Workout #1 - Aerobic Development

 Jump Rope - an old school conditioning tool that still works wonders.  Spin a rope around a few days each week.  Get the rhythm down first and then play around with some variables like single leg, side to side hops, fwd/bck, circling, alternating feet, crossovers, etc.

• Week 1: 10 minutes
• Week 2: 12 minutes
• Week 3: 16 minutes
• Week 4:  20 minutes

Workout #2 - Improve Work Capacity

 Neverending Rope Pulls - This is another gem from John Brookfield.  You can use a 50' or 100' rope.  Longer will provide more resistance, but its up to you and what you have available.  Simply wrap the rope around a post and pull.  Once you get to the end of the rope, re-wrap it and continue.  The more times you wrap the rope, the more resistance you will have during your pull.

Various types of pulls:  Seated, over your shoulder, Sideways pulling across your body, Facing forward pulling thru your legs, lying on your side, plank positions, etc.

• Week 1: 1/4 mile (13 lengths of 100' rope)
• Week 2: 1/2 mile (26 lengths of 100' rope)
• Week 3: 3/4 mile (39 lengths of 100' rope)
• Week 4: 1 mile (53 lengths of 100' rope)
