working out after baby – TKO Soft-Grip Jump Rope

Let’s face it, after you have a baby your body just isn’t the same -at least mine isn’t. And for me it’s been tough finding time to workout with a new baby -she’s not really a baby anymore, but it’s still difficult. There is no way I have time to go to the gym, I don’t know how other moms do it -I really don’t. And when Hazel is taking a nap I’ve got laundry to do, and other house chores, and mostly I just want to relax. So the moral to this story is, I need a workout that’s at home and something that’s quick. 

I’ve found that a workout rope is really a great way to get a quick workout in even if you only have fifteen minutes. There are so many advantages to working out with a TKO jump rope, I love the variety it adds to my workout, I can jump anywhere, anytime, it’s a workout for my whole body, and I can adjust jumping to my speed depending on how intense of a workout I want. 

It’s also a plus that it has a soft grip and and nine foot rope length -if that’s too long you can easily wrap it around the grip. It’s nice to be able to mix up my workout with this jump rope and in fifteen minutes I can easily burn 170 calories. 

Also, Hazel really seems to get a kick out of it, or maybe she is just laughing at me? Either way, it’s also really great entertainment. Haha!
