Description: Dec 19: Jump Rope Challenge

Do the warm up first. 

Complete all the sets of each exercise before moving on to the next. 

Rest 30 seconds between sets. 

Finish with the cool down.

Do this warm up before all workouts. 

Take your time and breathe through each movement. 

Complete 1 set of each exercise, then move on to the workout.

Dynamic Warm Up Flow (5 reps/side)

Tempo: 1012
1. Get in the pushup position with your hands directly below your shoulders, keep your legs straight, and tighten up your core.
2. While in the pushup position, lunge forward by bending your knee, and landing your foot just outside your hand.
3. Return to the starting position and repeat that same movement with the opposite leg.

Spiderman Lunge (5 reps/side)

20 seconds/side
1. Sit your butt down on the form roller and place your hand behind you to hold your body up.
2. Cross your leg over your knee and lean your body towards your hip to put pressure on that glute.
3. Use your arm to slowly move your body forward and backward over the foam roller to release the knots in your piriformis.
4. Switch sides and repeat.

Foam Roller Piriformis (Glutes) Massage (30 sec/side)

Warm Up

1. Hold the ends of the jump rope in each hand.
2. With your feet shoulder width apart, slightly bend your knees, and raise one knee high while the rope goes under your foot.
3. On the next revolution of the rope, raise the other knee as if you were running in place.
4. Repeat.

High Knees Jump Rope

1. Hold the ends of the jump rope in each hand.
2. With your feet hip-width apart, slightly bend your knees, and push the balls of your feet through the ground to jump up, point your toes to the ground, and with your hands by your waist, quickly rotate your wrists to make small circles to revolve the rope around your body.
3. Land softly on your toes, and quickly push off again from the balls of your feet. The idea is to jump over the rope as quickly as possible with a slight hop. Don’t think of jumping as high as you can, think about bouncing on the balls of your feet.
4. To make it harder, do double unders. This is when the rope revolves under your feet twice within one jump. Once again, the idea is not to just jump higher, the speed comes from the quick rotation of your wrists.

Speed Jump Rope

1. Hold the ends of the jump rope in each hand.
2. With your feet hip-width apart, slightly bend your knees, and push the balls of your feet through the ground to jump up, point your toes to the ground, and with your hands by your waist quickly rotate your wrists to make small circles to revolve the rope under your feet twice within one jump.
3. Land softly on your toes, and quickly push off again from the balls of your feet.
4. Once again, the idea is not to just jump higher, the speed of the double under comes from the quick rotation of your wrists.

Double Unders Jump Rope

1. Hold the ends of the jump rope in each hand.
2. With your feet together, slightly bend your knees, and push the balls of your feet through the ground to jump up and with your hands by your waist quickly rotate your wrists to make small circles to revolve the rope.
3. As the rope goes under your feet, jump and land with your feet spread wide apart like you would if you were doing a jumping jack.
4. On the next jump, land with your feet together.
5. Repeat.

Jumping Jacks Jump Rope

Tempo: 10X0
1. With your feet shoulder width apart, drive your hips back to generate power, followed by bending your knees, and explode up by jumping as high as you can.
2. It’s very important to cushion your joints by landing softly.
3. To do this, as you land, you immediately repeat the same steps to start the lowering of the jump phase. Hips drive back, knees bend, and repeat.

Jump Cardio

At the end of the workout, complete the cool down in circuit format for 1 set. 

Take your time and stretch any other muscles that may feel tight.

1. Lie down on your back, bend your knees and plant your feet into the ground, with your arms down by your sides and palms facing the floor.
2. Bring one knee up to your chest and grab the outside of your knee with the opposite hand.
3. Pull your knee towards your opposite shoulder while keeping your head, back, and shoulders flat against the floor.
4. Hold for approximately 20 seconds, then lower your foot back to the ground.
5. Repeat the same movement with the opposite leg.

Lying Crossover Stretch (30 sec/leg)

1. Lie face down on the ground, with your quadriceps on top of the foam roller.
2. Cross one ankle over the other to provide more pressure on the quadricep.
3. Use your arms to slowly move your body forward and backward over the foam roller from your hip to your knee to hit all areas of the quadriceps.
4. If you roll over a particular spot that feels extra tight and tender, hold it on that spot for 5-10 seconds to try and work it out.
5. Cross the opposite ankle over the other ankle and repeat on the other quadricep.

Foam Roller Quadriceps Massage (30 sec/leg)

1. Sit on the ground with your legs extended and hands behind you to support your body.
2. Place the foam roller underneath your calves while crossing one leg over top of the other.
3. Use your arms to slowly move your calves forward and backward over the foam roller.
4. If you roll over a particular spot that feels extra tight and tender, hold it on that spot for 5-10 seconds to try and work it out.
5. Switch legs and repeat.

Foam Roller Calf Massage (30 sec/leg)

1. Get down on your hands and knees with your feet against a wall or couch. Keeping one knee on the floor, lift the opposite foot and slide it up the wall (or the front of the couch) until the top of your foot and shin is flat against the wall. Step forward with the opposite leg so you foot is directly below your knee.
2. Lift your torso up so it’s inline with your quad on the back leg. Squeeze your glutes and contract your hamstrings by trying to pull your heel to your butt.
3. Set the timer, hold, and repeat with the other leg.
