Thank you for this video! 🙏 I applied these tips today and they made a huge impact! I was able to jump for a longer period without tripping and your tips made me more mindful of my form! I started jumping rope a few weeks ago and I look forward to learning more. Subbed! ❤
Nice! Love to hear when people see immediate results. Good job applying what you learned🤜
Thanks for the support!

Who knew I would need to watch a jump rope tutorial...Great videos...Thank you😎
Haha who knew I would've ever been making them! They can definitely help in learning a lot of things you would never think about starting out and skills.
Glad you found it helpful 👍
🤣 I was saying the same thing
@@Noviilove 😂😂😂
Lol...right!
Same here just ordered one
Literally was doing all of them
😗
So did I bud! You fail before you win🤙
This is THE best beginner video to address trip ups. I didn’t even realize I was doing these issues
You have to be able to identify what is going wrong 👍 Glad it helped!
This was absolutely perfect! I stopped jumping rope (after a relatively short period) because regardless of how many articles and tutorials I watched, I could never identify why I was failing. After watching your video, I know exactly where I was going wrong and exactly how to rectify it!! Thanks man :)
Yes! I love hearing this! Identifying the causes allows you to make the proper adjustment. Welcome back to the rope game Michael!🤜🤙
how did it go?
@@HannyDart3 REPLIES
The slow motion helps to see where the rope trips up on your feet. Great breakdown!
It's crazy though. Many jumpers think that the trip up is a jumping or leg issue, but it's nearly always a wrist or arm issue. Great stuff man!
💯 Yes, you gotta understand how your hand positioning affects the rope. That's when you can really start moving forward and decreasing the amount of trip ups👍
Finally! Someone who lets us know what we might be doing wrong. This is brilliant. It fixed me almost immediately. I’m more aware of what happens when I tire. I am 72 though and my hands move out when I tire out. Your video definitely helped me go longer without always bloody catching my ankles. Thank you.
Awesome! Don't worry, you're not alone. When anyone tires regardless of the sport, that is when the errors start to happen more frequently.
Glad it helped!👍
Ok first of all you being 72 jumping rope is amazing and encouraging!
@@Jump15official3 REPLIES
Finally a video that explains and visually shows common mistakes in form. Thanks!
Glad it helped!🤜
This is the first video that has actually dropped several things to look out for other than rope length. For all I know, I'm doing them all. But now I know what to look for. Thanks.
Awesome, glad it helped!
This just discussed all the things I was doing wrong and all this time I thought it was something to do with my foot or shoes but it was my wrists all along. Thank you so much!
Yes!!!!! Glad it helped🤜
Same lmao i thought one of my legs is longer or something
My form always detiorates as soon as I get tired so I take a break then try again! I know it can be frustrating though haha
For sure. Make sure to identify what is breaking down so you can put extra focus in that area👍
Finally. It took me 7-8 videos before I found a video that was clear and thorough and actually helped me troubleshoot what was happening. I’m excited to try to correct it with your tips.
Sweet! Hope it helps!
Omg thanks, I was spreading my arms, I looked like so stupid doing it 😂
Live and learn! 🤙
I'm so glad found this tutorial, just started jump rope today and I managed 3 jumps ! so much help needed...
Patience is key and know that your not alone! We all started there. Nail down the fundamentals of form and technique and you'll start seeing progress which will drive you onward👍
This is very useful information! I have the drifting hand, hands moving forward, and stiff wrist! Thanks for giving tips on how I can counter them! I will try them out tomorrow!
It's all about identifying the flaws and then focusing on fixing them. Step 1 complete! 🤜
I was doing two mistake you address here, thanks!
Glad it helped! Good job at identifying it🤘
the best video out here, honestly it starts to get to you bc it feels like im the only one having these problems. All the videos just say don't spread your arms, which I'm already trying to do, but you explain all the types of problems and how to solve them. I hope to get better with it. Thank u
Happy to hear it was helpful 🤙
This guy is so motivational in the comments
Edit: SEE!
spotted what i did wrong. I will most definitely practice more
Nice! 🤘
I’m doing all of those things! I was getting so frustrated because I couldn’t work out what was wrong! Thank you! 🙏
Perfect! Glad it helped!🤙
this was actually very helpful! I was getting seriously hurt by the rope, cause it hit me harddd on legs, arms and booty. but focusing on my hands positioning really helps!!
