Jump Rope Instructions
- This is a rhythmic, athletic motion. There is nothing stiff about jumping rope.
- Always remain on the balls of your feet.
- Jumping rope is about developing a consistent tempo.
- Keep your shoulders loose and legs light.
- Your wrists and hands remain fluid. You are never actively 'gripping' the handles.
*Tips*
- Once proficient, begin incorporating single leg variations.
- Slow is smooth. And smooth is fast.
