Can I borrow this thread?

I'm more or less same with threadstarter and dont have much tme for exercise as well. I planned to do some 1 hour of rod skipping a day to help me burn some calories. Anything more than that is beyond my body take. Will rod skipping help? I dont have time to go gym or jogging or anything of sorts. Pls give some comments. And what about drinking chinese tea? does it help as well?
