Answers:
Actually jump roping is very easy on your knee joints!. You land and explode on the balls of your feet allowing for your calves to absorb the impact rather than your knees!. Whereas, with running you land on your heels which can be brutal on your knees!.

I've used jump rope as my main cardio for the past 4 yrs, and I've yet to have any major pains in my knees or ankles!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would say yes due to the amount of pressure put on knee and ankles from the jumping!. maybe take a couple of days off and give it a rest, then give it a try again and see if it happens!. maybe a motrin before you start your jumping may help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
