Yes, skipping, or jump rope exercise, can help reduce waist size.
According to research, jump rope exercise is a full-body aerobic activity that elevates heart rate, respiration rate, and body temperature. This type of exercise can be effective in reducing abdominal fat and waist circumference, ultimately promoting overall weight loss (30-Aug-2024).
In essence:
-
Skipping burns calories: Because it's a full-body workout, skipping burns a significant number of calories, helping to create the calorie deficit needed for weight loss.
-
Targets abdominal fat: Aerobic exercise, like skipping, has been shown to be effective at reducing abdominal fat, which contributes to a smaller waist size.
Therefore, incorporating skipping into a regular exercise routine can be a valuable tool for reducing waist size.
