Monday
Jump Rope
500 total skips
In the beginning, focus on achieving the total number of skips even if you can only get a few skips at a time. As you get better at skipping, break your skips into small sections. If you think you can get 100 skips at a time without needing a break, try 5x100 skips. If can only do 50 skips, try 10x50. Try to extend the number each time. You can do more than 500 skips if you want more of a challenge.
