  • Exceeded my goal of 50 jumps on my jump rope! Made it to 68 tonight! That's still not even a minute of straight jumping, but it's more than quadruple my previous "high score!" Had to adjust the length of the rope and find a nice surface to jump on. Next goal is 100, and after that I'll go by minutes. When I get to 5 min,…

  • This may be super lame, but I did 15 consecutive jumps with my new jump rope! It's not as easy as I remember and my rope was definitely too long, but I'll call it a success! 🎉😂 My next short-term goal is 50 without stopping/tripping up

Shane and Coach PJ with fightTIPS have some great drills for hand eye coordination using tennis balls. They also have some flexibility stuff for MMA high kicks. I just bought a jump rope and…

  • I'm starting again, too! My doctor mentioned I gained some weight since last she saw me. I was pretty embarrassed, but I'm ready to start again! I'm looking to lose 15-20 pounds and keep it off for a year! Add me!

  • Lol, I believe that! And I'm not ready for it, maybe in 10 years or so. After I find someone to like enough to even think about a permanent relationship with. Thanks!

  • It takes me a much shorter time to walk the same distance with my dog now! Lol but now we need longer walks. Last time I noticed this happen was when I was walking an hour both ways to school in -17°F. Got it to 45 min by the end if the semester.
