Forget this. I'm jumping with my Ethernet cable.

Thank you for acknowledging the B.A.F.Fs and C.A.F.Fs. (Broke as f*** folks and Cheap as f*** folks). Crossrope is very good but I do have to save for them. 😊

of course I see this AFTER I bought my jump rope ahhh

Check the clearance sections of TJ Maxx or any of those discount stores. I got a Fila licorice jump rope like the LIMM one he talks about in the video for $4 and a 1lb weighted rope from Head Fitness for $6. Those kinds of stores have great deals on exercise equipment

There’s a saying in Spanish that explains what you’re meaning at the end of the video: “Lo Barato Sale Caro” which means “What’s Cheap Comes Out Expensive” meaning that multiple purchases of worn out ropes is worse that spending on quality ropes. Sometimes the question is not, “Is It Worth It?” rather the question is “Am I Worth It?”

Stumbled across this channel while trying to figure out how to stop being “skinny fat”. I dropped over 30 lbs last year by getting back into running. Now I’ve plateaued at 175lbs (I’m 6ft). I bought a weighted handle jump rope and broke it during the first workout. Ordered my Crossrope set today. Hopefully this, combined with my distance running routine will get me where I want to be. Super stoked to get out and #DoTheThing!

Man, now you tell me after I already bought a cheap jump rope...

I started in March 25th i was 192 and today may 6 i weigh 174 😆 thanks you guys have really helped me out

I have a beaded rope that I've used extensively. She was my original love, now I have a CR set which I adore ... but the rope I pack for travel in my go-bag is my beaded rope. I've had it for about 15 years now and is always a steadfast backup. All my friends who I am trying to talk into getting into jumping rope ... I'll buy them one of these... cheap, affordable, and durable.

First off, I love this channel and your passion for helping people live healthy. I was an "old school" fighter (boxing) back in the 80's and used leather ropes. One trick we used was to soak the end of the rope in a bucket of water... it gave it a nice weight. However, the weight will put more demand on the ball bearings and shorten the life-span of the rope a little. Love you guys... keep the videos coming!

Love how professional and honest you are!!

I remember the plastic ropes. Back in middle school, whenever we had free time in P.E, I always went for the plastic jump rope. I LOVED it so much. All I did though was basic, stepping forward, and backwards. I looked to see if Amazon has these, and they do! Planning on getting one.

I think you're right about the plastic coated cable "ropes." One of my ropes is a plastic/cable, and while it's very fast, if any part of the rope even slightly nips any part of my body, i miss, while with other types, the rope just keeps going (particularly true w/tricks).

Just ordered a crossrope via amazon before I found you guys.. I'll buy my next through your links. I'm in Australia and am battling to reduce my type 2 diabetes medication through weight loss. Started at 102Kg, and am down to 94Kg. Target is 82Kg. Adding "skipping" to my treadmill and swimming routine. I've been trying with a cheap as chips rope and can't get any rhythm going with it, I look like a totally uncoordinated fool. My kids get a great laugh out of it. It was suggested that I get a weighted rope to try, hence the google searches and eventually finding your great channel. So now not only do I think I figured out where I am going wrong, I've also got some great motivation tubes to watch.

great vedio dudes what an iconic advice dudes thanks alot for the great effort Do The Thing

Dudes, the common Polypropylene jump rope. The best of the best. They are eternal.

Cheers dudes for the lower priced recommendations

I beaded up a survival & cross rope to make it heavier. The thin speed cable was hard for me to keep a good Rhythm.. I'm only been jumping rope for 2 months and beading up this type of rope really helped me and I was able to learn some tricks like the cross and boxer skip. I will be eventually buying a cross rope. You guys rock.

I need to get into jump rope regularly until I know I'm commited. I had a leather Lonsdale Jump Rope but the spin mechanism is poor. It felt light as f... I like more whip when I spin.

The beaded rope reminded me of my double dutch-ing days

I love that you did this video. Thanks!

