SKIPPING is THAT skipping with the rope ?
I haven't done it since I was a child.
Wondering if I still can do

yes done with a rope....
I tried the other day....if anyone saw me they would be rolling about
My best effort so far is 22 before getting the rope between my feet.
Kids here can do sumersaults and all sorts whilst skipping and even have like two ropes and they on a third.-

Oh that's the point
I got exercise instead, walking.
do you say "walking" in English when you walk for the exercise?

That's right." I get exercise by walking" or "I am going out walking" or "I am going for a walk" are in the present tense and "I went walking" or "I walked" or "I went for a walk" are in the past tense. There are variations like "I walk to work" or "I get to work by walking", but that's the English language, full of variants. I hope this was useful.

There is a new sport with the children here in Great Britain... an age old game....SKIPPING!!!
Does not need expensive gym fees or time there...can be done anytime.
Get yourself a piece of rope and start learning
