QxZMGuAUQTiX65qg/edit?usp=sharing

Jumping 20 mins per day for 30 days = 600 mins for a calendar month!
According to MyFitnessPals Calculator 600 mins of jump rope (moderate) burns 5897 calories

All we need to do is keep on jumping!

toniiaa28 · August 2016

I'd love to join this one too! Was thinking about doing some jump rope and this would be a perfect way to start! Thanks for creating this!

Why Jump Rope?

I had some granola bars and a lot of water after my jump rope - it's warm outside for a workout!

What healthy snacks do you all eat after a workout?

amysteri · August 2016

Another jumping day down!
Keep on jumping everyone

spenelli93 · August 2016

I'm in!!

amysteri · August 2016

@spenelli93 sounds great! add your name and jump rope times to the calendar https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MD7hel4x_QGtqcGUjRDUYDGdJ68QxZMGuAUQTiX65qg/edit?usp=sharing

It's editable for everyone doing the challenge so we can keep track of our progress!

And If you cant do a full 20mins of jumping you can always do it in sessions of 5 or 10 mins throughout the day

Mandisa58 · August 2016

Sorry, I have to bow out.

30 day jump rope challenge!
