The gymnastic jump rope is a polypropylene cord with a diameter of 12mm, without any handles. A very soft, flexible rope is perfect for sports events and outdoor activities. This type of rope is used in rhythmic gymnastics, but they can also be used successfully for fitness classes and in the training process of other sports.
Jumping rope not only allows you to lose extra pounds while playing, it develops endurance, strengthens the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, trains the leg muscles and a dozen other large and small muscles. As for burning weight, jumping rope is more effective than cycling, tennis and swimming. An ordinary person weighing about 70 kg spends up to 720 calories per hour of exercise (at a speed of 120-140 jumps per minute). However, despite its simplicity, it is a fairly serious load on the body. Jumping rope is simple. And it's fun. It's just a shame that as we get older we forget about it.
