Benefits of Jumping Rope

Not the simple jump ropes: at Lacertosus® we present the best of the best, the latest evolution of the jump rope; but before we take a closer look at these fantastic fitness products, let's review the benefits of rope jumping together. It is a famous and  complete exercise, that allows you to put your whole body under stress and to tone a great number of muscles. Excellent exercise for the heart, skipping rope promotes muscle endurance, as well as vascular and respiratory endurance. Besides... let's face it, it's pretty damn fun - and at the end you are really exhausted, as we like it! In the upper part, the jump rope involves chest, arms and shoulders, all muscles involved in the fast rotation of the rope; the obligatory position of this exercise allows you to also work your abs, going to sculpt the waistline without even realizing it. Of course the leg muscles also work a lot, going to sculpt the calves that contract at each passage of the rope under our feet! The jump rope is also a tool that dramatically increases our agility, as well as our coordination, our balance and our posture giving us a great awareness of our body. It is no coincidence that this is one of the classic exercises for wrestlers (Stallone and Rocky, in this sense, have made school). You don't feel like running through the park, maybe because it's raining or it's cold? It is not a good excuse to stay still: know that a half hour of skipping rope done well - but with peace of mind - allows you to burn the same calories that you would burn while jogging.

To correctly perform the exercises with the rope it is necessary to carefully adjust the length of the latter, position yourself correctly, make short jumps and often alternate the exercise, not to get bored.
