Multiple components of fitness

Choosing movements and exercises that build multiple components of fitness simultaneously is one aspect of where the success lies for any training program. Running and jogging can be referred to as a "mindless" skill to perform, as in very easy to execute and doesn't require much agility and coordination. Jumping rope, however, requires focus, agility and coordination to successfully perform. We are then utilizing a greater stimulus to build higher levels of conditioning and various other equally important aspects of fitness.

Jump rope 2 minutes
Pull-ups x 15
