Jumping rope offers numerous benefits, including cardiovascular exercise, improved coordination, increased stamina, and enhanced bone density.
Jumping rope can be done in various ways, including single jumps, double (jumping over two rope rotations in a single jump), and different footwork variations. There are different types of skipping ropes, including speed ropes (thin and light for fast jumping), and heavier ropes for strength training or special jumps.
Skipping ropes typically consist of a flexible rope, often made of cord, wire, or thin vinyl. Handles are each end, used for exercise and being swung underfoot and overhead.
