What are the benefits of skipping rope for primary school students?
Skipping rope is an aerobic exercise that takes less time and consumes more energy. Studies abroad show that skipping rope 10 minutes of exercise is almost the same as jogging for 30 minutes or doing aerobics for 20 minutes. And skipping rope also has its unique benefits for children:

A skipping rope can exercise waist, legs, ankles, hands, wrists, arms and other parts of the body, making the whole body muscles stronger.

B. Skipping rope can speed up the whole body blood circulation and enhance the cardiopulmonary function. At the same time, when skipping rope, holding the rope will stimulate the thumb points, which can greatly enhance the vitality of brain cells and is conducive to the healthy development of children.

C. Children jump their own numbers when skipping rope, which helps to connect abstract numbers with reality, and at the same time makes their cerebral cortex in an excited state, which helps to enhance children's memory.

D. When skipping rope, the movements are left and right, and the movements are consistent from top to bottom. There are many ways, such as crossing arms, jumping with two legs apart, jumping with one knee bent, jumping sideways, jumping with one foot, etc., which is helpful for the balanced and coordinated development of children's left and right hemispheres and can also cultivate their sense of rhythm.

E. There are many ways for children to jump rope, such as single jump, double jump and multi-person jump, which help children to form an accurate sense of orientation and a collective concept of cooperation with others.

It is also important to teach children the correct skipping posture. For example, tell children that when taking off and landing, the forefoot should land first, because if the foot follows the ground, there will be some hidden dangers in the long run, such as brain, ankle and spine may be damaged to varying degrees. At the same time, children should be told to bend their knees slightly when landing to cushion the impact of ankles, knees, spine and head.

Parents should pay attention to the fact that children's bones are in the period of growth and development, and their own buffering ability is relatively poor. Too strong and too long impact will have a bad effect on bones. Therefore, we should pay attention to the choice of ground, skipping rope should be carried out on soft and elastic ground such as land and grass. If there is no condition, you can only jump rope on the concrete floor, then the skipping time must be short and pay attention to rest.

Only by doing the above can the benefits of skipping rope be fully reflected, otherwise it will be counterproductive.
