  • What are your simular thougts on Jumping Jacks vs Running vs Skipping Rope??

  • Jumping rope and working the heavybag=greatest workout ever. lost 20 lbs. in 6 weeks.

  • @SpeedinHawk it depends on how fast you can swing the rope. with proper form, jump roping is like running with proper form, it doesn't take much energy and you can skip as long as you want. adding new tricks once you get more accustomed to the rope adds a little more variety to keep the exercise fresh so you have something to challenge yourself with

  • Watched this a few hours ago.. Im back to ask if basically you're saying like if I jump rope for 5 mins, I will burn more fat (Will I be burning more energy or more fat? Otherwise is this by any chance an afterburn workout, jumping rope?) than when I run at a fast pace for 5 mins? Answers will be appreciated :)

  • @pandaweige

    bounce on your toes.

    make sure the rope is not too long or short, do it in an spacy area.

    what i like to do is to keep my hands slightly above my waist and around shoulder length apart.

    like make little loops with your hands to maintain the speed of the rope.

    i dont know, im not a trainer, i just used to box. matter of fact, look up "floyd mayweather skipping rope"

    actually what i heard was:

    Vera has an Olympic penis

  • @MixSociety

  • @tom01555

    if youre a boxer it is... :D

    but seriously... some believe it will make youre hand/arms stronger lol no pun intended

    watch some Roy Jones Jr. highlights and look at how fast he can throw his hooks.
