All of those answers are correct, whenever you do anything cardiovascular (jump rope, running, aerobics, kickboxing,) you'll burn fat, as your body will use the fat for fuel.  \n   Jump roping is great, as long as you have no problems with your knees, and I'm assuming that you don't, because it is the knees and your back that are taking the impact.  I'm assuming that your back is good too. \n Jumping rope works your whole body, if you're swinging the rope yourself, you're working your arms,shoulders,back, and chest.  The rest of your body kicks in automatically.

It has several benifits.  If you are attempting to lose weight it helps protect the muscle tissue from being burned for energy, so that you are more likely to lose weight by burning fat.  It also helps keep your muscles from getting sore after a hard workout.  In addition it has been shown to boost growth hormone.

Possibly not enough support?  Do you usually wear briefs or boxers?  Perhaps you should consider tight briefs when jumping rope. Your testicles are held in place by your scrotum and small tendons and ligaments.  These are easily damaged and can cause problems. You might toughen them up (the ligaments) by wearing boxers, it takes a while though.  Either that or go around naked for a while.

Alright, this is what I did.  For Thighs/Butt, running and jumping rope.  My run usually spands from about 20min-40min.  For Jumping rope I alternate about 2-4mins of jumping with 4-6mins of aerobic exercise (from lunges and all the things you see on video's to just dancing around) and squats.  I do this 2-3 times a week\n\nEveryday I do some amount of Yoga (either 20mins or an hour) This helps keep the muscle from just bulking up and makes your legs pretty lean.\n\nFor the stomach I have a set of about 13 different crunches that I do (20 reps each).  This I do 3 times a week.  On my off days I do Pilates which really works your whole center.\n\nThe key to all of this is consistancy.  If I get lazy for about 10 days I can tell.  Figure out what's best for you and stick with it

Hula hoop \nAlthough we might think using a hula hoop is slightly childish, it's incredibly good for you in so many ways. \n\nIt tones the waistline and arms, increases flexibility of the spine and muscles, releases toxins, helps digestion, reduces tiredness and relives anxiety which encourages a relaxed state of mind. A simple ten minute session can help you lose 100 calories! \n\nhttp://www.ntlworld.com/lifestyledating/fun_fitness.php?page_zone=125.5.4

For drops, Keep your weight back and your legs soft.  For jumps you need a little more timing, it can't really be taught.  You need to go out and hit a few.

Jumping rope is an awesome cardio workout. It will also help with strengthening you legs and calves. Also you can run and do sprints to build stamina and speed.\n\nAs for the lower abs, like the other person said you can do hanging leg/knee raises if you have access to a gym. Most gyms have that piece of equipment. If you can't, then you can do reverse crunches and bicycle crunches on the floor. Also you can do plain old leg lifts where you lift your legs up about 6 inches off the floor and hold them for a set amount of time.\n\nGood Luck

WARMING UP\n\nBefore starting the exercises, warm up your muscles. Stretch properly, and jog around for a few minutes.\n\nIf you have a jumprope, use it. Jumping rope definitely helps your conditioning.\n\nRunning up and down stairs for a while is very useful as a warmup, or a full exercise. Don't do too much or else you may wear our your legs. Use it as a quick warmup, or a full exercise.\n\nJUMPING EXERCISES\n\nDeep Knee Bends --- Be standing. Slowly bend at the knees while keeping your back straight. Slowly crouch down as low as possible (it shouldn't hurt) and slowly rise back up. Do this 15 times. Over time increase to 20, 30, etc.\n\nDeep Knee Bend Jumps --- Be standing. Crouch down as described above but fairly quickly, almost touching your bottom to the ground, then explode upwards as high as you can. The moment you land, immediately crouch and launch back up again. Do this 15 times, and when you can, increase to 20, 30, etc.\n\nToe Raises --- Stand regularly, then raise up onto the tips of your toes. Lower back down. Don't just rock up and down, do it slowly (not too slowly) but steadily. Repeat 30-50 times.\n\nToe-Raise with Weights --- If you have any sort of weights, holding/wearing them while doing these toe raises will help. Use small weights (a mere 5 or 10 pounds is fine) and work your way up.\n\nStomach Crunches --- We believe that sit-ups are bad for your back. Stomach crunches, where while lying on your back, using your ab muscles and keeping your back straight, you rise up just enough to lift your shoulders off the ground, are better. Do them often - perhaps for 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes at night.\n\nJumping Rope--- Jumping rope definitely helps your vertical leap. Jump rope while watching tv or something. Make it a habit.

Back in the day, i bought this program on how to reach a vertical leap of 12-48 inches higher..guaranteed. Here's what the first week looked like in the program.\n\nJump as fast as you can..basically bouncing on ur toes for 1 minute straight.\n\nJump as hard as you can..and as high as you can 20 times.\n\nDo lunges 30 reps\n\nThen on the 8th week, it looked like this..bounce on ur toes for 10 minutes straight as fast as you can\n\nJump as hard as you can 200times! 40 reps in sets of 5.\n\n300 Lunges..10 sets of 30.\n\nI made it up to the 8th week! But the program was 12weeks.\n\nI did add a foot and a half to my vertical leap. Before I could grab the middle of the net..now i can dunk! n im only 5'10.\n\nDo lots of Jumping excercises..power excercises..such as powerful jumping like i explained. n increase every week or two. ur muscles get used to that, and it teaches ur muscles what muscles to use for when you want to jump high.\n\nIt worked for me, just do lots of Jumping excercises. The power will come from your thighs/hamstring/butt/and calves.

A great way to increase jumping ability is to lift. Squats and calf raises are the best for jumping. Start out slow and work for power. Once you get that down, work on speed. Do the same lifts, only faster. This helps your leg muscles to work more quickly. You don't want to work on jumping as much because it weakens your legs. Do more with weights to work out your legs and become more powerful. A great magazine to check out is called Stack. It can answer many of your athletic questions.