Yes! It makes a world of difference as you focus on keeping that form and technique locked in🤘
Thank you, i just started for the first time ever and i was getting frustrated. Super helpful
👍
Oh man this was awesome! I'm new to the jump rope, but I find it crucial in my training so I'm catching on pretty fast. Nevertheless, tips like yours always aid me in sharpening new skills. Great upload and thanks 🙏🏼
Keep working hard! 🤙
all this time I blamed my rope for being too short (it used to get caught in my hair) or my bad footwork (i have leg problems). turns out my hands go wide or too forward
Now you know what to look for and work on👍 Keep at it!
Literally making everyone of these mistakes. Thanks mate!
Hope it helps you out!
This is literally me! Thank you for this video. I recently got into skip ropes and I'm still learning 😊
It takes time so be patient and have fun!
NIce video sir. Yeah, I think i have all of those fails except the "hands drifting out" one...got tht nailed. One stiff wrist is probaly the biggest one for me though, it helps (me) to skip slowly at first, track the circles it makes and warm the wrist up before I begin to change speed and play around.
Just the video I was looking for. I had to record myself to see why I was tripping so much. Think it's a mix of a few things but now I know. Cheers
Just what I needed. Often wonder what is causing my problems. Now have some ideas to check out. Thank you.
🤙
Super helpful! I keep getting tangled up and frustrated. Time to check my form.
Always be checking that form👍
I am definitely working on being symmetrical. Need to make sure to master that basic before moving on.
👍
Thanks so much man. I remember jumping rope back in school and I was ok no problem. Few decades later, I pick up one up and was ok like riding a bike however, 30-50 skips in I trip again and again getting frustrated. Turned to TH-cam and found this. I needed this video as I just wanna get a bit of cardio done during lockdown. I'll grab the body length mirror and take it outside, skip in front of it to see if I can identify the problem a little better. Much love from Melbourne Australia 🤙
Right on man! Hope you guys are doing ok down there! Hope the video helps!
Dear Brother,
I was doing the two mistakes you indicated in the video. For the past two days I was doing this mistake and tripping. Thanks for the video who I saw at the right time. I will correct those mistakes and enjoy jump rope workout everyday.
Right on Antony👍 Figure out your common errors and keep practicing!
Thank you... By the way, love your green, nicely manicured lawn.👍🏻
Thank you🤙
My 2 cents as a Newbie here. GREAT VIDEO!
I wish ALL beginner training videos stressed jumping in front of a mirror early and often! I have the 1/4lb and 1/2lb cross ropes w AMP and have been practicing for about a month, nearly everyday. I did the cross rope 14-Day challenge and found it too advanced and all the footwork made for a lot of frustration cuz I couldn’t even do the basic jump consistently. Yesterday I saw this video so today I jumped in front of a mirror and recorded. Tho it FELT like I was symmetrical, the mirror and recording told otherwise- it was so obvious my form was not symmetrical and my arms drifted… I had no idea! It was a game changer and my practice today was GREAT!! As I said, I wish ALL beginner training videos explained what causes tripping and stressed jumping in front of a mirror when you start jumping rope! I’ll be skipping more “beginner” challenges and doing “free” jumping (in front of a mirror and recording to watch slow-mo) until I nail the basic jump… and possibly all the other “beginner” foot work … before moving on to “Beginner” challenges.
Yes! Awesome dude! Good job putting the tips to practice. You'll be shocked at how fast you'll start improving as you begin to nail consistency in form and technique 🤙🤘
Happy Jumping!
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Only vid that explains how im struggling starting! Gonna try all weekend following this advice!
Right on! Hope it helps out!
Great video man, very nuanced tips and help. Just so frustrating when you keep tripping and out of ideas to why, so hella thumbs up for the video👍👍😃
Glad it helped brotha! 🤜
I failed, failed and failed, until I show your video now getting better. Thanks
👍 glad it helped!
