When starting to jump rope, the muscle groups will coordinate smoothly: the calves create force, the thighs and core muscles maintain balance, while the arms and shoulders control the rope. Thanks to this combination, the body moves comprehensively and effectively.
Jumping rope helps strengthen the calves better than regular aerobic exercises. When increasing speed or intensity, not only the calves but also the thigh muscles, arms, shoulders and forearms are maximized.
Regarding fat burning ability, jumping rope is one of the most effective sports. For example, a person weighing 70 kg can burn about 400 calories in just 30 minutes of jumping rope quickly, equivalent to or higher than running at the same time. In particular, this exercise also creates an EPOC effect - meaning that after exercising, the body continues to consume energy for another 2-3 hours.
In addition, 10 minutes of jumping rope is equivalent to 30 minutes of running. This is a time-saving solution, suitable for busy people. Not only good for the heart and lungs, jumping rope also helps strengthen bones, protect the brain, promote growth hormone secretion, fight oxidation and support the self-cleansing process of cells.
