I love to jump rope and agree it's a wonderful way to burn calories...but at work? On a coffee break? If you truly jump the way you should for 10 minutes, you will need a shower after each 10 minute "break"!!
It might also be tricky to find a corner in your office and jump rope in your office attire without attracting some strange looks, LOL. But if it works, hey why not?
can anyone help me? i want to lose 36 lbs in 60 days is that even possible?
I WAS AMAZED AT THIS JUMP ROPE IDEA! WOW!!
Jump Rope for 10 minutes straight. NOT A GOOD IDEA UNLESS YOU DONT SWEAT. NOONE WANTS TO WORK WITH A STINKY CO-WORKER!!
@Cheergirl1263 - that sounds dangerous. Slow and steady is the rule. If you go at it slowly you'll have a better chance of succeeding, and also have a better chance of keeping the weight off. Don't crash diet! Very bad for you.
