Is jump rope good for mood swings during perimenopause?

Jump rope can be helpful for managing mood swings during perimenopause. Exercise influences hormone levels, neurotransmitter balance, inflammation, and sleep quality, all of which play a role in mood swings.

The key with jump rope for mood swings is matching the intensity to your current state. On days when mood swings is more severe, a gentler approach to jump rope may be more beneficial than pushing hard. On better days, you can increase the challenge.

Jump rope specifically may help with mood swings through improved circulation, endorphin release, stress hormone regulation, and the natural anti-inflammatory effects of movement. Consistency matters more than intensity. Regular jump rope, even at lower intensity, tends to produce better results for mood swings than occasional intense sessions.
