In my opinion, one obvious and important benefit of these ropeless jump ropes is for anyone who lives in a cold weather climate. During winter, you might not want or be able to go outside to jump rope due to extreme weather and you might not have enough space in your home to jump rope either, which is where the ropeless jump rope would definitely prove useful as it doesn't take up much space.
I do fake jump rope lol. Dont even need these things. Throw on some pump me up tunes and go for half an hour. Practice getting some foot work moves down and its the best cardio I can get away with mid winter.
This is why I got them. I have a lot of the other Crossrope systems and use them faithfully throughout spring through late autumn. However, I live in Cleveland, and once winter hits, I can forget about going to the garage to jump. Too cold for me and the ropes. I got the 1/2 lb and 1lb ropeless and now I can just go in my basement and jump.
I used cordless ropes to learn to jump. I found them useful for cardio intervals especially when ceiling clearance was an issue. It was a great confidence builder before graduating to using an actual rope. It was also an inexpensive tool to gage my interest.
I've had the ropeless pack for a week. And these are a godsend. I don't have much space in my apartment, no high ceiling and I have neighbours below me and the climate is less than ideal. I did some of the crossrope workouts with them and intensity of the workouts were no different from using the ropes. The only con with these is if I loose my rhythm the balls at the ends would hit my arms. And at least I don't have to jump as high if my feet start getting tired.
I’m grateful for this video. I ordered these in October. The whole set with Amp handles. I lost 40 pounds using cheap ones. Ready to receive them! Thank you for all your inspirational help. Let’s goooo🦋
People hating on these neglect to see that a 350-450 pound person could stand on a rebounder and use these to exercise even if they can't jump rope. Not everyone can start or learn things in one full step. They need things broken down with difficulty modified to what they can do. Good video JRD! You guys are a solid influence in my life. Couldn't even do 10 skips, but now I'm counting sets of a hundred.
THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! They aren't for everyone (nothing is). But there are MANY that can get great benefit from them.
@@RespectKarma87 modify difficulty until you can do the modified task, then make it harder step by step until you nail the original goal. You got this fam!!!
This is such a good point. It does offer a lower impact option for people who are starting at a very high weight. This offers such an attainable and safe option to get started. Also for example I know someone who is very active but he has a disability in his one leg due to a car accident. This is the only way this person could get somewhat close to it
Honestly I could see the use for situations where you can’t jump. For example when I visit my mom’s house these days, it lacks the space for jumping rope without hitting the ceilings. And on most of my visits, the weather isn’t exactly great for jumping outside either (rain or snow)
I could jump rope all day at my old apartment with a high ceiling, but I stopped jumping after moving to my new place. This looks great for winter and when I don’t want to walk to the park or the weathers bad. Edit: as others have said, heavier would be great too
They are good for when you’re tired and keep tripping over the skipping rope near the end of your workout when your reaction time is off and your legs are jelly.
This is also for folks like me and the other gentleman that lost 50 pounds using cheap ropeless sets from Amazon. I’m not looking to do tricks or an authentic jump rope experience. I just want results. The young man demonstrating these doesn’t have my specific goal in mind and he is in much better shape than I. I love that Crossrope is offering something for everyone and for every fitness level if you want to jump.🌺
During lockdown I didn't have the opportunity to go to the gym or even outside to jump rope, and I couldn't do it at home either because I have a low hanging chandelier, so i bought the cheepest cordless jump rope on amazon. In 4 months I lost 11.7 kg, so if your goal is only weight loss, then it's a good alternative. Obviously if you want the benefits of a regular jump rope (coordination, cool tricks etc.) then it's not for you.
I bought them and I actually think they’re pretty good. I also have Crossrope’s regular ropes. For someone like me, living in a NYC duplex with softwood floors and not a whole lot of space, it makes sense to have these. My wife won’t let me jump rope inside, so this is a good compromise. Also, it gets cold during the winter over here, so jumping rope outside is a non-starter. I had other cordless ropes before and they sucked. These actually do kind of feel like you’re using Crossrope ropes. I’m an experienced jump roper, too.