Currently using 3$ jump rope while saving for the rush athletics. After that im gonna be saving for crossrope!

Currently, i cannot afford the cross rope so i am using a rope somewhat like the champion sports leather and i really like it. It gives me really good feedback and the resistance is okay but is really fun to use. If you ask me personally i would totally recommend it .cheers.

Hey i got the same licorice rope with thin handles , its really good to adjust.

Currently using the thin handle one! I like it!!

Very helpfull...especially for us who are not on your side of the world as you guys,, i will know what type of material should i go for next time

Have you tried the Legacy Rope from Rush Athletics? I use Crossrope but I've tried this one and it's a good alternative, although it's only one weight

Idk why I repeatedly watch your same videos again and again... love you JRD always...

I got an XYLsports Jump Rope, it's adjustable. It's pretty good. It lasts longer than most and its got the soft foam pad handles (which i like).

Great video, thanks guys

I've been following your routines with No rope lol and ive been seeing good results

I just started jump roping thanks to you guys I have all sorts of motivation lol. I can’t afford the cross rope right now but I’m hoping if I stick with a routine and make a hobby & lifestyle change out of this over the next few months then I can put it on my birthday wishlist! 😃

I have the last one which is good so far for almost a year. I had the first two which lasted a few months.

Interesting vid mate. Learned a few things.

I've got the same jump rope in black and blue color with weight inside the handle and it works great for me

I have a jump rope (A Fitness Keys brand is what the stamp on one of the handles states, the rope looks similar to boxer jump rope but my jump rope's handles are cushion padded) that I had purchased several years ago. Still in great condition because I didn't use it much until now. The rope is great condition as I use it more during my fitness. However it is light and doesn't swing smoothly around me unless I speed up and jump up high or skip with one foot in the front of the other. When I try to continue doing the small two feet together jumps as I swing the jump rope at a slow to medium pace, it hits and stops at my ankles. Stopping me from jumping constantly in place. Any suggestions please? Or is it best to purchase a new jump rope that moves more smoothly when I practice and do my fitness?

Amazing video 💪

Will eventually get the Crossrope but beaded has been my go-to. Have tried others but it has worked best for me. The rope does break, though, and beads everywhere does suck...

I’ve been using the survival rope and the same thing happened to me with the handle coming undone.. what the heck. I wanna eventually save up to get a crossrope but licorice rope will do for now. Thanks

Im using Licorice rope with thin handles from Kettler, its only cost 4$. Great for speed and trick.

I've been using an old plastic beaded jumprope, just started jumping about a month ago. It's got a decent weight to feel it's position. But after doing lots of jumping on my hardwood floor, I noticed that the spot where the rope hits looked scuffed. It was this residue from the beads. (I sanded it off and applied some polyurethane, looks ok now.) So now when I jump indoors I do it on my old yoga mat to protect the hardwood floor. I've been saving up to get a Crossrope set (!$$$!), now that I feel I really like jumping and will stick with it, so I can do the Crossrope 30 day challenge.

Nice tips!

I bought the first one (speed rope)last week from amazon and as you said I don’t feel like actually doing a workout but still better than nothing I wish you made this video earlier 🙁

Its a very helpful video....but I have one question.Are foam handle jump ropes troublesome...I mean does it slip from hand or something like that?Should I buy one?

I'm a beginner, I want to lose weight, my current weight is 124kg. I bought a speed jump rope before searching which jump rope is best for beginners. I'm struggling right now because I don't know which jump rope is the right for me. With my speed rope is so hard to find my rhythm, can you give me any advice please, which jump rope should I buy?

I hate the thin cable ropes (speed ropes)...I consider those solely for Crossfitters doing double-unders. and, if you whack your calf with one...it smarts...it'll leave a mark :-)

Your thumbnails are so attractive and your video quality has improved a lot now. 👍

Notification Nation!

