Jumping rope isn’t just for kids—it’s an enjoyable yet challenging way for adults to get a full-body cardio workout. In fact, a study conducted in 2013 found that college men who spent 10 minutes of jumping rope daily for six weeks improved their cardiovascular fitness just as much as college men who spent 30 minutes of jogging for the same time period. If you’ve jumped to the conclusion that 10 minutes sounds way better than 30, check out these three SmartRopes that will help you fit in some fun fitness that you can do almost anywhere.
