1000 skips

It's simple, so try it!

Take a skipping rope and complete 1000 skips.

Time yourself. See how you rank:

10+ minutes Good try! Chances are you're tripping over the rope still. Just keep practicing!

9-10 minutes Not bad! Your rest periods are probably just a little too long, but hey, you did it!

8-9 minutes Good job! Great coordination, and your rest periods weren't too long.

7-8 minutes You're GOOD. You're REAL good!

6-7 minutes Are your calves burning yet? That is a KILLER time!

6- minutes Well now you're just showing off! What's your secret???

I tend to lose count and get lost in thought instead when I do this drill. I mean, counting to 1000 is a feat of focus in itself! What I like to do is set up 4 objects (usually those little pink dumbbells are great for this) and count to 250 as I stare/focus on one at a time. Alternatively, you can place 10 objects in front of you and focus on each one for 100 revolutions. 

Happy sweaty skipping!
