Is jump rope a good way to lose weight?
Apart from helping you burn calories (about 200 calories per 15 minutes at moderate speed), jumping is also good for the heart and can give you a full-body workout without hurting your knees and ankles too much.

About Burn Calories
Everything we do burns calories. Our modern sedentary lives combined with high-fat high-sugar diets, have contributed to a situation in which most people take in more calories than they burn, resulting in obesity.
About Calories
The food we eat and beverages we drink all contain calories, which is a measure of energy. Another definition of calorie is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of water by one degree. It's recommended that humans consume at least 2,000 calories per day in order to maintain their weight and for enough energy to perform daily tasks.
