The first ingredients for effective jump rope workouts are a decent skipping rope and some space. Next is to know what kind of workout you need to see significant results. While intensity and progressive consistency is needed to get the fat burn you need, the jump rope is an effective and fun way to get and stay in shape.

To help you get started with your jumping rope workouts, have a look at the benefits and the sample workout in this article.

I remember when I used to play jump ropes as a kid. It was a fun way to play with friends or alone. I didn’t realize then that it can be used as a form of cardio workout. I was quite a noob when I was young but now mastering some jump rope skills is a priority and a new way to look at cardio.


Advantages of Jump Rope Workouts

The skipping rope may look like some simple workout equipment without any benefits. But don’t be fooled. The jumping rope has lots of benefits. Let’s have a look at a few:

  • You can do such workouts anywhere, which is a good thing if you travel a lot or stay at home.
  • It’s a great, inexpensive workout tool. If you are a beginner, you can start right away.
  • A jumping rope helps you to burn a lot of calories and fat if you do it strategically.
  • You can also easily incorporate a jump rope to go with all your other workouts for variety. Add a few jumping rope workouts in-between your weights to burn more fat. And include jumping rope with your other cardio exercises to torch even more calories.
