"Jump-N-Pump"

Yeah, I know--you're thinking, "Jump-n-Pump? What the. . .?" That's what I thought too, when Dan and I were hanging out with Dan's cousin last weekend. The cousin, who by the way is 18, very athletic and perfectly fit, said he had just come from his "Jump-n-Pump" workout at the gym. I had a devilish impulse to be very mean (because what kind of guy actually admits to taking something called Jump-n-Pump classes?) but I behaved. ;) Apparently this strange-and-somewhat-fruity-sounding activity is the new aerobic exercise of choice for committed fitness freaks. As the name suggests, it's an aerobic routine involving a jump rope. Whatever it is, it must work pretty well.

*Angel is now thinking of investing in a jump rope.*