Dan totally missed the point of the cordless rope. If I only wanted to build my upper body, there are many ways that are better than jumping rope. Push Ups, Pull Ups, cheap suspension trainers just to name a few. The intended use of these is not just spinning. You can get a good workout by doing the usual (but not trick) jump rope moves, without tripping or having to continually start over. Basic step, boxer's step, one legged jumps, running in place, high knees, etc are very effective with the handles. In addition, I use them for step ups on an aerobic step - try that with a jump rope. You could also walk with them for cardio. I also work out in my yard more often than not, and I can't jump rope on grass - the rope catches. So I can use the handles and do the jump rope moves for circuits or cardio with my other workouts. I do jump rope, but often will alternate with the cordlesshandles just to break it up, or make it easier (not tripping). If nothing else, I use it to build up my endurance for regalur jumping, since I don't have to worry about tripping and stopping all the time.
I've been searching for this comment,he totally missed the point,thank you !...This is what I use and it works for me ,you don't just spin it around,you jump with it
So i wanted to get into jumping rope but i have been getting frustrated anytime i hit the rope and have to stop. I want to be able to go for extended times but i cant do that when i keep steping on the rope every 4 jumps. I just ordered a cordless rope so i can work on endurance jumping without steping on a rope and hurting myself.
These are good for low ceilings if you still wanna use the Crossropes system, but for beginners I'd always suggest an actual rope. The whips you get are great motivation to not mess up. I'd rather get the Bluetooth handles than the ropeless ropes.
You know what? These seem kinda silly, but I spent the past two years incredibly sick, in and out of hospitals, being sent from one specialist to the next, getting weaker and more overweight the whole time. Now that I've finally found the right kinds of doctors and have an actual recovery plan, it's time to start taking off the 70lbs I've gained. That starts with walking, sure, but I think I could use these to prep for when I'm ready to actually try jumping for real. I cant jump now, I'd probably blow out both knees and have to start over on a whole new medical journey. But I can gently bounce up onto the balls of my feet. So, long walks, cordless ropes, and shadow boxing wont necessarily get me back to 100% but it might be the plan to getting on the road back to 100%.
Thank you for the review. All of the comments here are so excellent as well. I would love to get into jumping rope but my condo has no space, and I am concerned about the safety at my size. When I heard about these ropeless jump ropes I was interested but skeptical so it is extremely helpful to have a video like this from someone who knows what they're talking about. This has decided me, I'll pick up a set.
Just got these and I gotta say I love them. I haven’t jumped rope in a long long time. I didn’t have the room for it. Maybe it won’t burn as much calories as using an actual rope but it does get my heart rate up and I work up a sweat. And yes, I do jump and not just swing the ropes like you do. It seems like you didn’t really gave these a chance. Reminds me of back in the day when Vinyl “old school ” djs scoffed at DJs that played on CDs or software. In my case, it’s perfect. I’m even getting more jumps in because of the compact size of them. I get up, grab them and do a few skips right there next to my bed. Same thing at night. I give these ropes my seal of approval.
My cousin in the one fc actually lost the same amount of calories as he would using reg jump rope. he used the cordless one for his last fight camp (few months). he said if your focus is burn calories, it's doing the same thing (same with jump roping without jump rope but with weights). but he said one MAJOR benefit of jump roping is the footwork and timing and if your focus isn't just burning calories but improving footwork and timing, jump ropg with jump rope is necessary
Definitely want ti eventually get these...for now I got a set of All in motion rope less jump and your review of this is amazing. I'm going to probably have to upgrade to these. The fact that they're compact and portable will definitely be beneficial for me as I'm trying to get in shape and these will definitely help me get yo exercising frequently again.
