Side to Side Jumps with Jump Rope

Here’s how to do side to side jumps with a jump rope:

• Stand with your feet slightly apart while holding a jump rope behind you
• Jump side to side continuously while jumping over the rope
• Start off with short jumps, then progress onto longer jumps.

Practice these first, then go ahead and do today’s workout.
