Thinking of buying 5 pound heavy jump ropes

[UpAndComing]

I can already do 600 jumps with 1 lb. Think I might take the leap to the 3, 4, or 5 pound realm


Wish me luck

What Benefit Are The Ropes In Comparison To The Weights? is it simply just another tool or something else?

I would think they would strengthen stabilizers or somethin

What does this work on op? Weighted jump ropes.

Just got one, haven’t tried it yet

More intense workout than a regular jump rope... and if it’s 2 slow then double jump

Give yourself arthritis with those ropes


I have the elite srs boxers rope

is this a good muscular exercise?
because when you jump rope with heavy ropes it's mostly just your wrist and forearms swiging the rope not any other muscle from what i can see

Not really imo, moreso for stamina, better off just doing wrist curls

i do 1000 jumps a day with 1/2 lb, 1 lb, and 2lb ropes. Takes me 45 min and i mix it up with pushups, shadow boxing, and other calisthenics. I've lost about 15 lbs over the past month and i was already in decent shape prior.

Jump rope is an excellent way to lose weight and get shredded. Plus ive added a few inches to my vertical. My legs have never been more defined. This combined with boxing has been excellent for my physique

 

[UpAndComing]

Ordered them

Why not just do burpees and the various different types

 

[NoMorePie]

Like I mean... might as well try it. Don't like it then just return it

But for me I'd rather just use regular jump rope

Don't be a p*ssy, go all the way. RopeFit puts out an 8.0 lb rope that's 2" thick. No handle joints so your wrists/shoulders gotta brute force that shyt too.
