WASHINGTON -- If you think keeping fit is merely mind over matter, Lester Clancy has an invention for you: a cordless jump-rope.

That's right, a jump-rope minus the rope. All that's left is two handles, so you jump over the pretend rope. Or if you are truly lazy, you can pretend to jump over the pretend rope.

And for that idea kicking around Clancy's head since 1988, the U.S. Patent Office this month awarded the 52-year-old Mansfield, Ohio, man a patent. Its number: 7037243.


Get the full story!

I'm on the waiting list. I'm gonna sit on my couch and pretend to jump my imaginary rope while watching television and eating chips.

Would buying a rope and taking out the handles be smarter? yes but its just an idea to get people moving. If your clumsy and wanna jump "rope" then yeah just hope up and down. Jumping rope can be quite hard for a lot of people.

Jumping rope is a good work out though. Especially if you start doing double unders and more tricks.