This is awesome. I've just begun learning to jump rope and am now going to video myself so I can see which one (or ones) that are the culprit for me tripping constantly. Thanks so much.
Awesome! Just remember we all suck when we start and you're going to see improvement most times you pick up the rope. Most of all have fun!🤙
Totally agree I stink at it big time lol but going to try again 😉
My face while watching this video: 😗
Totally doing all of these. 😂
Ya! Get it!🤜
😆
Another great video. Very useful tips, thank you
Very welcome! 🤜
Looks like pretty sound advice. Just watching where the curve of your rope is can help you make adjustments in real time
For sure👍
Thanks Kyle. Very informative. Your videos are very helpful as I prepare to start jumping when my Crossrope GetFit2020 set arrives. After watching your video here I’m thinking I’ll get a big mirror to watch for these issues to avoid as many trip ups as possible. Thanks again, and keep up the great channel!
Appreciate it bud. A mirror can be so helpful!
your enthusiasm is contagious! I appreciate the emphasis on form and technique. Just recovered from a bad injury and despite my body doing better my mind has been in a funky state after not exercising for almost 4 years. If that injury taught me anything its patience so Ive patiently been waiting for the simple exercise I can do with a smile on my face and I think this is it. I'm going to have to start slow but this might just be it 😎
Sorry to hear you've been dealing with that for so long. Definitely ease your way back into working out.
What was the injury?
@@Jump15official Thank you! I tore my Achilles in 5 locations but they weren't full ones so I was able to (very slowly) heal from them. I wore a boot for two years, paid for physical therapy out of pocket, the whole shebang. I can't do jumping Jack's but my PT said jumping rope would be fine so long as I ease into it. I've been slowly lifting light weights and swimming to strengthen my legs but now that its winter in NYC, I dont have an indoor pool that's practical to get to. So now, jump-rope! 😎
@@RebelHippyProductions oh man, that is brutal. I hope it continues to heal fast for you!🤜🙏
First tip already helped me thanks so much subbed and liked
Nice! You're welcome bud🤜 Glad it helped!
Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness I’m always stumbling thinking it’s my chins thanks🤛dude
Best tutorial I have ever seen
Thanks Ashi, glad it helped!
1:33 this happens with me most of the times.
Focus on making that fix so you can begin to eliminate that error🤙
This is a great video! I will pay more attention to my form when I jump rope. Will check out the rest of your videos. Just started jumping rope. I would love to able to jump for 5mins for basic form. Last year I hurt my ankle a bit when I tried to jump after I worked at my pizzeria all day, did not pay attention. Too fast too soon. My ankle is better now, want to build my stamina on jumping rope. It isn’t as easy as it seems. I am doing 50jumps each day for 2 weeks. Today is my second day.
Glad to hear you've healed up. Yes take it slow and listen to your body. You'll be surprised how much better you get over time. Always practice with intention!
Great video! Really concise for identifying issues for beginners. Thanks a lot!
So glad it helped!🤜
That’s so crazy ! I used the correct form and was like “wow that was easy n fast” *as I did 100 at a time” but whenever I didn’t pay attention to my wrist Yerba trip trip trip pmo 🤦♀️ but so glad I know now 👍😁
Glad it helped!🤜
these are very useful tips, thank you so much❤
Glad it helped!
Great stuff bro. Been there, done it, tripped while learning new tricks😅
Have to go thru it to get better. 🤙
@@Jump15official yeah, well said.😅
Thanks for the tips. I'm new to jump rope so will definitely help me out
🤙
Big help man!
Thank you for making this vid !
🤙
Only Informative Video with these aspects here identified my ✌️ two mistakes, hell i didn't even know there could be a problem with forward hand movement or one stiff wrist really big help for describing these things so simply Thanks a lot ♥
Glad they helped man! 🤙
@@Jump15official Thanks a lot for replying Do you have any more suggestions for helping with stiff wrist
@@exactscallion7 sorry missed this comment. Really it comes down to focusing on rotating your wrists in small circles. If you have a stiff wrist, then exaggerate the movement even more. This will help engrain the habit.
