touwtje springen.

[Reggy]

he,

ik ben gek op touwtje springen ik doe dat dan ook 5 tot 7 min. vol uit voor mijn workout als warming up.
Nu was ik benieuwd wat er allemaal bekend is over het effect van touwtje springen en of het goed is als warming up of dat ik het beter kan gebruiken als cardio workout (b.v. op een rust dag en dan een 1/2 uur)
Ik heb het ook al gezocht op google en hier tussen de forums maar ik kan niet goed vinden wat ik wil weten.
Hoop dat jullie mij meer kunnen vertellen.

Thanx.

Hyperformance Jump Rope is performed in short bursts and at high
intensity rope speeds of 200 RPM (revolutions per minute) plus. It
targets the athlete's anaerobic energy system (85% - 95% of the Maximum Heart Rate) and focuses on developing the fast twitch
muscle fibers.

Hyperformance Jump Rope produces competitive advantages in
speed, quickness, agility, balance, coordination, explosiveness, leg,
knee, ankle and foot strength.

Hyperformance jump rope is also an excellent conditioner and warm
up. It is a total body activity that incorporates all the muscles and
quickly warms them before stretching, while helping to prevent
injuries.

Jogging 30 min.
Handball 20 min.

Jumping Rope as Exercise
Jumping rope is an activity that is not only for competition or recreation, but for a cardiovascular workout, just like jogging or bicycle riding. By doing this aerobic exercise one can burn up to 1300 calories after one hour of rigorous activity. Ten minutes of jumping rope is roughly the equivalent of running an 8-minute mile. Jumping rope is much easier on one's knee joints than jogging, since the impact of each jump or step is absorbed by both legs. Jumping rope is also good for the arms and results in the strengthening of the shoulders. This combination of an aerobic workout with the footwork involved with it makes jumping rope a popular form of exercise for athletes, especially boxers and wrestlers.
