      Jumping rope to lose weight is suitable for white-collar workers

      Jumping rope was once considered Child movement. However, the British Rope Skipping Association stated that rope skipping is also a simple aerobic exercise that is very suitable for white-collar workers.

      “Many white-collar workers sit in offices for long periods of time, which may lead to hunched posture and reduced heart function. In addition, due to abnormal health, joint activity slows down, metabolism slows down, and calorie consumption becomes smaller, thus accumulating fat. ”The association says skipping rope can promote body agility, posture, balance, coordination and flexibility.

      10 minutes of skipping is equivalent to 30 minutes of jogging

      Through research, researchers from the British Rope Skipping Association found that in terms of amount of exercise, skipping rope for 10 minutes consumes about the same amount of energy as jogging for 30 minutes or doing fitness dancing for 20 minutes. Now many celebrities in the UK have joined the skipping team. The British Rope Skipping Association recommends skipping 3 to 4 times a week for no less than 10 minutes each time.

      It is reported that James Morrison, a newcomer to the British music scene, has organized a rope skipping team with his friends and insists on skipping rope to music every day.
