If your state doesn't offer free e-file, you may find better choices this year outside of Free File. This year, for instance, TurboTax 's Federal Free Edition is offering it free, guided online tax prep service and e-filing for both federal and state returns, regardless of your income.
Calories Burned Jumping Rope. Calories burned jumping rope can work out to 15 to 20 calories per minute. The average person could burn 200 to 300 calories in a simple 15 minute jump rope workout. Not just for boxers or kids, rope jumping (skipping) can burn 25% more calories per minute than running.
Completing 600 jumps in your workout will not equate to 500 calories burned, so use the number of calories you burn per minute of jumping rope and adjust your workout time accordingly. If you weigh 200 pounds and jump rope at a rate of 70 jumps per minute, you will burn about 14.8 calories per minute.
