Question from Lainie Arbesfeld: Does anyone have any information on Jumpsnap? I have been seeing it in a lot of magazines and recently I have been getting emails about it. It looks pretty cool, but I would like to make sure it works before I purchase it. The following is the link to it: http://jumpsnap.com/index2.html
Answer from Douglas Van Dalinda: Hi Lainie, I haven't actually used a Jumpsnap but if it is going to get you working out and you can afford it do it. You are probably better off with a real jump rope as far as building coordination. I wouldn't just use that as a workout routine. You need to mix it up and work in different movements and with different types of resistance. It can be good to use to get started and to incorporate into a well rounded routine. Good luck - Stay healthy!