I just started jump roping last month and I get really frustrated when I trip. Thanks for uploading this, I think I do all of those mistakes mentioned that's why i trip a lot lol.
It's all about finding your weak points and fixing them over time. Keep practicing and you will get there!
Dam I found the error of my jump roping lol I put it forward because I like the sound of the whip on the ground, but now I see I put it too far forward when I'm tired. Thanks my man, its hard to see from crappy self-record angles when you don't know what your looking for.
Glad it helped! I would recommend snagging an inexpensive tripod for your phone. It will provide much better angles for review👍
Kyle that is really awesome guide.
However I've got something important to add. The imbalance on the hand positioning (one higher and one lower) is a extremely difficult problem to fix.
I suffer from it. My left and right arm do not feel equal when doing something like pushup or skipping. When I pushup, usually my right arm is little farther. When jumping the left is much lower. I believe it all started after I suffered from a little injury on the left arm. The problem is this dissymmetry feels normal. When jumping if I manually keep both arms same, it feels that they aren't equal and I trip up or gradually they change the position. Even when I do pushup, same problem. I don't even know which arm is weaker.
Have you got any solution? I jump ripe outdoors without any mirror. This problem is very annoying and hard to solve due to physical mascular imbalance. I've been able to reduce the degree by shortening my rope considerably.
I know what you mean. I still have a slight imbalance due to separating my left shoulder in college. You may have to live with some imbalance due to injury, otherwise it's trying to make an adjustment and sticking with it as best you can over time to develop a new natural position. Things like this just take time and concious effort. If you can get access to a mirror, I think that is the best way to fix these types of things because you get real time feedback.
Also depending on the injury, maybe you need to work on strengthening that side some. If it is weak it may be allowing it to drop lower than the other side. That's just a thought as I am no doctor.
Yep it is defently annoying tripping up... wen I get tired it happens a lot more , I will be taking you're tips to ❤ , great video as always 👍 keep up the good work! Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Thanks Dirk. Yes, when you fatigue you will always trip more. That is a good time to really focus in on good form. It will help you build your mental focus while exhausted👍
@@Jump15official I will try to focus better , and let you know If I get better results , thanks for the reaction !!
Thanks for this great information.
Hope you were able to identify and fix some errors! 🤙
Two years late but, excellent video. Thank you 🙏
Never too late and You're very welcome!
Excellent video and explanations 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Walter! Glad it was helpful🤙
Great video.
But, I keep 'whipping' my left hand when I trip up on the rope.
I've looked into all the obvious reasons, but not noticing any of them.
I can't judge why I am doing this.
I'd appreciate your opinion on this.
Tag me in a video of you jumping on IG or send a DM on there. I would be happy to take a look and see if we can get you past the issue. @jump15_official
Thanks this will surely help me
🤙
I learnt a lot.. so, Thanks a lot.
Good to hear!🤙
Your video was so informative 👏 👌 thank you
Glad it helped!
Beginner here. 😂 thanks for the recommendations!
Welcome!
great suggestions , no way near your level but I am able to skip by barely getting off the ground, but my rope just got broken, i need a new rope, waiting for this lock down to end so that I could buy a good quality rope
A good rope makes all the difference!
Nice video. In learned a lot from this. I can’t jump rope to save my life. I take Krav Maga, boxing, Maui Thai and I still can’t jump rope lol. I brought me one and want to add it to my exercise. With anything you have to learn how to do it no matter how easy it is.
For sure man. A rope with more weight in it will help you learn the timing👍
I can only jump less than 10, this is a great video for us beginner. Thank You.
You're so welcome!
Thanks for the tips dude
👍🤙
Frustrating when the rope goes between the feet -- I had figured thst I was hanging one foot (toes) lower than the other and hooking the rope. I gotta remember these wrist/arm anomalies and compare :-)
Really gr8. Loved it.
What was the most helpful tip for you?
I've been doing the bounce step without much trouble but as soon as I started doing more intermediate exercises, I kept tripping. I'll try to see if these apply to those as well. Thanks for the video.
