No doubt, jumping rope is one of the best calorie burning and cardio exercises you can do. So why don’t more people do it? Simple- it requires a level of coordination and fitness that most people don’t have. So when I came across JumpSnap over at Lift, I was intrigued. I actually think it would work for a lot of people and maybe get them to the point where they can jump a real rope. Really… anything to get people to do something! Kinda pricey at 60.00 but still, if it actually gets people to exercise, I’m all for it.

JumpSnap loses the rope, leaving two handles with electronic chips and an LCD screen that estimate calories burned, while providing a timer and audible workout summary. It even makes a snapping sound with each rotation so you don’t feel entirely silly…
In the world of high intensity, ultra-portable exercise, jumping rope has to be at the top of the list. You can burn up to 600 calories/hour and do it almost anywhere. Now with the JumpSnap, you don’t even need a tall ceiling. Still, if you can use a real rope, you won’t look so silly. If anyone buys one, please let me know how you like it and how well it works.
