Is it true that skipping is one of the best exercises you can do?Has anyone tried it - is it good for all over body toning or just cardiovascular? Also, how long should I do it for and how often? thanks.x
Actually I believe that moving house is the best form of exercise. I did it yesterday and excreted approximately 4 gallons of sweat. If you want to sustain a healthy lifestyle then I would suggest moving house twice a month. And preferably only move from flats which have at least 3 staircases for added excruciating pain.
The books/staircase could be the answer. For the ultimate keep-fit regime, why not skip up and down the stairs with books sellotaped to your ankles and arms to act as weights? :o)
skipping is a very good form of exercise - which is why boxers training routines are heavily based around the use of a skipping rope in the gym. Very hard on the knees though; start out with about 20 skips and build on from that about 3 times a week.
