Episode 2938:

Ross Enamait highlights how adding movement to your jump rope sessions can drastically increase agility, coordination, and overall conditioning. By varying direction and intensity, you turn a simple tool into a dynamic workout that mimics real athletic demands while still keeping things fun, portable, and adaptable for all fitness levels.

Read along with the original article(s) here: http://rosstraining.com/blog/2015/10/enhance-your-jump-rope-workout-routine/

Quotes to ponder:

"Rather than perform a single turning style repeatedly, I’m constantly moving and varying the rope’s action."

"You can’t just haphazardly move while skipping. Instead, you must be conscious of the rope with each step that you take."

"Jumping rope is truly an exercise that you will never outgrow. You can always work harder, longer, or with new variations."
