Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Jump Rope
Start by holding the handles of the jump rope at waist height, with your elbows close to your body and your wrists slightly above your waist.
Begin to swing the rope over your head, using your wrists and forearms to generate the motion rather than your entire arms.
As the rope approaches your feet, jump off the ground using both feet at the same time, just high enough to allow the rope to pass underneath.
Continue the motion, jumping each time the rope comes around, and aim to maintain a steady rhythm for the duration of your workout.
