Can you jump rope?

Post Reply New Topic

I could never jump rope as a kid.

I wasn't good at jump roping, but I can kind of do it. I can't continuously do it though, only for a few swings and then I mess up. lol

Nope. I was not any good at it as my timing was all over the place.

The rope jumps me.

Not really.

I think if I tried jumping with a rope now I'd just end up hanging by my neck.

I could do the solo type very well, with my purple plastic jump rope.

I was average in the type where two people turn the rope, and I had to jump in.

I couldn't do double dutch.

We used to play a game called Jumpsies or Elastics.



I also had a Lemon Twist that I loved.

Not really that good at all.....pretty bad, come to think of it....

I was good at it.

I could only do it slowly otherwise I would end up falling over.

Nope, just ask my ankles.

I dunno. I probably haven't tried for nearly 30 years. But I do have a new skipping rope someone gave me as a gift a couple years ago & so could give it a shot and see sometime. It's probably pretty good exercise.

You can actually buy ropeless skipping ropes. They're basically just two handles and you pretend to jump the nonexistent rope. There's a counter on one of the handles so you can see how many jumps you've done.

jump rope is excellent exercise in general but i've never had the coordination to do it, i never could get both feet to consistently clear the rope and i'd trip and fall.

I could jump the rope if the rope was still. It is that the rope moves is where it is difficult.

Unfortunately not at all.
