    all great advice. but even with good rhythmic mechanics you're not gonna go long without rhythmic breathing as well. one of the biggest things that'll gas you out during double unders and is worth mentioning.

    Cole, I’ve been attempting to do double unders for several months with some minimal improvement. I tried using a Rogue speed rope and then progressed to a quarter pound rope. I finally was able to do double unders consistently on every other jump, then you crushed my world by saying that leads to poor timing. 😢Finally give it another whirl by using your “jump, spin, spin” technique and voilà. Unbroken 25 double unders using a quarter pound rope for the first time in my life- multiple times. And I’m 40!!!! You’re the man. 👍🏾Thanks much. Now HSPUs.....🙄

    I’ve been really working on my DU in the last couple weeks and definitely was exhibiting some of those common errors in my practice. Yesterday I was finally able to string 10 DU when I could previously only do about 2. Doesn’t seem like a lot but it’s a huge step for me and they are exhausting to boot.

    I learned by listening to my feet, listening to my rope, and adjusting my timing based on how fast I was jumping and how fast I was spinning my rope. I remember when I was learning, sometimes the music in the gym was too loud and I'd lose the sounds and trip. Great video!

    This is so weird to me. You'd think it would be such a simple concept to understand, but instead, I'm having so much trouble getting it. What I think will really help me next time I try it was watching you perform the "jump, spin, spin". I'm confident I will get it next time I try it.

    • @ColeSager
      @ColeSager  5 років тому +2

      That’s a great question! - remember how I say in the video that the rhythm stays the same no matter the speed of your DUs. “Jump, Spin, Spin” never changes. SOOOO... about every 10-15 DUs I will take a couple bigger jumps and slow my rope speed down a little, allowing me to grab a deep breath in the air. Then I will settle back into a faster pace.
      I think at this point though, I would take a big deep breath before starting your DU attempt, exhale all the air, and then stay calm and relaxed, breathing naturally, and see how many you can do.

    Cole, you are a lifesaver! I just did 10 double unders in a row, instead of 4 or 5 max, using your tips. Still, my legs / calves are tired pretty quick after that. Guess I jump a bit too high, still.
    Ow, it also seems you use a bit more elbow every first spin, might that be correct? For single unders I just use my wrists, but for doubles I kept losing the position of my rope. Somehow, using a bit more elbow every first spin actually helps to keep the rope at the right speed.... Still a long way to go

    • @ColeSager
      @ColeSager  4 роки тому +1

      Erik, that is great observation! I do use a tad more elbow on the first spin, then for the second spin rely on my wrists to keep the momentum of the rope up. Keep working on it! Glad to hear you are improving, friend!

    I feel like I’m getting close but I feel like my wrist doesn’t go fast. Lol I can only do the single then double.

    great video :) New sub...I haven't checked out your other videos yet but your genuine personality and helpfulness sold me. I am NOT smooth at my double unders. I'm wondering about rope length..would you recommend a rope on the shorter side so you can keep your hands lower and closer to your body?

      Hahaha!!! Think about raising your chin up when doing dubs. It will head keep your body more streamline. Where your head goes, your body follows. 🙌🏼👊🏼
