Is skipping rope good for ADHD?

Rope skipping is a very common form of exercise. Some people want to treat children's ADHD through this form of exercise. Is this feasible? First of all, ADHD is mainly related to the diet of children, mainly the amino acid content in the diet, so it is better to start with the diet to treat ADHD. Another important point is that children who are active do not necessarily have ADHD. The specific situation still needs to be checked in the hospital.

In the first phase of the study, 32 ADHD children aged 8-12 were recruited to test the correlation between their motor ability and impulse control ability. In the second phase, 28 ADHD children aged 8-12 were recruited. Through brain wave experiments, it was proved that ADHD children with better physical fitness had brain waves closer to normal children. In the third phase of the study, 27 ADHD children aged 8-12 were recruited to imitate various animals in the water for 8 consecutive weeks, twice a week, 90 minutes each time, to train the children's coordination and balance abilities. After 8 weeks, the results of the retest showed that the control ability of the children tested had increased by an average of 9%.

Research results show that long-term exercise can significantly change hyperactive children. If you have hyperactive children at home, you can integrate exercise into their daily lives. Rope skipping is an excellent choice because it is easy to operate and can stimulate the concentration of children's hands, eyes, and feet. After exercising every day, children's concentration will be significantly improved.

There are many benefits for children to skip rope

As the saying goes: Life lies in exercise, and skipping rope can be said to be a very convenient sport. A rope and a small open space can make life colorful. Skipping rope is very beneficial to children's physical and mental health and intellectual development.

Rope skipping can promote the balanced development of children's bodies, help speed up gastrointestinal motility and blood circulation, promote the body's metabolism, and benefit children's healthy growth. Moreover, the feet, which are called the "second heart", are full of blood vessels, veins, acupuncture points, and nerves. These parts are constantly stimulated during jumping, which also has certain health benefits.

Although skipping rope is not the main method to treat ADHD, it can actually help a little. You should know that exercise can help improve children's behavior. For example, skipping rope can help coordinate the body and brain, and the coordination of the body is also very good, so skipping rope can help improve it.
