Instructions

  1. Grasp each handle and let the rope hang behind you. Keep the handles at your sides.
  2. Raise the rope up and over your head. As you get closer to your feet, jump slightly off the ground so that the rope passes under you.

Tips

  • Don't jump too hard or too high. Instead, try to land softly on your feet. Bend your knees and ankles slightly as you land to reduce impact.
  • Avoid jumping too high. Just jump, or jump as high as necessary.
  • Do not bend your knees too much during the exercise.
