Rope jumping is one of the most fun ways to burn some major calories pretty quickly, but it can be difficult to incorporate it into your home workout. Jumping rope indoors isn’t easy, but it’s not impossible either, and here’s a couple of ways to get it done.

Rearranging Your Furniture

If you don’t have enough room in your apartment to do a rope jumping workout, how about moving some furniture around? This is a great way to burn some calories before even starting your workout and it can serve as an amazing warmup and cooldown.

Jump Rope Mat

Even if you find enough space to jump rope, this workout routine can be pretty noisy. If you don’t want to disturb your neighbors, consider investing some extra cash into a jump rope mat, which will also help you avoid putting too much stress on your feet.

Cordless Jump Rope

If your apartment is too tiny and crowded for rope jumping, cordless jump ropes are your best bet. They consist of two handles with internal weights that simulate the feeling of turning the rope. You’ll still be jumping as much as during the regular rope jumping workouts, and that’s the entire point of this fitness routine.
