Melt Fat Fast with Jump Rope Circuit Workout

Favoritable | April 12, 2014

Have you ever tried to use Jump Rope in your workouts on a regular basis? If the answer is no, then you have no idea what you’ve been missing out on. First of all, once you get the hang of it, which does not take a long time, it’s a lot of fun and it makes your training more lively and enjoyable. I use Jump Rope in my Cardio Shred and JRC workouts a lot and people love it. If you don’t believe me, then try this jump rope circuit workout right now!

 

 

There is second of all as well. Jump roping is a high intensity full body exercise in it’s nature. You can never compare regular high knees to high knees with jump rope. Even tho it’s exactly the same movement, the fact that jump roping requires so much agility, it’s only natural that your body has to utilize way more muscle groups in order complete the task. And guess what? The more muscles you engage during an exercise, the more calories and fat you’re burning. Jump roping is just overall one the most effective cardio workouts you can do and another great thing about it is that it doesn’t require a lot of time. You can literally have your cardio done in 10 minutes and be totally soaked in sweat and feel like you just ran a marathon. By the way, if you do want to run a marathon in a near future, you should consider high intensity interval training and jump rope to work on your endurance.

Here is the Jump Rope Workout Circuit breakdown:

1. High knees with Jump Rope – 1 minute

2. Sit up/butt lift x 3 into 3 push up and 1 jump up – repeat 10x

3. One leg jump with a jump rope for 30 seconds on each leg

4. Lean forward lunge into half pistol squat – 12 reps on each leg

5. Scissors with Jump Rope – 1 minute

6. Burpee with 4 plank leg lifts – 5 sets

 

Complete this circuit at least 3 times and make sure that you are pushing yourself hard enough to get the intensity up to a high level. The more you challenge yourself the more benefits you can expect so don’t be afraid to pick up the pace and train like a boss!

Best,

Zuzka

    Crap this was tough! I did this right after completing butt lift series w/o #2. I only managed 1 round of this workout, and it took me 13:37. Am totally pleaded that I was able to do all three jump rope combos! Oh and those sit-up butt lift combos are killer!

    3 Rounds took me 42 minutes and I had to modify greatly to get it done. I couldn’t do 30 sec single legs skips so I just did 10x R/L for 1:00. 2nd and 3rd rounds, I couldnt do all High Knees so sometimes did normal skips. This WO is definitely one I will go back to check my improvement. Thanks Zuzka!
