You guys are the reason I started my jump roping journey, because of you and your videos I lost 60 pounds! I was always struggling with my weight for so long as a child and now I’m an adult who finally beat obesity! I tried everything. Until I stumbled upon the JRD channel I don’t know where I would be without if I didn’t find u guys. I’ve been a consistent and dedicated jump roper for 8 months now almost 9. I’ve learned SO MUCH FROM YOUR CHANNEL, very grateful to have such inspiring hardworking people like u and Dan. Farewell Brandon gonna miss u🤝❤️
I remember when you were ZDF. All my best to you and yours! You made such a difference. It's not a breakup, rather it's the highest expression of brotherly love.
I don't usually comment on videos, but I have to say this. My fitness journey started with this channel. It was only after getting a jump rope and doing your follow along workouts that I started to see actual results and for that I will always be grateful. Thank you for creating this community. I wish you success in your future endeavors man.
Its a bittersweet news, thanks to you and dan i lost 28 pounds and im really appreciated you guys for that. I wish you the best in this new adventure!!! Best positive energys! Greetings from Perú!!
You guys got me jumping, grabbed my cross ropes a year ago and i’ve not stopped since. You got me off my arse and helped me get fitter and leaner. All the best for the future Brandon and i’m happy you and Dan are still friends!
I came across your channel at the start of the pandemic and stay-at-home orders. I was gaining massive weight, felt disorganized and depressed. You folks have no idea how much your channel basically kept me alive and going in a cesspool of negativity on social media and the news surrounding the pandemic. I want to thank you. Good luck to you in your next move.
I'd like to thank both of you guys and give a special dedication to Brandon. From France. Over the last four years, I have started and then regularly trained thanks to your video. Always the same, from a sunny training on a tennis court, sunglasses there, bringing the sun into my apartment. It drumbeats my daily routine to work out whatever my moon. After a recent three months break, I have resumed my rope training, still connected to the JRD network, making four times in a row the 15mn work out. Turning on the appropriate music, the mix is then ready to make the rope turning and turning. Needless to say, big thanks.
I started skipping in 2020 during the pandemic. JRD got me interested in skipping because I'd done it before and it was an excellent form of exercise that really helped me to to tone up and keep fit. I am still doing the thing today on a regular basis. Thank you for inspiring me.
Thank you for being a part of my life's journey....I've been following you guys for so long you guys feel like family...lol. Best of luck to the both of you.
I just want to say thank you as you are one of the people who inspired me to be fit. I did that for self improvement and to me healthier. I watched most of your videos to get more HIIT exercises involving jump rope. Good luck on your new journey, Brandon! Thank you again for being an inspiration to all of us, your followers. 😊❤
I still remember the first video I watched from your channel, and I almost quit jump rope after following it, I thought it was very difficult, but you guys motivated me, and now almost 3 years later, I still jump rope, thank you man, thank you very much, good luck to your next journey, I know that no matter what path you choose, you will be successful, and again thank you
I came across your videos a few years ago and it was your passion for jumping rope that got me to purchase such amazing ropes. I enjoy jumping rope so much with the cross ropes you guys use. Thank you for your inspiration and good luck on your different paths.
Thank you, thank you, and thank you once again for all you’ve done for the community you created. I started jumping rope because of you guys, during lock down when so much was happening in my life alongside the pandemic. From you, I learnt how jumping rope was effective exercise, as well as a form of meditation. Jump rope is now my go to exercise and I actually enjoy it all because of you two. You deserve all the best and I wish it all for you. Thank you!
Power to your decision, Brandon! I'll continue following JRD as that is what got me into jumping and truly enjoying it immensely after all these years. I'm gonna look you up too and check your new path out. In the meantime, all the best in your pursuit of your passion, mate.
Brandon, you are absolutely incredible! It brings me so much joy that our shared passion for jump rope allowed us to connect, and I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to meet you in person. Please continue doing amazing things, and know that I will be cheering you on every step of the way on your journey.
I remember when I found this channel while we were in lockdown. I was happy to find a sport that I could do at home while having fun. Trust me, it never crossed my mind that it could be jump rope and I'm grateful for that gift. Thank you for the dedication and energy you brought to the videos, truly wish you the best.
I wish you all the best Brandon. I bought my first Cross Rope set back in 2017 cause of your videos. since then I bought 2 more sets including the weighted ropes, I've learned tricks from watching your videos, and jumping rope is part of my daily routine. Honestly, you and Dan made some positive changes in my life and I thank you. Good luck on your new path and DO THE THING.
