The jump rope is a cardio exercise that mainly targets the calves and coordination.
Hold the handles at hip height, elbows close to your body. Adjust the rope: standing on it, the handles should reach just under your armpits.
Turn the rope with your wrists and jump just high enough to let it pass, landing on the balls of your feet.
Small jumps, soft knees. Your wrists turn the rope, not your arms.
