  yes, skipping helps, both in losing fat and improving your cardiovascular capability, provided you do it at a moderate pace and for at least 30 mins.

  If you want any "pills", I would only advise taking green tea extract, or drink more green tea.

  If skipping is effective, how come you don't see more people doing it? Fitness centres would be out of business.

  people are convinced that big bad machines can help you achieve that dream body sculpture you are dreaming of.. what can a meer rope do to help? screw the ropes!

  but then, it won't be as fun

  In my opinion, the main motive for training, other than asthetics, should be for functional purposes. Skipping trains your hand-eye coordination