I can imagine you can get creative with these too. I picture trying to swing these like a jump rope with control while balancing on one foot on some kind of unstable surface, really get those stabilizing muscles going
I ordered these before I found you guys and I have used rope less jump ropes for over a year now because I don't have a place to use regular ropes. I DO actually jump with them and they are great at work where I cant walk so I use them at the top of the hour to get my steps in.
Update! They arrived! And oh my god the difference between these and the ones I was using. You were saying you need to use the one or two pounders to get a workout? Oof! Going to be a minute before I get up to those!
@@Valerie_Valkyrie315 There was a delay with mine. I have been using my AMP handle with no weight with the exercise app they have and 🔥WOW… I hate to have them arrive. 😜 I’m glad the handles register without weight. That can be used on a rest day or something. Hopefully they come in today. 🦋
What a great video. You sucked it up and actually reviewed hopeless jump ropes! Great review. There are also some jump rope trick trainers with wiffle balls I’m the ends too
New to jump roping and got these a week ago ( get lean and the get strong sets)...these have been incredible in terms of helping to get arm and hand placement correct...plus i did one of your old 30 min workouts with the 1/2 lb and 1 lb while lightly running in place, and these taxed me...definitely a great workout for someone who is training to learn to use the rope but does not want to get frustrated early in the process.
May i add something: Who would use these: Disabled people/people in wheelchair. Awesome to add those in a workout. Can be very effective on your biceps, triceps, deltoids, forearms, traps, and even abs to stabilize in the wheelchair. I love those.
You very much exited me and being in a wheelchair i need to do something. I wish we had care in away of that workout. So i bought the ropless jump rope and it's a workout thank you. Hug's from Oregon.
I really want to start jumping rope but as I live in an apartment and don't really have a place I can go outside to jump I've been thinking of getting something like this, OR if there is a way to jump with a rope but lessen the sound so my downstairs neighbors don't get annoyed.
OK...I can see how they could be useful. How long till the "Ropeless Jump Rope Vs Jump Rope Calorie burn" video? Honestly...I want to see it. Jumper about to spend his anniversary on a cruise ship wants to know (small cruise ship doing the costal waterway to Alaska...so jumping rope out on deck may not be an option). Also, I wonder how useful these would be between sets in the gym.
I work out in my basement and fortunately I’m only 5’6 so I’m able to jump jump just fine but my friend is a lot taller so the Ropeless jump rope would be a huge benefit for us working out together.
I just received a pair of the two pound cordless jump rope and immediately recognized what you said during this video, “your can’t substitute the jump rope experience”. I live in the Northeast and it’s cold during the winter so these will do for now as the product, in my opinion is fair. However, if Crossrope makes a three pound version of the cordless rope I would more than likely buy it as the two pound cordless rope gives a fair workout.
I love it! At first I felt really sceptical about it, but it works great for me. Of course you can’t compare it to the regular jump rope. It helps me with my tv show addiction:)) When I found my self that I watch too much episodes and spent my evenings as a coach potato, I decided to jump while watching an episode. It is very easy to do with ropeless jump rope , because it isn’t this intense as when you use a regular rope and you don’t need this much attention to your movements.
I love that and glad you've found a creative way to do the thing! It adds a healthier habit to something you enjoy, a good TV binge, and you're getting the benefit!
Check out LED Poi. It’s a form of throw-art that originated from New Zealand. You also use regular poi which are on fire. That’s what these remind me of. I have led poi and this type of “jump rope”!
With music, I do try swinging forwards, backwards, cross swings inwards, outwards, even variations of arm distances up and down, do the lasso overhead or I get bored. But that said, in the process I’ve hit myself in the face a couple of times.
my cousin in the ONE FC has been using this for his last fight camp. He's said jump rope is nice for the footwork. But when your focus is to lose fat via pure cardio, he's said it's literally the same thing. But he also said he could get the same result by "jump roping" while holding weights.