When learning new skills start at a slower pace and get the technique down. Then gradually start adding speed to them👍🤙
Thank u soo much. No one explained these
👍🤙
Very helpful, thank you
🤜🤙
Thank you bro
Thanks, I think this will help, appreciate it!
😫 I have all the problems and worst of all, it manifested into a habit. Trying to correct it requires a lot of conscious effort and it's really taking the fun out of skipping since I start to trip even more while trying to adjust due to unfamiliarity and slight discomfort.
Everything worthwhile takes effort. I had to overcome bad habits when I started as well. It can be grueling, but hang in there and keep practicing the right stuff and you will get thru it🤜💪
Thank You
WELL DONE, AS USUAL J15...IT IS MORE OF A PROCESS FOR MYSELF NOW THAN 30 YRS AGO WHEN I WAS 185; NOW 55 AND 264, 10% BDY FAT BUT DEFINETELY A DIFFERENCE IN THE APPROACH THESE DAYS. ALWAYS THUMBS UP FROM ME! :)
Thank you bud! Gotta roll with the punches and find ways to work around.
Appreciate your support!🤙
I have the get fit from Crossrope. I find myself tripping on the quarter pound rope more than any other rope
It's common to trip on the lightest rope. Just be conscious of your tempo and slow it down a little bit more with the 1/4 lb rope while you develop the feel for it👍
Best video on form
🤙 Glad it helped
Thx for replying comments
I want be a able to skip properly I did it a lot when I was a kid 🧒 but your skipping is different then I was a kid hahaha yours is better the foot work is what I need to learn as well!!!!
Check out my footwork series!
Jump Rope Footwork Series: th-cam.com/play/PLI1VxNLZ5yMMWnAMBxQhnv4QzGkmNHl-O.html
Thanks skipping with you !!!
I can confirm this. I've started jump roping last week and the thing that causes me trip the most is because I'm not symmetrical. Either one arm is drifting to side and above or both. So I fixed it and now I don't trip that much! In fact, on my 3rd day I did 110 consecutive jumps without tripping.
Right on! Love to hear when people are breaking through walls. Well done!!!
@@Jump15official thank you so much! And keep up the great work :)
I'm beginner jump rope I stuff from all of this time to focus on correcting it all
It's all about learning what works and what doesn't. Identify the causes of trips and do your best to eliminate those.
this was so helpful!! thank you very much :)
👍🤙
Thanks for informative tutorial
Great video, and others as well. Any suggestions for people with one fused wrist? I have to compensate the wrist being locked with elbow and shoulder movement...
Unfortunately you don't have much of a choice. Elbow would be the next best, but try to keep the movement small. You may be able to drive the rope speed a bit more with your non fused wrist.
@@Jump15official Thanks for reply. Basic jumping is going ok. Thanks to this video I concluded that fused wrist might be the cause of tripping.
Ugh I was avoiding looking up tutorials out of pride but its been 2 weeks now and I still mess up 😪 thanks for this! It appears I have a drifting arm to maintain!!!
Trust me, you don't want to try and figure things out on your own. It takes sooo much longer.
Glad you found your issue!
Excellent. What's the best way to measure rope length for skipping? If I stand on the middle of the rope, where should it reach on my upper body? Cheers
I show rope sizing in this video: th-cam.com/video/UbMqrcgCeag/w-d-xo.html
THANK YOU, FOR THESE VERY HELPFUL POINTERS!!!!!!!
Something I was searching for ..thanks bro
🤙🤜
Great information, thank you....!!
Thanks a lot 💚💛❤️
I have to jump rope bare foot at gymnastics and it keep smacking my feet and HURTS SO BAD!! Thanks for this
👍😉
Needed this! Great vid. Very helpful
Glad it helped!🤜
I fixed my wrist from getting tired too fast by only moving it upwards and downwards and relying on elbow movement while keeping it stuck to my sides
This may handicap you down the road as you will want to build that endurance. It will also limit your rope speed capabilities so I would encourage you to utilize the full motion of small wrist circles and gain that endurance and strength over time👍
Try and get those elbows pointed backwards and not into your sides as well.
Keep at it! It takes time to dial it all in🤙
Thanks I have a daughter who was bad at this now she is a professional 😀
🤘
