Quarantine and confinement have adapted our sports routines to forced marches and now we comply with our sports sessions at home. And we are getting a taste for it! There are even those who, having more time, are motivating themselves a lot and have been encouraged to practice sports. They already say it, girls, there is no harm that does not come for good. And it is that sport is not only a matter of beauty, it also directly influences our energies and our state of mind . In this sense, celebrities and influencers have become our greatest inspiration , and now more than ever they are teaching us their tricks to train at home and be great, and, logically, we are copying them ALL.
Nieves Álvarez is one of our favorite 'celebs' homelands. The model is synonymous with style and elegance, but she is also great at 46 just turned 46 and, thanks to the quarantine, we know what is the favorite exercise with which she keeps calories under control and, on top, it has become for her in the closest thing to an elixir of youth . The best? It is available to anyone and we only need three things: a rope, ten minutes a day and motivation!
The model has shown on Instagram the absolute mastery of rope jumping, which is her favorite cardio exercise and which is also ideal to do at home, where functional exercises are easier than aerobics. Nieves Álvarez loves boxing and we already know that rope is one of the star exercises of this discipline. Just by seeing her we have gotten a lot of desire to start training NOW. In addition, she does it with style and a lot of sense of humor.
WHY TRAIN WITH COMBA AT HOME?
After seeing Nieves Álvarez we have started to investigate and we have freaked out when we read that 10 minutes of rope is equivalent to half an hour of running , with what can be an exercise to replace our races while the quarantine lasts, without a doubt, but there is more :
- Jumping rope we define legs and tone buttocks with very fast sport routines. Also the results are noticeable quite quickly.
- It favors the elimination of liquids.
- In addition to being a cardiovascular exercise, it improves the respiratory system and endurance.
- In addition to working the legs, this exercise, which must be done with the core activated, tones the abdomen and arms.
SIMPLE BUT INFALLIBLE TECHNIQUE
Although at first it can be a bit desperate, it is a very simple training and once you get into the rhythm, it is also very effective. As for the technique, it is very easy and you just have to take into account:
- We have to keep our backs straight, our shoulders relaxed and our movement focus on the wrist. To correct your posture there is a trick and that is to start practicing in front of a mirror.
- We must jump with the tip of the foot and legs slightly bent, and never more than necessary to minimize the impact. For this it is important to also wear footwear that cushions the jump .
- Combine jumps , for example faster and slower in series, and then jump with one leg and then another. The point is to have fun doing sports. Let yourself go.
OTHER ADVANTAGES
- We do not need much space and material we would only need a rope that we can get for very little money on Amazon, for example.
Amazon Jump Rope, € 17.99
- It's fun because it's about that game from our childhood that, in addition to working on a cardiovascular level and burning calories quickly, will free our minds due to the concentration it requires when we have to coordinate movements .
- In a few minutes we will not only comply with our sports routine, with all the benefits that this entails for health and beauty, but we will also have a good shot of endorphins and energy . Therefore, it is an ideal exercise to practice in the morning, even on an empty stomach. We will activate for the whole day.
- But, be careful, also at night. And it is very entertaining and releases tensions accumulated throughout the day with what we will promote sleep and sleep like a baby. We start tomorrow? Full!
