Is skipping rope good?

Rope skipping has existed as a sport for a long time. Many people regard it as a daily compulsory course. This is a very good habit. Rope skipping not only helps to improve our jumping ability, it can effectively enhance our own physical fitness. In addition, it can also achieve the purpose of weight loss. It can be said that it brings all-round effects to our body. Let us understand whether rope skipping is good or not.

The time and frequency of rope skipping, in theory, one hour before and after meals should not perform strenuous exercise, some people want to lose weight by skipping rope before meals in order to reduce appetite, which is unscientific. The best time for human activity is from 3 pm to 8 pm. Friends who want to improve their rope skipping skills may wish to do it during this period. Personally, I do not advocate morning exercises. Some people do morning exercises by "getting up at the crack of dawn" or even getting up at three or four o'clock to exercise, and then going back to sleep. This is not only susceptible to air pollution, but also disrupts the biological clock, leading to fatigue and premature aging. Because the air pollution on the ground is the most serious before sunrise and there is less oxygen at this time. After sunrise, green plants begin photosynthesis, inhaling carbon dioxide and exhaling oxygen, making the air fresh. So if you have time, you might as well do rope skipping after sunrise. Jumping rope should not be less than 4 times but not more than 6 times a week. Generally, it takes a day of rest and thinking, so that you can improve faster. Each time of skipping rope should be controlled between 30-100 minutes. Too little time will not have any fitness effect, and excessive training for more than two hours will also make the body extremely tired. 1. Goal: Jump 120 to 140 times per minute, the ideal heart rate is about 150 beats per minute, and burn 600 to 1000 calories in an hour (10 minutes of skipping rope is equivalent to 30 minutes of jogging). 2. Perfect fantasy: escape from the earth's gravity and say goodbye to excess fat. 3. Getting started: You don’t need a rope at the beginning. Play some cheerful music and jump on one leg alternately to the rhythm of the music while swaying your body from right to left. Be sure to bend your knees to cushion the impact. 4. Warm up: Start by jumping slowly for 30 seconds or just 30 times, then gradually extend the time until you can jump continuously for 3 minutes. When jumping rope, lift your knees as high as possible and keep your body flexible. As the rope swings, remember to keep your wrists away from your body. 5. Relaxation: After jumping 3 sets, rest for 1 minute. Then jump on one leg alternately, take a deep breath, and relax the muscles in your shoulders, arms, and legs. 6. Endurance: Continue for another minute, with or without the rope, lift your knees as high as possible, and take deep breaths in and out to increase your endurance. 7. Rope skipping: Try a set of rope skipping (cross your hands when the rope is above your head, and return to the original position when the rope is under your feet), then put your feet together and jump 3 times. Repeat this set of movements for 3 minutes. 8. Improvement: Start with a single jump, then double jump every other time. After mastering the essentials, jump sideways with your feet together, then jump on one leg, 60 times per minute.
