Jump Rope/Speed Rope

[stella]

What's the difference between them, and which is best for losing weight?

Basically the same, jump rope as far as I’m aware is just a name for "skipping" and a speed rope is a light weight basic skipping rope.

I prefer speed ropes to the old style turn rope or weighted ropes, due to the fact you can get more intensity from them, easier to uses, skip quicker etc.

Diet manipulation is the only way to lose weight mate, need a deficit of calories in to calories out

For CV fitness though rope sessions are good but I usually only use them as part of a circuit as a session based just on ropes would bore me to tears
