As Sports Medicine Specialist, I’m very well-versed in the countless exercises and training protocols that can be used to help people become fitter, stronger, faster and healthier. And truth be told, there are certain workouts that I particularly love and highly recommend when it comes to helping everyday people achieve weight loss success in a shorter period of time. Case in point, jumping rope – an incredible, no-gym-required, do-it-anywhere workout that can easily torch mega calories. In fact, according to the American Heart Association, a 160 lb. adult jumping rope at a moderate pace can burn 12 calories a minute, and clients of mine have been able to easily shed 1-2 pounds a week with my jump rope workouts!
Now in addition to being a great calorie burner, jumping rope is also a fantastic full-body workout that beautifully sculpts your shoulders, chest, arms, legs and abs.
Last but not least, jumping rope is a very safe, low-impact workout, which means it won’t be hard on your knees and lower joints.
In fact, jumping rope is just so all-together awesome that I personally use it to stay in shape year-round.
