I've been trying to learn double unders for years, still can't seem to get the hang of them. Might be a dedication issue though, I'm just doing a double amount of singles whenever double unders are programmed.

Same thing here. From what Ive been studying from youtube videos like the Jump Rope guys is that it possibly may be a technique issue along with maybe the size and/or type of the jumprope. They say that the bigger/long the jumprope, more someone may have to hold the jumprope further away from their sides which can make it harder for them to do things like double unders. Do you use a long length jumprope?

I don't have my own rope so getting one that's made for my size might help. I need to get myself some new goals skill-wise now that I finally seem to get the hang of toes to bars and rope climbs. Might be time to get serious about double unders.
Just tried the get strong jumprope set and the high speed performance set.

This might be up your alley. They have ropes based off of height. My review so far is that these ropes are some work. I need to get that Get Lean set with the 1/4 lb and 1/2 ropes and the get slim handles. I want those AMP handles too. Next time I am getting that bolt set along with those three. I would recommend if you are serious about that jumprope shyt. Its worth it. I need that Get Lean set though and the AMP handles.

Good AM run today. 4.5 miles to start the day.
Starting to set targets for 2026. Leaned out quite a bit this year, just want to take it to the next level. Nutrition was good, too, but I can improve.
Looking to vary my exercises next year as well. Swimming and boxing are the two activities I want to fold into my routine.

These next two weeks going to be the final push and then test maxes last week of November. Going to take it easy the month of December to give my body a much needed break from the heavy lifting. Next year gonna push for a 700 lb squat/deadlift and get bench as close to 400 as possible.
An update on the crossrope.. so far, these ropes are fun as hell to use. The speed performance set really gets my breath control and cardio going. Getting better with holding the rope handles and feeling my arms with that rotation. I ordered the AMP handles and the get slim set because of the weights. Cant wait to try those out. They come in tomorrow. Would recommend for anyone that is serious about their cardio, want to take their jumprope to the next level.
Smh yup I got fukking tennis elbow…. This shyt low kill killed my momentum man… I have been going hard since may now I can’t lift shyt without pain ….. I’ve been doing nothing but core exercises and cardio for the past two weeks and it’s boring as fukk …. I tried to do chest fly machine with 20 pounds and my shyt was hurting …..I’m really sad about this shyt man
Accidental trap bar PR today 
Not even gonna front. My left shoulder has been bothering me. I notice when I sleep on my right side, my left shoulder feels like its going into my back. That shyt hurts like hell. Been having this issue for years tbh.
With that said, im obsessed with my crossrope sets. Those AMP handles are fire too. I feel like going outside and doing that shyt right now but I did my back calisthenics today in the park. Feel like taking a rest but might treat tomorrow as my rest day rest day

Whats the best exercise mat to do pushups, stomach exercises, yoga and etc? Willing to pay whatever amount of money as long as its long lasting and quality like the crossrope. jumprope. Im investing into maintaining my health nowadays.
Taking a break today from exercising. Tomorrow Im going to do my week in the gym. Starting to like exercising again because it was getting repetitive.
I WILL be taking swimming classes, buying a bike (looking into getting an electric bike or a mountain bike so I can train on a bike, wearing those biker clothes, taking some dance classes, yoga classes or whatever. Im trying to get more active and be more disciplined especially health wise. About to get the muscle ups pat down. Brought my some good resistance bands to practice in the park. About to make my own gym vs having to go to one. May try to get more people in my community into exercising and being healthy. Who knows.
Im learning how to use my energy to help my own self.
