skipping rope

[happyhusky]

hi,
im new to all this,
im a really keen walker but just wondering would skipping be a good way to help lose weight and how long per day should i do it??

Fair play to anyone who can skip, I think it is physically impossible. Have heard it is very good exercise though.

I do rope skipping, it's fun but I find it quite hard lol.. (remembering childhood and how easy it was...........not so anymore!) I don't know how long the exercise should last, but I only do as long as I can and that won't take long lol

If you go on youtube and type in jump rope work out there's videos on there. I do a 10 minute one that includes different jumps. You do 30 seconds skipping then 30 seconds marching on the spot x
