Don’t have a lot of room for running? The all-versatile Jump Rope is my go-to piece of equipment for cardio when space is limited but sweat is not.
This workout is made up of just 8 exercises. The catch is that campers must Jump Rope in between each exercise.
Remind boot campers to go at their own pace and take breaks when needed. During strength exercises form over speed should be emphasized.
If completed all the way through, that’s a total of 1200 Skips!
