Starting to skip involves focusing on proper form and technique to ensure a smooth and effective workout.
Here's a breakdown of how to start skipping correctly:
- Foot Placement and Jumping: Keep your feet close together and jump on the midsoles of your feet, landing softly, according to Crossrope.
- Jump Height: Only jump ½” to 1” off the ground.
- Posture: Maintain good posture by keeping your knees slightly bent and maintaining a tall, neutral spine, Crossrope suggests.
- Head and Chest: Keep your head and chest up, looking forward, per Crossrope.
