Is jumping rope at home at noon considered disturbing the peace? My downstairs neighbor has reported me twice.

Question from a netizen:

I don't usually have much time to exercise, and with summer approaching, I'm worried about improving my figure. I saw online that skipping rope is the fastest way to lose weight, so I bought one. I originally planned to skip in the evening, but I was worried about disturbing my neighbors, so I skip at home during the day. However, my downstairs neighbor has called the police twice, saying my skipping rope is disturbing her. I want to ask, is it not allowed to skip rope in my own home? Why does my downstairs neighbor keep reporting me?

Netizen reply:

• Netizen 1 : ??? You were jumping rope at home at noon and you have the nerve to ask if it's disturbing the peace? ??? How confident are you in the soundproofing of modern buildings? ??? People have no right to report you. In my opinion, except for yoga, which can be done at home, all other exercises should be done downstairs. After all, everyone paid for their house, and everyone wants a good living environment. Nobody owes you anything, so why should they have to listen to your noisy exercise?
• Netizen 2 : The first time, I could say you were ignorant and didn't realize you were disturbing others' rest. But someone already reported you once, and instead of reflecting on your actions, you let them report you a second time. Reporting you twice is one thing, but you actually have the nerve to ask if it counts as disturbing the peace? What, if it doesn't, are you planning to keep jumping around?
• Netizen 3 : Of course it's a disturbance! Why wouldn't it? Unless you live in a detached villa, don't tell me it's your freedom. My upstairs neighbor is the kind who jumps rope at all hours of the day. I've told them several times, but it's no use. I'm thinking of calling the police. They jump in the morning, at noon, and at night. We've tried to talk to them, but they ignored us. And they're a teacher's family! What kind of manners do they have?! Don't they know how much they weigh?! The noise is deafening, and it vibrates. I'm starting to suspect the upstairs floor is going to collapse one day. I don't even want to think about 100+ jumps, let alone 1000+! That would kill me! They start jumping on weekend mornings while I'm resting and sleeping, and they even jump during their lunch break! They're crazy! A person weighing at least 50 kilograms repeatedly jumping in one place will crack the walls!! PS: If you can't reach an agreement, definitely call the police!! Otherwise, if it collapses, you'll lose your life!!
• Netizen 4: It's that kind of noise pollution where the downstairs neighbor complains, but not only does they not change it, they get even more aggressive. For example, if it's just piano noise, after you complain, they might add high heels, a soy milk maker, or a small hammer hitting medicine... and then argue with you. You can't stop people from drinking soy milk or taking their medicine, right? Just stop complaining. People like that only God can deal with them. If you encounter them, you're unlucky. I complained for two months, even going to the police station for mediation. This morning around 7 a.m., a hammer went off upstairs, I don't know what it was hitting, and it woke me up again... What can I say?
• Netizen 5: I don't know what you guys are thinking. No one lives downstairs, but I don't jump rope upstairs either. Firstly, my house is small, and secondly, my child is already 1.83 meters tall and weighs over 200 pounds, so I'm afraid he might collapse from jumping. But my child really needs exercise. In the past two years, he has lost 30 pounds by jumping rope, and all his fat has turned into solid muscles.
• Last year, due to the pandemic, my child's online class schedule was very tight, just like at school, from 6 am to 9:30 pm. During the long break, they would rush downstairs to jump rope for a few minutes, finish their homework, and by 11 pm, it was already past midnight after submitting, grading, and correcting their mistakes.
• This year, Shijiazhuang is having online classes again, and time is still so tight. We still manage to squeeze in time to go downstairs and jump rope.
• I think not constantly making noise is the least we can do to show respect to our neighbors. Maybe I'm just getting old and out of touch with the times, but I can't accept things like people jumping rope in the building, playing TikTok on the subway, or electric bikes making a racket in the street, and I won't do those things.