We agree, moving your body consistently and getting into a calorie deficit is one of the most effective ways to lose weight. However... How engaging are jumping jacks? How much fun is it to hold a couple weights and jump around with a timer going? Part of the reason we (and SOOOOOO many others) are successful with jump rope is because you can have a style. You can learn new tricks. You can challenge yourself. This makes it engaging. When someone is engaged they tend to get more consistent and consistency = results.
One other problem these might solve: I noticed that I had the habit of using virtually all elbow and no wrist in my non-dominant arm. These have proved useful in training the wrists to do the work. I've noticed my upper body is more symmetrical. More wrist + less elbow/shoulder = longer jump sets! Something to add to a sit and chill session
I know people who use the ropeless as an alternative. you can still mimic the movement without jumping off the ground. Hope this helps, I know it's a bummer to deal with injuries
For a weekend martial artist is it good enough for arms endurance and footwork? ( I also can jump the normal one but i want something for more shoulder endurance without to much impact on footwork coordonation)
I think these were made to do more than to mimic jump rope motion. Think about arm circles, where your arm is pointing straight out to the side or in front of you and mimicking a window washing type movement while holding these. And also varying the size of the circle motion and the direction .
I started rope skipping but did not manage to coordinate anything else than normal jumps. Always tripping. So i stopped because i was getting too frustrated. At first i thought that this ropeless things could be for me, but at least i could hold two sticks or anything else in my hands. I do not know...
@@JumpRopeDudes Yes, the coordination especially when trying alternate jumps is a challenge and I don't feel any progress. Of course it's quite late to start something like that at 57. Children and teenagers have it easier... ;)
Looks like jump ropes with a microphone at the end of it, I'll just use my nunchuks instead. The beauty of jump roping is the timing and reflex of the workout (as well as getting in your cardio), and Crossrope gave you that along with strengthening your upperbody (especially foorearms) along with the option of changing different ropes with different handles. These won't give you that, but a good forearm endurance workout instead. As Jump Rope dude said it, it can be good for beginners to get the feel of the real experience.
Saw a pair like this at the store when I got me normal rope, laughed. Then I finally got out and used my rope, catch my damn feet every ten swings. I'll probably eventually get into the swing of things but I might go back and get the Bluetooth version so I can just go Might help taking a foot out of my rope too, for my height it said 9 foot but it seems too long
Personally i could care less about doing tricks. I just want the workout, and ropless tools let me do differenr jumps like boxer skips or shuffles immediately without massive frustration of having to dedicate weeks of learning a new skill every time i just wanna get a wirkout in
That's great to hear. There are many reasons people like the ropeless and its always interesting to hear something I didn't think of. You're right, it's a great workout without all the tripping and frustration.
I have been interested in it because it would help me with imagining to spin the rope while learning a new trick like running in place and boxer skips but didn't want to buy it until you tested them out
I live in an apartment so I bought two, one inch yoga matt's that I found on Amazon, I fold them both in half, stacking them on top of each other and I use clamps on the top one to keep the folded matt together ... I can mimic jumping rope any time of day quietly , shoes or no shoes
Jump rope dude Im new to jumprope and got get lean set..was thinking of getting ropless for days its raining outside...im stuck deciding if I should get 1/2lb or 1LB. And can I use my get lean handles with 1lb also
Go for the get lean set. 1/2 + 1/4. If you can only get one rope, go for the 1/2 (it's rad!). Technically the rope will fit on the lean handles, but we don't recommend it.
I’m considering these. I have a one year old who just started to walk and follows me everywhere. This is good to keep her safe and get my jump rope on.
I feel like since I wouldn't be timing the motion of the jump around the rotation of the rope, my jump/steps would be so out of sync and I would end up just twirling. If I did alternating step jumps with this, my legs would feel separate from the motion of the twirling. Probably would be great for forearms and wrists, though. And of course close quarters.