Both of you guys have taught me how to jump rope. I can't express how much I appreciate your channel. Now, jumping rope is a part of my life, a part of me! I take one with me when I travel. What's even better? I can do some SPICY thangs with the rope: Crossovers, double unders, speed sprints, flow, shuffle, charlie brown etc etc. I get lot of compliments on my jump rope skills and I always refer them to your channel (and crossrope too because it IS the best rope). I NEVER believed I could reach an expert level but you guys taught me all the tips, tricks, and methods to having a healthy relationship with failure through exercise, particularly jiu jitsu kettlebells and jumping rope which allowed me to take my fitness to the next level Thank you both for everything you do!
You seriously don’t understand how much you helped me I have been watching you for 5 years. I lot 100 pound because of you guys and Crossrope a now at 36 after my first pregnancy I have already lost 17 pounds in a month thankyou so much!!!!! You changed my life!!!
Brendan, You and the zen dudes inspired me to start jumping 5 years ago.....exactly this day but 5 years ago! Thank You so much for being a part of My transformation, i've Lost 16 kilos since and feel better than ever !!! I Will miss You , but i'm happy for You !!! Thanks thanks thanks
I will miss you Bran, you were always an inspiration to me, you were very instrumental in my jump rope journey, I owe my jump rope journey to this channel and you, I am honestly short of words right now but I have always considered you guys as my teachers and gurus, you have all my respects in this world, I pray you stay healthy and happy forever, wherever you are 🙏
Brandon, wow, all I can say is: thank you. You made of me a man I never thought I could be. You changed my life and my body shape and I wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Thank you to both of you and I'm excited to see what both of you will build next! Life is like jump rope: it's all about the bounce!
I'm feeling a little sad and yet happy and grateful. I'm sad we're now at Jump Rope Dude, as I loved the chemistry between you and Dan. I've gotten so much from your videos and it was this channel that inspired me to start my 5-6 day/week jump rope practice (which I am a year into and I totally love!). I'm happy that you're following your heart and doing what lights you up. So, while you'll be missed, I have no doubt you're going to set the world on fire doing what you love. I'm so grateful for all of the knowledge, inspiration, and brilliance that you've shared. I've benefitted so much. I wish you all good things for the future. And I'm excited to see all the awesomeness Dan has in store for us. Thank you Brandon! You're awesome!
Wanted to say once again, thank you Brandon for everything you and Dan have done for this community, I know the channel probably didn’t go the way you thought it would but I’m so glad you’re following your passion, whenever I’m stressed I’ll be watching one of your follow along meditation videos, i can say with confidence that discovering your TH-cam channel completely changed my fitness mindset for the better (I lost 35 lbs btw so thank you for teaching me how to jump rope) and I wish you luck ! You’ll always be the zen dude master

Sad to see you go. Started the crossrope journey back with the Zen Dude fitness . I remember watching your video and that's what got me into rope jumping. Bought 2 sets of crossrope and never looked back. Thank you for inspiring me and many others. ❤️
Sad to see you go, Brendon. You have your passion and you must run with it. I'm glad that Dan I continuing with JRD, as I was only told about JRD in October 2022! But good luck and I hope your mind health venture appears on TH-cam. Peace and love.
Thank you so much - could not have got through the pandemic without you. I jumped for 365 days straight in 2022! I wish you nothing but the best for the future
@@JumpRopeDudes I still jump but I have been focusing on Zwift as I am trying to join a Road Cycling Team this season ... Jump Rope has helped me lose 28lbs and develop calf strength that I have never had before ... it's also helped my skateboarding ... I have more pop! - which is saying something at 43 years old
Very happy for you. I first started with ZDF. All I can say is thank you. I'm very glad to hear that you both understand that friends support each other seeking their passion. Sometimes it's hard to separate but love and support make the reunions so much better. Good luck, I'll be looking for you.
Thank you for introducing me to the jumping rope lifestyle. I found you when the lockdown stroke and you helped me to get the most of it by showing the the fundamentals of jumping rope and also some cool tricks. Been keeping jumping since then and getting more fit and healthier, all because of you. So, God bless and keep on influencing positively in everybody's life.
All I can say is thank you, dude. Found yall around covid, and I'm finding ya again after a hiatus. Thank you really, you helped me lose weight and start feeling good. I got to get back to doing the thing every day. But just know you have helped many many people, and we wont forget you.
started watching you in covid. was going through a heartbreak and you helped me to learn jump rope that eventually helped me to become better not just physically but mentally too. you are one of those few teachers that ill always remember. god bless you. stay blessed. all love from india! keep changing lives !
