Here's the complete breakdown for 1000 skips:

Time Required for 1000 Jumps

At different intensities:

• Light pace (~80 jumps/min): ~12.5 minutes
• Moderate pace (~120 jumps/min): ~8.3 minutes
• Vigorous pace (~140 jumps/min): ~7.1 minutes

How the Calculation Works

The formula accounts for your weight and intensity:

Step 1: Time = 1000 ÷ jumps per minute Step 2: Calories = (MET x weight_kg x 3.5 / 200) x time

Example for 70 kg person at moderate pace:

• Time: 1000 ÷ 120 = 8.33 minutes
• Calories: (10.0 x 70 x 3.5 / 200) x 8.33 = 102 kcal
