Skipping - the low cost cardio solution

There are a number of health and physiological benefits derived from skipping and these include increasing stamina; improving responsiveness, coordination and reaction time; toning a range of muscle groups and improving balance.

Skipping is one of the most efficient methods of cardio training. Skipping for 10 minutes at a moderate pace burns the equivalent calories as jogging one mile in 12 minutes, cycling two miles in six minutes, swimming a quarter mile in 12 minutes, playing two sets of tennis or playing an 18-hole round of golf.

The RopeSport Kit comes complete with DVD workout, high-energy music CD and adjustable length 4-in-1 weighted speed rope. Join the world’s greatest jump roper, Louis Garcia as he teaches ‘Free Style Jump Roping’, the fat blasting, cardio-conditioning workout that’s taking the hottest gyms in the USA by storm.

The secret is Louis Garcia’s revolutionary teaching technique (resting moves and step-by-step breakdown) and sequencing of fun and easy moves that tone your lower and upper body while burning fat.

GoFit is one of the leading retail fitness brands in America and is now being distributed by PowerBlock Fitness Ltd in the UK and throughout Europe. In addition to the skipping ranges, there are resistance, core stability and sports performance products, each including professional education programmes by some of the world’s leading personal trainers and sports coaches. All products are professionally packaged for retail design and come with either a workout DVD or comprehensive exercise manual.
