Lose weight fast with the skipping rope?
Small jumps, big effect: Jumping rope is a full-body workout that burns a lot of calories in just a short time. A rope is a simple but effective way of getting your body going – even in bad weather.
Jumping rope is a real miracle weapon against calories and for a great body feeling.
Many know it from childhood: the skipping rope. And indeed, it’s child’s play to hop over a swinging cord. This is precisely why “Seigenumpe” is also particularly suitable as a training variant for all healthy adults – regardless of whether they are new to sports, fitness fans or ambitious athletes.
Training with the skipping rope is good endurance training. Similar to jogging, regular exercise helps to lose weight. Depending on your age, gender and weight, you can burn 200 to 500 calories per 30 minutes.

A real calorie killer
Rope skipping is an excellent cardio workout that can also be used specifically when losing weight. In fact, an average-sized person can burn more than 10 calories per minute! In the form of HIIT training, the most fat can be burned while jumping. For example, you can jump through for 30 seconds without jumping in between. Rest for 60 seconds, then jump for another 30 seconds. And repeat the whole thing ten times.
Jumping with change of foot is also recommended. The shift in weight also tightens the core nicely. The number of calories you can lose by jumping rope depends on how much you weigh when you start. When you weigh more, it takes more energy to work against gravity and move your body, so heavier people burn more calories when they exercise. Don’t forget: Long-term success in losing weight is only possible if you change your diet as well. Read More…