I started my jump rope journey about 3 months from you guys at JRD. I'm loving it and it's become a habit. Loving my fitness results and jump roping. Hate to see you go. Thank you for co-creating this community🙏🏾 Wishing you best in all your future endeavors!!
Y’all the reason why I started and love jump roping I can’t go a day without it now I just want to thank you for the transition u gave me after my long hard covid and diabetes situation I went thru y’all actually are a big reason why I reversed my diabetes I just want to thank you and the jump rope dudes god bless you on your new journey
2020/01/02 I broke wrist snowboarding. I didn't want to lose fitness so I trained at home and eventually came onto your films. I did jump rope thing for a while, quit alcohol, went for therapy, and started doing triathlons. I don't jump rope anymore, but you were part of my new life path and I'm grateful for this. We all have to move on, it's just the beginning.
Thank you for all you have contributed to the JRD community. I love your ethos and appreciate that you are staying true to yourself. I would love to get an update on your next business adventure and get info about how to participate in that, either as a client or a subscriber, depending on the business model.
I can't believe that many years have passed so quick ... I was in the 1st winter JRD weight loss competition ... I clearly remember ZDF and those sick scenes... thank you for everything brother
In 2017 I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I was studying and working, so I was struggling to find some sort of movement to treat this new illness complicated to understand at the time. I was really confused and scared. I remember the day I found your videos and I felt like they were the exact thing I was looking for. I must have watched dozens of them in the same day. The way you talked about exercise and losing weight with SIMPLICITY at the core in such a friendly, casual and even funny way. Then, I started listening to all of your old podcast episodes and I began to change the way I see health, fitness, mindfulness, discipline, motivation… Something far beyond jump rope as a tool. You guys changed my life, and even changed me and the way I see life. Even though we never met, I see you like the friends who were with me through a very difficult time in my life and helped get up and keep going. I’m so grateful I found your content years ago. You are amazing people. Best of luck Brandon!
Hey Brandon, I am speechless. You are such an inspiration. I knew you were a good guy right from the first time I saw JRD videos.How bout making a guest appearance once in awhile? Good luck and God Bless you and your family!
Maaaaaaan!!! What a smile it has brought to my face knowing you are both pursuing your passions to the fullest. I’m 20 years old, and you two set me on the right path when I decided to start taking things seriously. I still have saved a purchased Zen Dude Fitness 4 week challenge from over 6 years ago!!! Never looking back now. Thank you both. Wishing nothing but the best for you. You will always be cemented as a chapter in my life. Thank you.
Dude, even my mom remembers you guys hahaha! If you are ever down in Miami, hit me up and I’d love to treat you to a a lunch or something :) 👍🏻 Much love.
I jump, but i meditate everyday too. In fact, i look at jumping rope as meditation in motion. Being fit has to include mind, body, and soul. I wish more people see that. 🧠 💪🙏
I am sorry to hear this, you guys have inspired me to incorporate skipping into my regular workout. Good luck with where you go next, I wish you all the best and thank you man, you are a, a true Jump Rope Dude. Regards and good luck.
I love your channel, you guys got me into the jump rope and cross rope. Before I began watching your content I would always just do machine cardio at the gym and you got me back into jumping rope. Thank you!
I’ve always been active. Gym wasn’t my thing but then I found your guys 5 years ago. Thank you so much for the inspiration and good times. Good luck on your new chapter and don’t forget it to do the thing!!!!
Hey Brandon. You and Dan are the reason I started jumping rope. When the lockdown started I ended my membership at the local gym. Working in the aviation industry I suddenly saw myself having too much of a sedentary life. I decided to commit to an even more disciplined life during the pandemic. I started watching a few fitness videos on youtube, but after a week or two I felt I needed to level up. I remembered watching a video explaining the benefits of jumping rope, but I came across two issues: I didn't know how to jump rope and I didn't own one. I called my father to know if he still owned his and if I could borrow it. After a positive response all I had to do was learn to jump. I searched jump rope tutorials on youtube and the first video that I got from the results was Dan teaching the basics of a basic jump on top of a parking lot. Fast forward to the present, here I am, still working as a flight attendant, but always with my two crossrope sets in my luggage. Thank you for your "presence" during all training sessions at home. Best of luck to your life and project. Greetings from Portugal. Do the Thing
I got body goals because of you guys...I had tried everything but would stop after six month but since i discover you guy and started doing your work outs it has worked 2 years jumping rope 5 days a week....Thank You so Much Brandon Will you all the best ....Am excited to see what Dan has in store for us
Sadly I had to stop jumpinig for around 3 years after getting sick. Now that I'm getting back to jumping it's sad to see the guys with the biggest influence on my fitness changed. Look luck in the future and thanks for the memories and the help to love jump rope.
