Many Crosfitters are struggling with doing the dreaded Double Unders with their jump ropes. Doing Double Unders is simply a matter of getting a rhythm with your jump rope. The proper jump rope is crucial. We recommend the Ultra Speed Rope from BuyJumpRopes.net. It is made specifically for the Double under move. It is light and very fast. Capable of 5-6 jumps a second.

First you will want the jump rope to be no longer than 12' above your head while jumping. Second, start with single jumps and then attempt a double under. Keep your hands just in front of your waist. Do not have your hands extend away from your body. Begin double unders by turning a little harder and jumping a little higher. Learn a rhythm of single jumps with a double under in between the single jumps. Jump, Jump, Jump, double under and repeat. The next step will be attempting two double unders in a row. After that continue trying to increase to 3 then 4 then 5 in a row. As you get to this level of skill you will have the rhythm to continue double unders until you are too fatigued to continue.

Double Unders are a killer workout. Increases vertical jump, agility and cardiovascular fitness.
