Hi, Thanks for using HCM..
i understand your concern..There is no problem with rope skipping and walking in the threadmill. There is no harm as long as you are not pregnant. From the month you are trying to conceive, it is better to avoid heavy exercises. But walking and upper body exercises can be continued. There is no proven clinical evidence to support early trimester abortion due to heavy exercises.. hope i have answered ur queries.. Good day..
