Scissor Jump

1. Adjust the jump rope to a suitable length, ensuring it reaches your armpits when standing on the middle of the rope.
2. Start with the basic jump rope motion to establish a rhythm.
3. As you jump, extend one leg forward and the other backward in a scissor-like motion.
4. Quickly switch the positions of your legs in mid-air, bringing the opposite leg forward and the initial forward leg backward.
5. Continue using your wrists to rotate the jump rope, coordinating the scissor jump motion with the rotation.

1. Engage your core muscles to stabilize your torso during the scissor jump motion.
2. Keep your movements light and stay on the balls of your feet to reduce impact on your joints.
3. Ensure that your arm movement is coordinated with the scissor jump motion for a fluid and efficient workout.
4. Maintain proper posture by looking straight ahead, which helps with balance and form.

Easier

• If the scissor jump is challenging, perform regular jumps without the scissor motion or reduce the "width" of the scissor.