Be proud of you for chaging so many lives!!!Be proud for teaching so many people how important is having a healty life!!!!You are an AMAIZING person and may God lead you to all the best roads in life and always take care of you an your family because you DESERVE it!!!BIG THANK YOU
You guys inspired me to start jumping as something to do when the weather was too bad to run, but I feel in love with jump rope and keep it in my routine. It's put a spring in my running step again. Thank you, good luck to you.
Wishing you the best Brandon. You will definitely be missed. Also I am sure that our brother Dan gonna take care of the JRD community very well. Lots of love to you and your family. #respect #love
You have been fabulous. I started watching 2 years ago and your jumping programs have changed me in a positive light. I’m feeling great. Looks are in the eyes of the beholder but I went from 177 pounds to 140 in a year. From size 12 to a 2/4. I’m now 48! I just got my ropeless Crossrope pack and I see muscles I never thought possible. You both have meant so much to so many people. I want to thank you. I wish you much luck and happiness and hope to see you on the fitness circuit. 🌷
Thank you Bran and Dan! Found this channel in 2018, then re-found it during the pandemic when my gym closed. Even though my gym has been open for a couple years now, I haven't been back because I haven't NEEDED to go back. I bought a set of weights and a bench, and I jump outdoors. Best fitness choice I've made pretty much my entire life.
Best of luck, Brando! You guys were some of the first that the algorithm sent my way when this flabby dad was looking for a conduit to enjoyable fitness. Since then, I've used jump rope to launch into meaningful fitness and even my own channel. Both of you have definitely contributed to my own positive relationship with fitness. Thanks again and I hope you all the best in mental performance coaching.
Thanks Brandon. You and Dan have been great coaches and someone to look up to. The fact that you have taken the time to make this video and explain the background story is just another testament of your great character. I’m sure you will do well in your mental performance business. And I’m sure I’ll be here for the great content the Dan will put out.

2020/01/02 I broke wrist snowboarding. I didn't want to lose fitness so I trained at home and eventually came onto your films. I did jump rope thing for a while, quit alcohol, went for therapy, and started doing triathlons. I don't jump rope anymore, but you were part of my new life path and I'm grateful for this. We all have to move on, it's just the beginning.
Glad you had such a great experience with us. Hope to see you come back and jump rope with us again!!
All the best, Brandon. I've followed along on many a video led be you over the years. Take care and I hope you might come back and guest occasionally.
Appreciate you brooo!

Jump rope every day!!! Ty so much for the inspiration, and I wish you the best in your new endeavors 😊
Farewell. Been following since you were ZDF. I am one of the participants of the one minute criss cross challenge years ago. Clocked 91 per minute.
I can't believe that many years have passed so quick ... I was in the 1st winter JRD weight loss competition ... I clearly remember ZDF and those sick scenes... thank you for everything brother
Thanks for being a part of it! JRD continues on, do the thing! 💪🏻
Thank you for your explanation.
Your journey will be amazing as you have love and passion going forward.
In 2017 I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I was studying and working, so I was struggling to find some sort of movement to treat this new illness complicated to understand at the time. I was really confused and scared. I remember the day I found your videos and I felt like they were the exact thing I was looking for. I must have watched dozens of them in the same day. The way you talked about exercise and losing weight with SIMPLICITY at the core in such a friendly, casual and even funny way. Then, I started listening to all of your old podcast episodes and I began to change the way I see health, fitness, mindfulness, discipline, motivation… Something far beyond jump rope as a tool.
You guys changed my life, and even changed me and the way I see life. Even though we never met, I see you like the friends who were with me through a very difficult time in my life and helped get up and keep going. I’m so grateful I found your content years ago. You are amazing people.
Best of luck Brandon!
Thank you for everything Brandon. I started jump rope with your videos and I will continue to watch while I workout.
Fantastic!
Thabks SO much for all the work you did for JRD and me personally!! I wish you the best always in any and all ventures you have! I love you B! ❤
heck ya. appreciate you bro!
Hey Brandon, I am speechless. You are such an inspiration. I knew you were a good guy right from the first time I saw JRD videos.How bout making a guest appearance once in awhile? Good luck and God Bless you and your family!
