the heavier you are the more calories you burn....thats why really fat people lose like a stone in a week...a 210lb person jumping rope for 15 minutes would burn 239lbs....skipping at a nice pace

jump rope actually helps loose body fat and finally see the abs which the fat makes impossible to see, especially the lower section.it takes forever to get running only first two or three days. after a week you should be able to jump for at least a minute. count 2 single jumps for 1 second. that's how you get your 20 minutes.avoid jumping on your bare feet, it'll kill them )

hmm, I'm 6'1" 275lbs and I've been doing an exercise/diet for a week now, I have to do 20 mins of cardio a few times a week, do you think rope jumping would be a good thing to do? I'm not good exerting myself in public so running is out.

it doesn't mean your abs gonna grow or form. It's only something like warm-up not really exercise

I've been jumping for 7 or 8 years and trust me, you feel like you just did a full ab workout. You have to maintain posture, which involves intense tightening of the abs. Also, cardio increases your metabolism, which will burn stomach fat faster than any crunch/sit up routine will.For advanced users, put small ankle/wrist weights one to burn a good 1 1/2 times the calories and build muscles.

youll notice it when you jump because whether you realize it or not your actully getting a full body workout, usually when i jump rope my arms give in before my legs

anything thats not concrete. and ur shoes should have padding under the souls of the feet. some running shoes have that but most dont. i suggest getting basketball shoes.

when ur jumping with a jump rope u need to keep balance and to do so u automatically tighten ur abdomen. trust me my abs have burned every time i jump rope.

You utilize your abs in jump roping because your core stabilizes your entire body to get you into the air. Which is why jump roping helps to develop good balance, among others. |
