I did a bit of research regarding jump roping - I was relieved to see how we need to work up to 3 minutes. I totally dislike jump ing rope but I do want to get up to 3 minutes. Guess it is a pride thing. BUT my knees are killing me.

Those new to jump roping should plan to master the skill of jumping rope first, before thinking of it as a conditioning tool. A beginner can start with short jump rope sessions several times each week, working up to jumping for 3-5 minutes three times a week. A boxer uses a jump rope as a tool for conditioning and a boxing round is 3 minutes, so 3 minute rounds are something good to strive for.
As the body gets conditioned a workout might look like this:
1. Jump Rope for 3 minutes
2. Rest for 60 seconds
3. Complete 5 rounds

Jump roping was much harder than I thought it would be and it's a good workout too. I bet your calves were very sore all weekend long. You worked hard and it was a fun morning to be together.
You're doing great and it's fun to share ideas throughout this challenge.
