The Exercise That Kills Your Cravings
The next time you feel a craving coming on, grab a jump rope. Skipping rope can help suppress hunger, according to new research from Japan.
Men who jumped rope for three 10-minute sets showed greater suppression of their appetites than those who burned a similar number of calories cycling. What's more, the effect lasted for 15 minutes after exercise.
One theory: The jumping motion may create more fatigue and muscle discomfort than a non-weight-bearing exercising like cycling does, and that discomfort can tamp down your desire for food.
Want to master the exercise and get in prizefighter shape? Follow these tips to jump rope like a champ.
