Jumping Jacks
Step 5
Add a plastic handle to each end of the jump rope. You can buy handles at craft stores, or you can cut a 4 to 5 inch piece of 1/2 inch PVC pipe. You can also buy weighted handles from a sporting goods store, which will make turning the rope feel heavier, so you get a more challenging workout for your upper body. Secure each end with a strong knot.
