Skipping: An integral part of all boxing training, skipping is an excellent way to warm up if you are not running and also helps develop stamina, timing, co-ordination, breathing control and concentration. If you don't run in the afternoon then do thirty minutes of skipping, otherwise fifteen to twenty minutes after the run.
Vary your skipping by changing your footwork, moving to and fro, side to side, changing the speed (at the end of each minute do a 10 second burst of speed), crossing arms or lifting the knees high. Muay Thai boxers use a plastic tube rope, which is heavier than the traditional leather rope, but both are equally effective.
