There are so many exercises available to do that we often get confused about which one to do. But if you still don't practice any physical activity and want to start, it's always recommended to start slowly and choose an activity that gives you pleasure.
This is because it is very common for people to start an activity and, after some time, end up putting it aside. A very simple and inexpensive activity that still reminds many of their childhood is jump rope. But is this exercise? Yea! And it is possible to lose calories and lose weight.
A complete physical activity
Some people even claimed that jumping 15 minutes of rope is equivalent to an hour of walking. But don't be fooled by these claims. Jumping rope has many benefits, but like all other exercises, there are no miracles and you have to put everything into practice.
Some professionals indicate doing an intervention, that is, jumping rope and also walking or squatting. Which means that you must have an interspersed workout so that you can lose weight. Just jumping rope without intensity will be just another game. So, if your focus is to lose weight, intensify your training, make alternations and talk to a professional to give you safe tips.
Another key tip is to do it with intensity and often, because toning and strengthening will only come if there is constant practice. It alone may not only be responsible for losing weight, but it can be an alternative along with yet another exercise. In addition to being a joke, it has many benefits.
