The length of time you spend jumping rope daily depends on your goals. If you want to lose weight or build cardiovascular endurance, you should jump in a particular fashion for a certain amount of time. This will be different from how much you should jump to build calf strength or maintain basic physical fitness.
Children play dozens of jump rope games that improve coordination, build cardiovascular endurance and simply pass the time. For effective adult exercise, the basic jump is best. Stand on the balls of your feet and spin the rope over your head and under your body. According to Health Status, a 175-pound person burns about 400 calories in 30 minutes of jumping rope.
If you want to jump rope to lose weight, length of time will depend on how many pounds you want to drop. Find out how many calories you burn in 30 minutes of jumping rope -- you'll burn more if you're heavier. Divide 3,500 --- the number of calories in a pound -- by that number to find out how much rope you need to jump to lose 1 pound. Work out your training schedule using those numbers, and take into account other weight-loss efforts like a low-calorie diet.
CARDIOVASCULAR EXERCISE
Jumping rope will directly increase your heart rate and help improve your cardiovascular health. According to personal trainer Bill Phillips, 30 to 40 minutes of moderate cardio per day will help improve your general cardiovascular conditioning. If you're training for a specific sporting event -- such as a boxing match -- you should jump rope to help you meet the cardio requirements of that event. For example, training for a nine-minute boxing match would require at least a nine-minute session of vigorous rope jumping.
MAINTENANCE
Dr. Mehmet Oz, author of "You: The Owner's Manual," recommends 20 minutes per day of moderate cardio to maintain proper health. Jumping rope is as effective choice. If your primary goal is maintaining your current level of conditioning, you should jump rope for about 20 minutes a day.
IMPACT
Jumping up and down can be hard on the ankles, knees, hips and feet, especially if you're overweight. If any of those joints begin to hurt, you should stop jumping rope and consult your doctor. Muscle soreness is all right and to be expected, but joint pain may indicate that your rope-jumping workout is hurting your body.

sit ups everyday
throw up to get skinnny
Really depends on your physical status.
That's just stupid, how the fuck is he going too have muscle mass if hes so fucking skinny. If he wants muscle mass he has too bulk up first, in other words OP has no fucking idea what hes talking about and just wants abs so he can brag about it too his friends.
Look, you're not going to get anywhere if you're just going to be like "I hate doing this shit". Life is like that. You wanna do the fun things first, but then it'll bite you back when you realize it's too late to do the things you gotta do.
You wanna lose weight. Alright cool. What's the point of losing weight if you, yourself firstly, don't even wanna try doing anything. You gotta do the things you hate. You gotta learn eventually. Learning this will help you out in life. If you were truly motivated to lose weight, you would.

If you just want to do fat burning cardio, focus on long durations of jumping rope, not at full tilt the whole time, but burst your energy.
You seriously sound like a fucking idiot right there. I was telling him TO BULK SOME MUSCLE first, and THEN DO CARDIO. It's PROVEN that the more muscle you have, the more fat is burned during cardio. It doesn't matter if he wants to brag or not, EVEN IF YOUR SKINNY YOU CAN STILL GAIN MUSCLE. Fucking idiot.Originally Posted by noob555
Too bad abs are tiny.
Why do you want abs?
They're useful for protecting your organs.
You wanna show them off tubby?
Body mass != abs.
Yes but it's covered by fat.
You need to work off fat first...
Are you retarded?
