Jump to health: rope skipping study aims to strengthen Kids' hearts and lungs
NCT ID NCT07249671
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether rope skipping can improve heart and lung fitness in children aged 6 to 12. About 178 kids will be split into two groups: one doing regular gym class and the other doing 50 minutes of rope skipping three times a week for 8 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in endurance and breathing to see if skipping rope is a fun and effective way to boost kids' health.
