My 50+ fitness jump rope journey. Day 2. 54 years old and determined to master this if it kills me!

I’m on day 2 of my jump rope journey, to see if I can tone up and build core strength through skipping/jump rope. Skipping (as we call it in the UK) was my major pastime at home and in the playground/school yard. Nothing as posh as a proper jump rope, just a length of green rope left over from my father’s water-ski line. I was going to make this video really short, however, I don’t want to make this challenge look easier than it is, because it’s bloody tough! I see young women bouncing all over social media with their jump ropes, like they came out of the womb clutching the jump rope handles, but at 54, it’s pushing me outside of my comfort and fitness zone, not to mention trying my patience and giving my heart a much needed work out. Head to my blog fiftysister.com/blog for information on the ropes I’m using and an idea to help with pelvic floor incidents.

I’m committed to this challenge for 30 days, then I will assess whether I want to continue for another 11 months. It will be interesting to see what I can achieve as a woman in my mid fifties, who hasn’t skipped since maybe the age of 12. I’m not trying to lose weight, I’m determined to tone up and increase my level of fitness, which has diminished slightly since moving to Portugal. I am already thinking about how I can keep going in the heat of summer – I may need to move indoors to stay cool. I will worry about that if I make it that far. Stay tuned in for my jump rope journey. If I can do it, anyone can. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a beautiful day.