I jump with the 2 lb rope (when I can go outside) and with the 2 lb ropeless (when I need to stay inside my house). The experience is totally different for me. The ropeless feels so much easier and lighter. I feel that I have to do at least twice the time in order to feel the same workout in my body. I wish they would have a 3 lb ropeless. I would buy it for sure. Do you have any info regarding this? Or how could I make my 2 lb ropeless heavier?
I wonder if these would help a beginner learn the rhythm of different footwork without getting tripped up 🤔 I am a beginner and always trip up with any alternating foot moves ☹️
I'm wondering if this might be a good option for folks with knee problems? I have arthritis in my left knee and my Orthopedic Dr didn't like the idea of me jumping rope. :(
I'm gonna be honest, I'm not feeling these. The only benefits would be to use them in stairwells, the living room and most closed-in areas. But I like the feeling of an actual rope rotating over my head and under my feet. But that's just me, and I can see the benefits for those who've not worked out in a while or are too heavy to impact their heart with jumping.
😆 your partner sounds like a judgemental person who probably isn't that fit himself. What if someone was 350 pounds and couldn't jump? This could get them started. Tell your partner to get off his high horse and to work on himself.
The review was cool but would have been so much better if you did a actual jumprope workout with the ropeless ropes instead of standing there just twirling them.

The 1lb. and 2lb. ropeless can double as a self-defense weapon if you're being accosted from someone. 🤣🤣

Yes, I do jump with mine as well. For an hour or more on a rebounder daily. Just swinging them will do nothing. I can’t wait till mine arrive!
rad!
Update! They arrived! And oh my god the difference between these and the ones I was using. You were saying you need to use the one or two pounders to get a workout? Oof! Going to be a minute before I get up to those!
@@Valerie_Valkyrie315 There was a delay with mine. I have been using my AMP handle with no weight with the exercise app they have and 🔥WOW… I hate to have them arrive. 😜 I’m glad the handles register without weight. That can be used on a rest day or something. Hopefully they come in today. 🦋
To be honest, JRD system is built as a mindset. Doesn’t matter what tools we use, as long as we do the thing, then the thing will do for us. 😊
THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@JumpRopeDudes much love kind sirs! :)
What a great video. You sucked it up and actually reviewed hopeless jump ropes! Great review. There are also some jump rope trick trainers with wiffle balls I’m the ends too
New to jump roping and got these a week ago ( get lean and the get strong sets)...these have been incredible in terms of helping to get arm and hand placement correct...plus i did one of your old 30 min workouts with the 1/2 lb and 1 lb while lightly running in place, and these taxed me...definitely a great workout for someone who is training to learn to use the rope but does not want to get frustrated early in the process.
Awesome, thanks for sharing your experience
May i add something:
Who would use these: Disabled people/people in wheelchair. Awesome to add those in a workout. Can be very effective on your biceps, triceps, deltoids, forearms, traps, and even abs to stabilize in the wheelchair. I love those.
right?!
I agree no short cuts, if do you have a shoulder tendinitis do faux jump, and save money
You very much exited me and being in a wheelchair i need to do something. I wish we had care in away of that workout. So i bought the ropless jump rope and it's a workout thank you. Hug's from Oregon.
I really want to start jumping rope but as I live in an apartment and don't really have a place I can go outside to jump I've been thinking of getting something like this, OR if there is a way to jump with a rope but lessen the sound so my downstairs neighbors don't get annoyed.
get outside! You haven't started yet and you're already creating excuses. If this is important to you, you'll find a way!
OK...I can see how they could be useful. How long till the "Ropeless Jump Rope Vs Jump Rope Calorie burn" video? Honestly...I want to see it. Jumper about to spend his anniversary on a cruise ship wants to know (small cruise ship doing the costal waterway to Alaska...so jumping rope out on deck may not be an option). Also, I wonder how useful these would be between sets in the gym.
stay tuned!
I work out in my basement and fortunately I’m only 5’6 so I’m able to jump jump just fine but my friend is a lot taller so the Ropeless jump rope would be a huge benefit for us working out together.
