If you're looking to kick start your workout and get over that weight loss plateau, the answer is simple - jump rope. Yep, remember that simple rope with the two handles you couldn't put down when you were 9? Turns out, skipping rope is one of the best ways to get your heart pumping and your lungs and legs burning. Burning up to 750 calories an hour, this simple exercise works your legs, abs, arms, lungs, and heart. And a jump rope easily fits into a travel or gym bag, making it a simple way to exercise wherever you go. Turn up the music and channel your inner Rocky as you reach a whole new level of fit!
