For a quick and intense cardio workout that also works your arms and legs, grab a jump rope, a wall ball, and a pair of dumbbells. It's one of those workouts that looks easy on paper, but because there's no rest at all, it's hard as hell!
Although it's just three exercises, if you keep moving, you'll be huffing and puffing after just a few minutes. But keep pushing through - you got this! Choose dumbbell and wall-ball weights that allow you to move through your reps without stopping, suggested Jade Jenny, head CrossFit coach and owner of Champlain Valley CrossFit. I used an eight-pound wall ball and 15-pound dumbbells, and that was plenty heavy!
If you're new to jumping rope, feel free to stick to single-unders. But if you've been jumping rope for a while, you can do double-unders instead - just do 30 instead of 50.
