Same. My favorite is the simple jumping rope. Never used one at the gym and simply forgot how much fun it is. (Can't use it in the living room though).

You can jump rope without the rope. I do this because I don't have much space in my garage for a rope to sling around, so I just pretend to hold the handles and skip rope that way.

Not as fun though. Using the rope adds challenge and builds/reinforces coordination among all four (usually) limbs

Jumping rope also works out the arms a little which you're not gonna get.

I get a pretty good burn by rotating my arms like I'm skipping a real rope. It's good enough for post work out cardio.
