Jumping rope is one of the most underrated types of exercise — and it may even be more effective than other forms of cardio. Most of your major muscle groups are working when you jump rope. Your body needs to burn more fuel to produce this energy, so it burns lots of calories. Jumping rope requires top-notch coordination, especially as you advance to more skilled moves, such as quickly swinging the rope twice within each jump. With your improved coordination from jumping rope, you'll be less likely to get hurt either during exercise or in day-to-day activities, Plus, jumping rope burns lots of calories, strengthens coordination and bone density, and can reduce your risk of injuries and heart disease.