My go to rope for the last few years is the Gold's Gym Extreme Weighted Cable Rope. According to my food scale with weights it weighs 15.5 oz. I jump on a rubber surface so it lasts me about 6 months before I break it. I also jump for at least 30 mins a day averaging 165 reps per minute. I really want to try the cross ropes, but I'm afraid that I may not like them as much and I'm cheap.

Hi Dan, My Grandaughter who is 8 saw me jumping and wants to jump as well. I searched your channel but did not see a video about jump ropes for children, specific to children issues and recommendations, children's jump rope recommendations, etc... You get the point by now. Did I miss the video or can you produce one? After all, in a few years, all these kids will be your next subscribers. Ha! Thanks for all your help, my Crossrope Get Lean Jump Rope Set is supposed to arrive tomorrow. I look forward to putting down my speed rope and using that. - Love and Happiness, Dave

When I started to get into skipping I used a long charging cable for my xbox for a month until I knew I was ready to commit. I went out and got me an everlast(leather) speed rope for under 20 and it's great. The rope does kinda matter because since I switched my skipping times are much more fluid.

Are any jump ropes good on cement? Aside from Crossrope?

would you guys do a video on recommended weighted ropes for under $20? Im sure a lot of people like me wanted a more affordable weighted rope for weightloss while saving up for that crossrope set.

Awesome review thank you

I like the weighted one you mentioned with the weights that came out of the end. i am not good enough to warrant getting the best of the best in ropes. right now. i am concentrating on coordination. so I don't trip up. and I have to lose weight,

Cool 😎 brother!! Thank you!!👆💪👍👊

Thanks I'm learning!!✌👍💪👊

I needed this, I don’t have a jump rope mat so I burn through all my ropes 😅

I jumped rope a little in the past and used a cheap rope. After I did the four week program, I purchased the Shredded Ninja program and invested in a Cross Rope (first gen). It was day and night! The second gen came out a little after I finished the program. I almost regretted not waiting, but I can't imagine doing shredded ninja with my cheap rope.

For me, the best part about a cheap beaded rope is that if you're jumping outside or on a surface that will scuff and wear the beads, even if you wear through one or two (or more) beads at the impact points, when they fall off, other beads will just slide into place. Self-healing, if you will. Cheers.

awesome vid! speaking of awesome things today I did the Week1-Day3 workout from your 4W challenge.. Damn, I hate you guys.. And so do my legs.. Hope I'll be able to move tommorow :D

Good info.

I just found y'all yesterday! I don't know yet if y'all have videos that we could do with y'all! But that's what I think I need ., cause I start feeling fatigue and end up getting sloppy and mess up! I want to be able to go longer! Do y'all have any suggestions on that?

I have a licorice w/ thin handles (i am a beginner) i don’t Think it is Good because the rope quickly twists and tangles, the more I jump rope. I just bought it. I am considering buying another one, though I will give this one a chance. I will use it for some time or maybe try to fix the problem by taping the rope to the handle. Idk it might work or it might not. What do you suggest¿

Nortech do a liquirce rope that is indestructible on concrete. They use anti-scruff material. They range from £5 to £10.

I'm so glad you made this video, I have a Gold's Gym jump rope and I've dropped it so many times I've had to duct tape it to stay together... Lol

This channel is dope....I put beads on my licorice rope. I get the need weight and it’s easier to do tricks!!!

My rope has a weighted handle but the rope itself is made of thick (heavy-ish) cotton with about an 8 inch rubbery/plastic tubing to protect it for when it hits the ground. Has anyone seen a review for this kind of rope, how it compares with others and also durability?

The orange limm is good for filming vids because of its brightness. I found the ropes all come from the same factory and were once liquid, which means they smelled good and will eventually stretch and dry - so our ropes lengthen. I found the Spri best because of a long handle, which lets you lengthen an shorten during transitions, especially up stairs. just sayin, thumbs up 919

I will be using on like concrete slabs so which is most recommended?

