Don’t Feel Like Walking? Skip It!

Many songs in the slow walk range (85–100 BPM, approx.) can be transformed from a meander into a skip, which is not only loads of embarrassing fun, but burns more calories. I usually don’t skip for the entire song, but often I’ll burst into skip mode for a verse or a refrain or a tasty guitar solo. I call these SKIPLEKS. Songs in my woglists that can be skipped along to have the symbol SKBL in the comment field.

This week’s Weekly Wog consists entirely of skiplekkable songs: I, Skipper! I don’t recommend skipping to the entire list—I tried that and wound up with a sore groin muscle.

There’s even an entire website devoted to skipping—check out Skipper Kim at iskip.com.
