Skipping

mattyj1085 · 23 Jul 2008 at 20:52

For a get fit quick scheme and to keep busy I have started skipping. Does anyone have any training videos or tips? So far I can skip normally (jump with both feet together) and knee ups or whatever they are called.

Have only really found this one video

I used to have a rope. It collected dust over time.

If you do a quick search in Youtube for "boxing skipping" without the quotation marks you should find quite a few but try skipping on one foot only and alternating. Here is one with a lady going through a pretty quick routine that you might pick up some tips from although she isn't doing it as boxing training.

The Rocky III training montage has some hardcore skipping.
