(Health-NewsWire.Net, January 27, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- Due to the valuable benefits of rope jumping, the prominent speed jump rope provider WOD Nation strongly recommends working on the rope at least 30 minutes daily.
"Rope jumping has been tested by experts and trainers alike. Now is the time to get started like everybody else. Beat out the flabs and stay healthy wherever and whenever you want – at home or in the gym. Surely, you will never go back to the old you ever again", assures Matthew Stanton, the company's CEO.
Jumping rope trainers, especially double under hopefuls, will have more reason to pursue exercise due to the multitude of benefits that jumping ropes bring. The benefits include stronger bones, and better balance and coordination. This has been derived from a recent study, wherein ten people were asked to jump rope using WOD Nation's Double Under Jump Rope. The required activity was non-stop; using the speed of 120 rpm five minutes daily. The Findings Based on test results, the use of jump rope equates the upshots of the following workouts: • 2 sessions of tennis (singles) • 30 minutes of intense jogging • 30 minutes of racquet playing • 700 yards of swimming • Acro jumping
As aforementioned, jumping on a rope can improve bone strength. In this study, it turns out that the combination and synchronization of movements make this possible. Among the areas that rope jumping influences are the calves, glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps.
The report also indicates improvement in balance and coordination from participants. These were achieved from rope jumping, which was done with right timing, concentration, consistency, and zero distraction. Apparently, the activity makes both sides of the brain work and thus, the brain stays active and focus is improved. Other Perks of Rope Jumping Apart from benefits previously mentioned, the study found out other positive effects from the training such as the following: • Aids in losing weight – Tests show skipping can shed up to 450 calories in a single 30-minute session. • Improves cardiovascular health – Skipping rope can make heart stronger and pump more blood, thus, faster delivery of nutrients and oxygen is promoted. • Tones muscles – Done regularly, an individual can have well-toned arms, shoulders, and legs while working on the rope. • Prevents osteoporosis – Rope jumping not only strengthens bones, it also boosts bone density; helping the body fight osteoporosis at an early stage. • Hastens recovery – Researchers have also tested rope jumping on recovering athletes, who have been previously injured from their respective sports. Apparently, the progressive method helps individuals get back in shape, while keeping impact to the minimum. For athletes with foot injuries, the activity supported the ligaments of knees, feet, and ankle during the testing phase. • Improves muscle strength and gripping skills – Rope skipping includes hundreds of wrist spins, tosses, and throws. These movements, in turn, draw muscles responsible for good motor skills in certain areas including hand, finger, and wrist. As a result, muscles get more power; specifically in the fingers where gripping takes place.
