Jumping Away Your Jiggle

Well summer is almost here and everyone knows what that means.....BATHING SUIT season! So this is the time that everyone hits up the gym and starts dieting to have that perfect bathing suit body. But if you're like me, you feel that gym memberships are waaaay too much money these days!

So in an effort to get in shape, I try to find activities that are fun and wont hurt my pockets. Because honestly, at least if its fun you'll be more willing to do it consistently and be able to buy the cutest bathing suits of the season.

The newest activity I'm going to try is jump roping. Yes I said it, jumping rope. Now I've seen lots of people use this to get in shape but never really thought to try it myself. I mean when I was a kid I was the queen bee of double dutch (couldn't no one touch me!) so I figure if I enjoyed it back then and I'll enjoy it now. Plus I read that its a great way to tone and strengthen the muscles without getting big muscles. Which is good if your only concerned with toning your muscles!

I have tried this one before. It works in the long run and is great as a training for trips to the mountains. Will have to pick it up again!

I carry a jumprope in my travel bag...sadly it's growing a thin film of dust. Gonna whip it out, because gotta get it together for the summer! Can't wait to read your Jumprope Update.