Oh noooo!!! I use that one... because I live in an apartment... and I actually jump, like the young man you showed in your video....
I just received a pair of the two pound cordless jump rope and immediately recognized what you said during this video, “your can’t substitute the jump rope experience”. I live in the Northeast and it’s cold during the winter so these will do for now as the product, in my opinion is fair.
However, if Crossrope makes a three pound version of the cordless rope I would more than likely buy it as the two pound cordless rope gives a fair workout.
I love it! At first I felt really sceptical about it, but it works great for me. Of course you can’t compare it to the regular jump rope.
It helps me with my tv show addiction:)) When I found my self that I watch too much episodes and spent my evenings as a coach potato, I decided to jump while watching an episode. It is very easy to do with ropeless jump rope , because it isn’t this intense as when you use a regular rope and you don’t need this much attention to your movements.
I love that and glad you've found a creative way to do the thing! It adds a healthier habit to something you enjoy, a good TV binge, and you're getting the benefit!
Check out LED Poi. It’s a form of throw-art that originated from New Zealand. You also use regular poi which are on fire. That’s what these remind me of. I have led poi and this type of “jump rope”!
I feel like these would be great if one had an injury in the lower body, but still wanted to get a good cardio workout.
What about of using them as a weapon?
They seem oddly similar to nunchucks
just use caution. you could just as easily injure yourself.
With music, I do try swinging forwards, backwards, cross swings inwards, outwards, even variations of arm distances up and down, do the lasso overhead or I get bored. But that said, in the process I’ve hit myself in the face a couple of times.
my cousin in the ONE FC has been using this for his last fight camp. He's said jump rope is nice for the footwork. But when your focus is to lose fat via pure cardio, he's said it's literally the same thing. But he also said he could get the same result by "jump roping" while holding weights.
We agree, moving your body consistently and getting into a calorie deficit is one of the most effective ways to lose weight. However...
How engaging are jumping jacks?
How much fun is it to hold a couple weights and jump around with a timer going?
Part of the reason we (and SOOOOOO many others) are successful with jump rope is because you can have a style. You can learn new tricks. You can challenge yourself.
This makes it engaging. When someone is engaged they tend to get more consistent and consistency = results.
One other problem these might solve: I noticed that I had the habit of using virtually all elbow and no wrist in my non-dominant arm. These have proved useful in training the wrists to do the work. I've noticed my upper body is more symmetrical. More wrist + less elbow/shoulder = longer jump sets! Something to add to a sit and chill session
Looks like a great way to get TSA excited in your carry on. Not sure how they would react with a regular rope either.
right?! I heard someone say they got stopped by TSA for their ropeless lol. I usually check a bag and throw my rope in there so it's no prob.
Facing knee pain…i alsobend knee while jumping…what to do
bummer! check out the kneesovertoesguy!
I had a similar thought to you when I first saw crossrope’s version so thanks for the review Dan
This might be great for shoulder rehab.. sort of like an alternative to a Bodyblade
yeeup! It has some pretty rad uses!
Thanks Dan. I was waiting for a review of these ropeless jump ropes.
My orthopedic surgeon said no more jump roping. I'm looking if there's an accessibility jump rope method because I have screws in my food. 😢
I know people who use the ropeless as an alternative. you can still mimic the movement without jumping off the ground. Hope this helps, I know it's a bummer to deal with injuries
For a weekend martial artist is it good enough for arms endurance and footwork? ( I also can jump the normal one but i want something for more shoulder endurance without to much impact on footwork coordonation)
honestly shouldn't be even bad. could strengthen your wrists and good for people who don't like the rope noise hitting the floor.
💯
I think these were made to do more than to mimic jump rope motion. Think about arm circles, where your arm is pointing straight out to the side or in front of you and mimicking a window washing type movement while holding these. And also varying the size of the circle motion and the direction .
