The Jumpless Jump Rope

Jumpless Jump Rope

I been trying to get my bride of 25 years to jump rope without much success, but recently we discovered a new easy way to start jumping rope that doesn't require any expertise. 

Introducing the new Jumpless Jump Rope.  Sounds complicated.  I stumbled across this new rope by wearing out a $2 Walmart vinyl rope right at the contact spot in the middle of the rope.  The rope broke in two, leaving two relatively equal pieces of vinyl rope.

I started jumping with the two broken pieces which still let me feel the whip and the rhythm of the rope but without the dexterity or coordination to physically skip over the rope.  I shared it with my bride and she was delighted that she could now effortlessly jump rope increasing her heart rate, improving her circulation, while improving her fitness. She was doing skips, one legged jumps, double jumps like a real pro, and when the smile came across her face I knew it was something that everyone could do. 

For those of you that always wanted to jump rope and develop a boxer's fitness level give it a try.  Buy a $2 vinyl rope, adjust it to your height by knotting the rope at the handles and then cut it in half. 

You know have a customized one-of-a-kind fitness juggernaut in your hands!

Now let's get to work!
