Jump rope workout, as widely known, is an economical and high-efficient method for lose weight and keep slim. If you haven't picked up a jump rope since fourth-grade gym class, it's time for a skip down memory lane. Burn 135 calories in just 10 minutes with this jump rope workout. You'll also sculpt your shoulders, chest, arms, and legs.
