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. 😊

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

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?”

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

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

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

Love how professional and honest you are!!

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!

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!

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.

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

Cheers dudes for the lower priced recommendations

I love that you did this video. Thanks!

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.

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

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

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

Great video, thanks guys

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

Interesting vid mate. Learned a few things.

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).

Amazing video 💪

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! 😃

Nice tips!

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

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

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

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

Cool 😎 brother!! Thank you!!👆💪👍👊

Notification Nation!

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.

Good info.

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

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...

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

Awesome review thank you

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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

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.

Thanks I'm learning!!✌👍💪👊

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

Thank you

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 :-)

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

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 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?

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,

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

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

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

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 🙁

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.

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

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

Love from Brunei🇧🇳

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

I bought your ropes they're awesome thanks you guys 😀

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.

I bought the FitMotion on Amazon. It's less than $20. It's a speed rope. Economical handles to fit comfortably in my hands. It's a metal cord with a sturdy, durable plastic covering it. It's even adjustable! You guys rock! Going to buy a Cross Rope weighted rope hopefully very soon!

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.

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

You were in NYC. Don't you know that all the playgrounds have rubber mats? The "outdoor gyms" do, too, I think. I use the new one on Park Drive East in Queens and it does have a rubber mat. I almost only jump at the park on the mat. My plantar fasciitis flares up if I jump on concrete. I own a speed rope, 1 pound licorice, Limm licorice and 2 beaded ropes (it was a set). I like the beaded best, 1 pound the second best.

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.

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

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'm pumped bubba!!!

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

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.

Just a thought on leather ropes. It takes some time but you can condition the leather (I have used mink oil) and once the leather absorbs the conditioner, it gains weight and whip, much more like a licorice rope but durable. Caveat: none of the leather ropes I have bought since have equaled the quality of the leather used in my 1982 rope that lasted years before finally wearing though. The leather ropes today, like the one you tried, arrive extremely dried out and feather light, so it may not be worth someone's time to work with the leather to prepare it for use.

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

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?

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¿

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...

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!!

So which one do you recommend the most for beginners?

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?

Thank you for being honest.
