Opinions On Jumping Rope

[TheIronGame63]

What do you guys think about using Jump Rope as a form of cardio just to break up the cycle of running and walking. I've read a few articles that have said you could to do intervals of jumping rope similar to HIIT and have the same results. Any opinions are welcomed.
