How to Lose Weight Fast by Skipping

If your goal is to achieve a weight loss of 1 pound (0.45 kg) per week, you have to create a calorie deficit of 3500 calories per week. Make a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day to burn 3500 calories per week. At the same time keep a track of your diet. If you want to lose weight, eat less calories than you burn.

1 pound=3500 calories

1 pound weight loss per week=500 calorie deficit per day

This can be easily achieved by skipping (jumping rope).

BENEFITS OF JUMPING ROPE: Benefits of jumping rope are numerous: Burns major calories at a fast rate, helps shed extra fat from stomach area, improves cardiovascular health, tone your muscles, improves bone density, improves body coordination, and improves breathing efficiency and stamina.

According to What’s Cooking America, if you jump at a rate of 70 times per minute, you can estimate the number of calories you burn per minute by multiplying your body weight by .074.

Let us have a look with different weight slabs:

If your weight is 160 pounds (72 kg), you have to jump rope at a rate of 70 times per minute, number of calories you burn per minute is 160*0.074=11.84 calories per minute. For burning 500 calories a day, you should do skipping for 43 minutes (11.84*43=509 calories).

If your weight is 170 pounds (77 kg), you have to jump rope at a rate of 70 times per minute, number of calories you burn per minute is 170*0.074=12.58 calories per minute. For burning 500 calories a day you should do skipping for 40 minutes (12.58*40=503 calories).

If your weight is 180 pounds (81 kg), you have to jump rope at a rate of 70 times per minute, number of calories you burn per minute is 180*0.074=13.32 calories per minute. For burning 500 calories a day you should do skipping for 38 minutes (13.32*38=506 calories).

If your weight is 190 pounds (86 kg), you have to jump rope at a rate of 70 times per minute, number of calories you burn per minute is 190*0.074=14.06 calories per minute. For burning 500 calories a day you should do skipping for 36 minutes (14.06*36=506 calories).

If your weight is 200 pounds (90 kg), you have to jump at a rate of 70 times per minute, number of calories you burn per minute is 200*0.074=14.8 calories per minute. For burning 500 calories a day you should do skipping for 34 minutes (14.8*34=503 calories).

You can calculate as per your weight how many minutes you need to jump rope to burn 500 calories using this formula.

If you are a beginner start gradually by adding 5 minutes each day to reach your goal of minutes to burn 500 calories per day in order to lose 1 pound per week.