I started rope skipping but did not manage to coordinate anything else than normal jumps. Always tripping. So i stopped because i was getting too frustrated.
At first i thought that this ropeless things could be for me, but at least i could hold two sticks or anything else in my hands.
I do not know...
Jump rope is tough. the ropeless system is cool, but it sounds like you just need to dedicate more time to figuring this out.
@@JumpRopeDudes Yes, the coordination especially when trying alternate jumps is a challenge and I don't feel any progress. Of course it's quite late to start something like that at 57. Children and teenagers have it easier... ;)
I'm not interest in jump roping, but I feel this would be a great cardio workout. I'd definitely do this.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes! 💪🏻
My basement ceiling isn’t high enough to jump rope and it’s 40 below zero outside and it’s near zero in my garage. I use these for those times.
great idea!
Seems like a great tool to have as a backup
Yes, many people prefer these for indoors.
Looks like jump ropes with a microphone at the end of it, I'll just use my nunchuks instead.
The beauty of jump roping is the timing and reflex of the workout (as well as getting in your cardio), and Crossrope gave you that along with strengthening your upperbody (especially foorearms) along with the option of changing different ropes with different handles.
These won't give you that, but a good forearm endurance workout instead. As Jump Rope dude said it, it can be good for beginners to get the feel of the real experience.
How about using these on a treadmill?
Saw a pair like this at the store when I got me normal rope, laughed. Then I finally got out and used my rope, catch my damn feet every ten swings. I'll probably eventually get into the swing of things but I might go back and get the Bluetooth version so I can just go
Might help taking a foot out of my rope too, for my height it said 9 foot but it seems too long
Excellent for an extra boxing workout. These and arm circles
Interesting 🤔
I had no idea these were a thing. Thanks for the thorough review, I will try them out.
Can you use the jumpers ropes and follow along with one of your workouts?
of course
I tried them for the first time. I was able to move faster and do jump rope moves I typically struggle with such as the high knees
nice!
First! Lol, I started following you guys last year since jumping rope is one of my favorite exercises. Good work, fellas!
Personally i could care less about doing tricks. I just want the workout, and ropless tools let me do differenr jumps like boxer skips or shuffles immediately without massive frustration of having to dedicate weeks of learning a new skill every time i just wanna get a wirkout in
That's great to hear. There are many reasons people like the ropeless and its always interesting to hear something I didn't think of. You're right, it's a great workout without all the tripping and frustration.
Se nao usar para pular, e usar apenas para exercitar os braços será que enrijece?
I'm not sure I understand your question... 🤔
I would like to use standing, but exercising my arms, not simulating jumping rope.
I have been interested in it because it would help me with imagining to spin the rope while learning a new trick like running in place and boxer skips but didn't want to buy it until you tested them out
I live in an apartment so I bought two, one inch yoga matt's that I found on Amazon, I fold them both in half, stacking them on top of each other and I use clamps on the top one to keep the folded matt together ... I can mimic jumping rope any time of day quietly , shoes or no shoes
nice!
I have one and i love it if you have a tight space ir the gym is crowded you can still use it easy
Jump rope dude Im new to jumprope and got get lean set..was thinking of getting ropless for days its raining outside...im stuck deciding if I should get 1/2lb or 1LB. And can I use my get lean handles with 1lb also
Go for the get lean set. 1/2 + 1/4.
If you can only get one rope, go for the 1/2 (it's rad!).
Technically the rope will fit on the lean handles, but we don't recommend it.
I’m considering these. I have a one year old who just started to walk and follows me everywhere. This is good to keep her safe and get my jump rope on.
Not a bad option, but still, if one of these hits anyone, it's really gonna hurt em.
maybe just skip when she's napping?
@@JumpRopeDudes True. That is a cheaper option.
This is a great way to train the movement of jumping rope in reverse if you haven’t practiced backwards movements
I feel like since I wouldn't be timing the motion of the jump around the rotation of the rope, my jump/steps would be so out of sync and I would end up just twirling. If I did alternating step jumps with this, my legs would feel separate from the motion of the twirling.
