Range 32–200 kg.
5–600 minutes of rope turning—exclude long breaks unless they are part of your logged block.
Continuous turns at a sustainable aerobic pace
Estimate
233 kcal
MET 10 · Moderate / steady skipping · 20 min · 70 kg
Same MET × kg × hours convention as our calories burned calculator. Outdoor heat, mat vs concrete, and rope length change feel and economy.
Moderate steady skip
10 MET — Moderate / steady skipping
Faster wrist turns and fewer trips usually land in higher MET bands.
Duration
5–600 min window
Log minutes the rope was moving; long idle chat between rounds lowers true average intensity.
Units
lb or kg
Heavier athletes typically burn more kcal per minute at the same MET and time.
Mixed sessions
Session average MET
If doubles were only part of the workout, your average may sit between moderate and double-under bands.
Load vs RPM
Pick weighted band
Slower turns with a heavy rope can still cost significant energy—use the weighted-rope option.
Weekly plan
Pair with TDEE
Use TDEE and calorie calculators so jump-rope work fits your overall intake.
At 70 kg, 20 minutes, and moderate steady skipping (10 MET), estimated burn is about 233 kcal. Adjust weight, minutes, and band in the tool.
Inputs
70 kg · 20 min · moderate
Estimate
~233 kcal
We combine body weight, active skipping minutes, and a MET band for your rope speed and style. Calories follow MET × weight (kg) × duration (hours), matching our calories burned calculator and other cardio tools.
Calories (kcal) ≈ MET × weight (kg) × time (hours)MET values group many rope speeds into a few bands; skill and coordination still change your true cost.
Use consistent logging when comparing two jump-rope weeks.
MET bands summarize rope skipping into intensity categories used in exercise science references. They will not capture every footwork drill or CrossFit chipper perfectly—choose the band that reflects your average effort.
Align intake with TDEE and daily calorie targets.
