Week 3, Day 2 ✅

Did the thing, Week 3 Day 1! Usually around this time in a workout plan, I start getting bored and switch to something else. This last year I’ve been really trying to incorporate strength training into my schedule (usually just ran) because I’m getting older and it’s so important the older you get. But nothing really stuck. I’d get bored with it. So I never really made any progress because I couldn’t stay consistent. But I’m not bored yet with the jump rope and really hope I stick with it long enough to form a habit. Loving these workouts! They’re cardio and strength training. A perfect mix.

Sleigh the Scale challenge - half way done! Followed todays workout with 15 minutes of yoga just to stretch it out. Also, got my cross ropes yesterday and today was the first day using a weighted rope. Cross ropes are nice! Very smooth while jumping compared to my beaded rope, which I was using. #dothething

The JRD90 and JRD MAX were the two programs I was considering. My main goal is to stay consistent and build a healthy habit.

After the Sleigh the Scale Challenge, I want to start one of the programs at the beginning of January. Any advice on which one to start with?

Week 2 Day 4 done! My legs are ☠️. The back of my right knee feels a little sore and tight. Might need to take tomorrow off and give it some rest. Will see how I feel tomorrow.

Week 2 Day 2 done! Followed it up with 10 min of yoga to stretch out all the tightness. Props to everyone who can do so many double unders! Definitely something I’ll be working towards :).

Got through 2 rounds of day 6 when my 2 year old woke up early and I had to switch gears :). All good though. Still feeling like I’m sleighing it. Jumping rope is so much fun and these workouts are great!

How you explained it is how I decided to do it. Except I did 5 push ups, 10 high knees and then instead of stopping at 20 jumps, I just finished out the minute with jumping rope. I started out following Dan, but felt like I was getting a better workout with the more traditional EMOM. I can’t do pushups or high knees for a full minute and maintain good form lol. Something to work towards :)
