Thanks for this. Getting back to jump rope. Not a complete beginner but anything beyond the basic jump is tricky. As far as building stamina any recommended workouts or types of workouts? I'm doing 30 seconds on 20 seconds off. By the end I'm exhausted
Intervals work great. I most often do 20/10, 30/10, or 30/15. I use any longer rest periods for when I want to go higher intensity. Then just make adjustments to the length of the total workout. Check out my latest jump rope drills video. There are some good drills that you can incorporate into your workouts👍
Hi, I've just discovered jump rope and want to start training with it. Can jump rope tone upper arms and lower abdomen? as in firming them as I have lost and gained weight many times causing my upper arms and abdomen to sag.
Awesome! Yes, it's definitely a full body workout, however, I would recommend adding in some bodyweight exercises as a form of resistance training. I have many workouts on my channel you can check out that incorporate both together. Use them to get the idea or follow along🤙💪
people, do not ignore the rope lenght tip, it's what got me in this channel, and its the one place where its teaching differently than others. having tried both lenght measuring methods, this one is infinitely better I'm just starting out in this thing and I'm glad that I'll learn it the right way rather than having to fix a bunch of vices later on
I’ve been having an interesting conundrum lately, so get out that Sherlock getup again, Kyle. I’m your height, have a similar rope length (roughly 8 ft.), and have previously skipped with good form with a small strike zone, but recently, with the same rope length and shoes, it’s hitting much farther out. If I tie a knot, it barely traces, or even misses, the ground, and I don’t have enough room for crossovers. The answer is my form, but it’s hard for me to figure out what’s different. I suspect my having not worked out certain muscle groups lately may have affected my jumping posture. Maybe I brought my hands even closer to my sides lately, but my form wasn’t bad before. One thing I noticed is how the strike zone decreases when my basic skip has the handles pointed out to the sides more instead of being more forward at the start of the rotation. I like to flare my wrists diagonally, push down with my thumbs, and let the rope rotate my wrists. I’ll keep filming, try to be efficient, and make sure I’m not neglecting certain muscle groups.
Haha I may have to! Based on the description you have provided I deduce that your hands may be drifting forward, lower or a combination of the two causing the rope to bottom out early. This would also explain why trying a shorter rope is then too short. Record a side shot version and see if you can identify the issue (use slow motion). If you want to get it under a 🔎, let me know and we can set something up🤙
Thanks! That could very well be it. I have long arms so my hands being too far forward is feasible. I suspect my chest, traps, and shoulders need more engagement to bring my arms back more. I know you prefer to engage the lats and bring the shoulders down so I'll see if that helps.
@@Murphy2043 when it comes to muscle engagement, be careful to not become stiff. With a light rope (basic 5-6mm PVC weight) you want to be relaxed as the centrifugal force won't be much. The main thing is you don't want to be actively pulling your shoulders back or shrugging them. I love to see that you are digging deep on what is working and finding what doesn't. 👍🤜
Find out why this is the most powerful jump rope skill ever and master it!

@@Jump15official Thanks for the response! Will definitely incorporate it into my workout. Started yesterday for just a minute...

omg, i bought that black rope and i cant feel it a it spins
Sounds like you need a rope with more weight like a 6mm pvc rope. Check out my favorites here: www.elitejumps.co/j15
When I was in gym class back around 2002 we had to jump rope. None of the teachers taught us anything. Just different moves
Ya, they probably didn't know what to teach. I don't remember anyone teaching me anything either. It was more of a figure it out on your thing haha
It's not a rocket 🚀 science it's just a skipping rope 🤔
Yet a lot of people search for how to learn it, so I help. 🤷 Why did you click?
Hey please don't get offend 😅@@Jump15official
