Our coach's advice (2/2)
Over the course of your workouts, increase your work time and reduce your recovery time.
It's better to maintain intensity in your exercise intervals, so choose longer recovery times for maximum intensity.
To make the circuit more complex, you can add running between your skipping.
Our coach's circuit training (1/2)
Perform 4 to 6 skips with 1 to 2 minutes recovery time at the end of each skip:
- For beginners: 20 seconds exercise, 40 seconds recovery
- For intermediates: 30 seconds - 30 seconds
- For the more experienced:40 seconds - 20 seconds
After completing exercise 1, continue with the second exercise after recovering, and so on:
- DU skipping rope
- dumbbell snatch right arm
- DU skipping rope
- dumbbell snatch left arm
How do you adjust your skipping rope properly?
To use the pro skipping rope properly, place your feet in the mid-point and raise it until it reaches your shoulders. The handles of the rope should be level with your armpits. Adjust the length and firmly tighten the two screws using a screwdriver.
