Can anybody tell me whether I should go by the amount of skips done or try and go by the time endured? (e.g try and skip for a couple of minutes instead of counting 250 skips)

And could anybody tell me if skipping works any other parts of the body apart from the legs?

I would say go by time and exertion. Mostly skipping works your legs, but you could get your arms going with it, and focus on controlling things with your core...

Go by time and the muscle of the body who works the most is your heart!
