Focus Fitness Gear Adjustable Weighted Adult Speed Cable Wire Fitness Jump Rope

The jump rope itself is decent. It was fairly easy to cut the wires to the length I needed. The rope itself doesn't kink, which is nice, though I do wish it was a tad thicker--I've really stung my shins on a couple of occasions.The video and the free e-book are pretty much pointless. As someone who is not at all coordinated, I was hoping for some help in getting a good rhythm going, but the video just shows you how to cut the jump rope to the right length, and the e-book offers exercises but little or no guidance for the uncoordinated on how to actually jump rope without constantly smacking yourself.

For the price this is a great jump rope for crossfit. The only issue I have after using it 3-4 times for double under is the rope itself is a fraction too light to continue momentum through double unders. No matter how fast I speed the rope it won't move as fast as needed due to the weight ratio. It's the only thing I can attribute it to. When I use a more expensive Rogue speed rope I don't have these issues and the Rogue one feels a fraction heavier. All that being said, for $14 it's pretty good. Unless you're participating in the Crossfit games

I have used it two times and I can already tell it is a great product. I'm new to jump roping and still need a lot of practice, but even though I'm not familiar with other jump ropes out there (this was my first one) I can give this product five stars for the following reasons:1 - The rope is super light2 - Super easy to handle3 - It is adjustable so no matter what height you are, you can adjust it accordingly4 - The best of all is the handbook I received after my purchase. It contains about 15 work out sets and they are great. So far I've done two of them.I definitely recommend this product and also recommend jump roping to anyone who would like to burn a lot of calories and tone your body at the same time.

Best jump rope I've tried so far, did not have satisfactory results with the thicker vinyl ones since the "rope" has a memory to it when it's put away and even when hanging ,it was still getting tangled up and annoying to use. I decided to try this one and it is a much better improvement, don't think i'll be needing to look for another jump rope any time soon.-Lightweight.-Ball bearings in handles really make rotation very very smooth .-Very easy to adjust, no tools needed and I like the fact that I don't really need to cut the cable, only optional in my case.-Good value for your money.- Ideal for speed jumping.Can't really think of any negatives so far, will bring them up if ever find any but so far, so good and would buy again/recommend to anyone.

I've never been great at doing any of the fancy stuff, but I do like jumping rope as a standard part of my workout and have had a few different jump-ropes over the years.I'd have to say this is the best I've had to date.It seems extremely durable, and the cable is the perfect weight for me. Light enough to be pretty effortless, but still heavy/stiff enough that it will come around without having to whip it.I may even attempt to up my game and get fancy with the jumping.Some people complained that the set screws could back out, so I put a dab of thread lock on them after I had it adjusted, and they're going nowhere without a screwdriver.I imagine nail polish would work as well.I would absolutely recommend this to a friend.

This is a great jump rope, well worth its reasonable price. Lightweight, compacts down very small to fit in any gym bag, easy to adjust (I haven't had any problems with the thumbscrews loosening so far). One thing I noticed is that with the light weight of the cable it carries very little momentum which makes the jump rope less forgiving. With a heavier cable / rope if you get a bit sloppy on a rotation or two the momentum of the rope will carry it through the next swing. With this jump rope, if you miss a beat the cable will lose momentum and most likely hit your feet. I find I have to work harder with this jump rope than other ropes which is not a bad thing, just something to note.

I'm relatively new to CrossFit and still learning double unders but the ropes at the gym are not necessarily the right length and tend to have kinks. I recently purchased two of this style of jump rope; the other one costing about half as much as this one. This is definitely the best and worth the extra cost. I wondered whether the "suppleness" of the cable was just hype but compared to others it is much more supple and does not kink. I get many fewer "butt lashings" from this rope compared to the others which makes it worth the cost. Plus its just easier to jump over - perhaps because it lays down better when you are jumping it.

I bought this jump rope to work on my calf strength. This rope is very fast and durable. The adjustable clamps are very handy for tuning the rope to the right length for me. I used it for several days. Then when I was comfortable with the length, I clipped off a bit of the excess cable length to reduce the clutter and avoid potential tangles.I would recommend this rope to anyone that wants to get serious. I'm finding that I get a very good cardio workout in about 20 - 30 minutes. It is definitely strengthening up my calfs for running, and I can tell that it does work my stomach muscles.I'm a fan
