Fitness Journal – Alternative Work Out

I just found an alternative to jumping rope that I can do inside.  It likely can’t be used as a regular replacement but it’s going to be much better than doing nothing but push ups, sit ups and squats.  It’s very similar to jumping jacks only I don’t wave my arms up and down as I have no room to do that.  Instead, I move the legs in and out while working my arms in a running movement (forward and back).

I’ll need to be careful to not twist my ankle.  I came close to doing that twice due to the uneven nature of the floor at the spot that I tried this.

The   codes are curtesy of WordPress.com’s very sluggish response over the last few days. I was typing this entry by hand and had it nearly finished before the blog site finally responded.  Hah.
