Jump Rope — Basic Bounce
by Jace
Raises your breathing rate and trains rhythm and ankle springiness in the space of one floor tile.
How to do it
- Turn the rope with your wrists — elbows stay close to your ribs.
- Hop a centimetre or two off the floor and land through the ball of the foot, heel brushing down, knees soft.
- Eyes forward, ribs stacked over hips.
- Pick a floor with some give rather than bare concrete, and end the set once the landings turn heavy or loud.
