Skipping rope is an intense sport. Be sure to prepare for all parts of your body before practice, such as shoulders, arms, wrists and ankles. When you start to practice skipping, you should go from slow to fast, from easy to difficult. At first, the exercise time is 5- 10 minutes, and then gradually increase to 10- 15 minutes. You can have a rest in the middle and then jump. The time for skipping rope is generally unlimited. As long as you avoid causing discomfort, be careful not to jump rope within half an hour before and after meals.
The effect of skipping rope on knees is only 1/7 to 1/2 of running. And as long as you can master the skills of skipping rope and land on the ground with the front end of your sole, you can reduce the impact on your body. Skipping rope can not only enhance your heart and lung function, as well as the muscles of major parts of your body, but also train your sense of balance and agility. The most attractive thing is that as long as the speed of 120- 140 times per minute can be guaranteed, 600- 1000 calories can be burned in one hour.