Probably would be great for forearms and wrists, though. And of course close quarters.
It's great for close quarters... for that use and other limitations, it's awesome!
I jump with the 2 lb rope (when I can go outside) and with the 2 lb ropeless (when I need to stay inside my house). The experience is totally different for me. The ropeless feels so much easier and lighter. I feel that I have to do at least twice the time in order to feel the same workout in my body.
I wish they would have a 3 lb ropeless. I would buy it for sure. Do you have any info regarding this? Or how could I make my 2 lb ropeless heavier?
we don't unfortunately, but you could shoot a note over to crossrope and they might be able to help?
Thank You for the review. I've been wondering about these.
I wonder if these would help a beginner learn the rhythm of different footwork without getting tripped up 🤔 I am a beginner and always trip up with any alternating foot moves ☹️
perhaps. Some people say it has helped them.
I’m autistic and I didn’t learn to jump rope until my 30’s. I still can’t do any of your workouts.
Ropeless jump ropes are a great adaptive invention.
that's a great point, thanks for sharing!
I'm wondering if this might be a good option for folks with knee problems? I have arthritis in my left knee and my Orthopedic Dr didn't like the idea of me jumping rope. :(
could def be a great fit!
I'm gonna be honest, I'm not feeling these. The only benefits would be to use them in stairwells, the living room and most closed-in areas. But I like the feeling of an actual rope rotating over my head and under my feet. But that's just me, and I can see the benefits for those who've not worked out in a while or are too heavy to impact their heart with jumping.
we hear ya.,
Hi quick question can i use a yoga mat to make my crossrope last longer
you could, but your crossrope will probably destroy your yoga mat in a few sessions.
No actually it’s like a high quality rubber mat i have been using it for about a month and nothing happened to the mat
Use training mat! Ive been using mine for 2 years the mat is 10mm , rope and mat in perfect condition
Jump rope dudes, can you use the get lean handles with 1lb ropeless crossrope
you can, but it's not recommended. Really tough on the hands.
Thank You!
Just spoke to my partner. Showed him the info. He said is for those who does not want to exercise.
seems like your partner doesn't know much about fitness
😆 your partner sounds like a judgemental person who probably isn't that fit himself. What if someone was 350 pounds and couldn't jump? This could get them started.
Tell your partner to get off his high horse and to work on himself.
@@TastyTrees916 or it might be Sohaila herself😂
thx for the video! I am very interested in those ropes. I have the infinity rope system. Do you know if the ropeless ropes work with those?
Yeup! All of the newer crossrope stuff is compatible.
Where is the original video of the guy lost 50 lbs with the cordless jump rope? I can't find it
it was a feature on our IG page... no yt vid :(
These look both funny & cool at the same time 😃
I would use these and actually jump when I can’t go outdoors, the ceiling in my home gym is too low for a jump rope
Could you please demo a mic drop with these?
I was looking for something like this for my mother who can benefit from jumping rope but currently lacks the ability to jump.
this could be really good for her!
I struggle to regular jump rope. I am hoping this ropeless jump rope is the bridge for me to become proficient at regular jump rope.
For sure, it's a great tool to practice timing your swings and jumps without worrying about getting whipped.
If I want an upper body rope workout I’m doing battle ropes. Sorry Crossrope. And I love my cross ropes! Thanks for the review.
Interested in a comparison btwn the rope & rope less systems on WHOOP.
Didn't know Crossrope made them, good to know, thanks Dan.
these are good but i only use them at home for strengthening my arms
They're awesome for all sorts of reasons. Glad you like them too!!
The review was cool but would have been so much better if you did a actual jumprope workout with the ropeless ropes instead of standing there just twirling them.
I personally don’t enjoy working out in front of other people so I do home work outs and my ceilings aren’t tall enough to let me actually jump rope