I have the empower weighted handle rope. It's great! I had just bought it. Am I able to adjust the length though? I can't figure out how :-/ and I don't want to ruin it.

You guys have any experience using Rush Athletic’s speed rope? Thanks!

Does jumping on roof damage the roof i am 66 kg i want to use in my first floor room but my father is saying go ground floor, not allowing me to jump.

I have one of them crossfit ropes, which is basically a bicycle brake cable. I've lost three toes and half an ear, think it's time for one of them lickrish ropes!

Hi there, I just recently started jump rope and bought this jump rope off amazon (FITFORT Skipping Rope Adult) but I'm not sure if its the right rope I need for what I am trying to achieve. I would like to loose weight and just over all become fitter any advice would help...

Any suggestions for adjusting the length of the rope? I was was watching your other video highlighting beginner mistakes; I'm 152.4 cm tall.

Hello, have you tried PULSE brand weighted jump ropes? If you have, would you recommend those?

I used crossrope year the best rope Thanku for all your tips

Crossrope did sell a cheap rope on your site and I snagged one. It is my favorite rope and wish you still sold it. And I do have a get lean set too.

What kind of rope would you recommend for a taller person? I've purchased a couple jump ropes and have a clearance problem as it spins and usually barely misses or hits me in the back of the head.

I just ordered the Heavy Muay Thai Rope 2.0 for 25.00 tax and shipping. It's a weighted rope, 2lbs. Probably good for beginning and better then most ropes out there if your goal is to get fit , lose fat and build strength. I will be starting next week when I get it delivered to me, as an additional tool to add to my fitness. I already ride a bike 10 miles before work 3 days a week. TRX 2 days a week after work and use the fitbod app in weight lifting 3 days a week after work also try to get lap swimming on Sat and or Sun. I already lost 50 lbs since May 1 but I am stagnant and just hovering around the 235 lb mark. Looking to jmp rope 2 to 3 times a week for 30 mins once I get coordinated enough

I have a Master of Muscle jump rope that has a carrying case and is super thin. It’s adjustable for mine or my husband’s height and it’s only $7.00 right now on Amazon. I jump on all surfaces and have never used a mat. If you want quality AND cheap. It’s the way to go. If you want feed back, get that beaded one.

Look up the rush athletics speed rope. It’s hands down the best jump rope under 20

Amazing video Guys, I have doubt so how to prevent rope damage in concert floor. Almost i changed 4 ropes, Do i need to use any floor mate or something. Please help!!

Thank you

I have a Buddy Lee rope máster and The next one I buy will be yours

Those asking about the Money rope (TMR), he basically reviewed the same type of rope which was blue and from buyjumpropes.net (BJR). BJR ropes are 4mm maximum and TMR is a 5mm rope. Both have plastic handles. The BJR ropes sell for about $3.50 before shipping at their website so you could possibly get 3-4 ropes there for the cost of TMR. I have TMR and I don't see why it is pricier than other licorice ropes. The Jump Rope Coach is a great channel regardless. For those looking for cheap ropes locally, If you are in the US and you have a Ross store around, sometimes you can find ropes under $10.

What about rush athletics his speed rope? Great video as always

I’m using decathlon cheap ass leather jump rope. Great rope

Wow. I love this video. I love the Everlast licorice rope. However I bought the Infinity Jump rope and I had to cover part of the rope with black tape because it was getting damaged by the wooden floor at gym

Damn, I had purchased the survival cross one. Along with the decathlon one☹️

What about king athletics leather jump rope? Do you recommend that?

I have the Australian version of the liquorice rope but I’ve decided if I’m still enjoying jumping in at least six months I’ll upgrade to a cross rope

hey would you recommend Reebok RARP- 11081BL skipping rope for a beginner?

I just ordered a speed rope today too smh one day I might go for the more expensive cross ropes but for the time being the speed rope is my go to it’s still cardio and cardio is what I’ve been ignoring too long.

Love from Brunei🇧🇳
