Go for an easy pace for 20 to 30 minutes, two to three times per week.

It’s an incredible cardio exercise that’s also easy on your joints.

The instant your posture or technique breaks down, the rope will stop automatically.

Grab a jump rope, and do 15 total minutes while taking necessary breaks in between.

As you improve, you’re free to increase the duration and speed, or try harder variations.

They even have various weights, thicknesses, and lengths so you find something perfect for you.

Do 10 rounds of 30 seconds of intense battle ropes with 30-second breaks.

Try a 30 to 40-minute elliptical session two to three times a week.

That’s where sled pulls help.

They build strong quads and endurance, which can improve knee health.

Use a heavy enough weight so that you have to march slowly backward.