Maaaaaaan!!! What a smile it has brought to my face knowing you are both pursuing your passions to the fullest. I’m 20 years old, and you two set me on the right path when I decided to start taking things seriously. I still have saved a purchased Zen Dude Fitness 4 week challenge from over 6 years ago!!! Never looking back now. Thank you both. Wishing nothing but the best for you. You will always be cemented as a chapter in my life. Thank you.
awwww dude. appreciate you sooo much!
Dude, even my mom remembers you guys hahaha! If you are ever down in Miami, hit me up and I’d love to treat you to a a lunch or something :) 👍🏻
Much love.
Good luck man. I have been here since ZDF and grateful to have you guys help guide my fitness journey.
Thank you for inspiring us! God bless on your New journey brother. Hope to meet you guys one day
JRD is the reason why I started to jump rope, you will be miss.
Thank you for all the videos, and good luck
Greetings from chile
Stick with us... we're not going anywhere!
Goodluck man
Will always remember you !
I jump, but i meditate everyday too. In fact, i look at jumping rope as meditation in motion. Being fit has to include mind, body, and soul. I wish more people see that. 🧠 💪🙏
yes!
I am sorry to hear this, you guys have inspired me to incorporate skipping into my regular workout. Good luck with where you go next, I wish you all the best and thank you man, you are a, a true Jump Rope Dude. Regards and good luck.
I love your channel, you guys got me into the jump rope and cross rope. Before I began watching your content I would always just do machine cardio at the gym and you got me back into jumping rope. Thank you!
Love it! stick with us!
Thank you! And great luck!
I’ve always been active. Gym wasn’t my thing but then I found your guys 5 years ago. Thank you so much for the inspiration and good times. Good luck on your new chapter and don’t forget it to do the thing!!!!
Our pleasure! Of course, do the thing is a lifestyle! it doesn't go anywhere!
Thank you so man for everything all these years, all the best for wherever you go 👏
Good luck Brandon with the new path you are following, wish you all the best. Thank you for the many great video's and inspiration
Hey Brandon.
You and Dan are the reason I started jumping rope. When the lockdown started I ended my membership at the local gym. Working in the aviation industry I suddenly saw myself having too much of a sedentary life. I decided to commit to an even more disciplined life during the pandemic. I started watching a few fitness videos on youtube, but after a week or two I felt I needed to level up. I remembered watching a video explaining the benefits of jumping rope, but I came across two issues: I didn't know how to jump rope and I didn't own one. I called my father to know if he still owned his and if I could borrow it. After a positive response all I had to do was learn to jump. I searched jump rope tutorials on youtube and the first video that I got from the results was Dan teaching the basics of a basic jump on top of a parking lot. Fast forward to the present, here I am, still working as a flight attendant, but always with my two crossrope sets in my luggage. Thank you for your "presence" during all training sessions at home. Best of luck to your life and project.
Greetings from Portugal.

Sadly I had to stop jumpinig for around 3 years after getting sick. Now that I'm getting back to jumping it's sad to see the guys with the biggest influence on my fitness changed. Look luck in the future and thanks for the memories and the help to love jump rope.

You guys inspired me to start jumping as something to do when the weather was too bad to run, but I feel in love with jump rope and keep it in my routine. It's put a spring in my running step again. Thank you, good luck to you.

I just want to say thank you so much you’re a big part on my fitness journey😊
You have been fabulous. I started watching 2 years ago and your jumping programs have changed me in a positive light. I’m feeling great. Looks are in the eyes of the beholder but I went from 177 pounds to 140 in a year. From size 12 to a 2/4. I’m now 48! I just got my ropeless Crossrope pack and I see muscles I never thought possible. You both have meant so much to so many people. I want to thank you. I wish you much luck and happiness and hope to see you on the fitness circuit. 🌷
that is amazing!!! such awesome work! so happy to hear it! shoot us some pics and your story if you have a chance! (contact@jumpropedudes.com).
Good luck for the future Brandon, stay blessed 🙌
Thanks for all the great videos! I just started jumping rope about a month ago and your videos have been extremely motivating. Best wishes!
great! stick with us!
Thank you Bran and Dan! Found this channel in 2018, then re-found it during the pandemic when my gym closed. Even though my gym has been open for a couple years now, I haven't been back because I haven't NEEDED to go back. I bought a set of weights and a bench, and I jump outdoors. Best fitness choice I've made pretty much my entire life.
bran and dan
Best of luck, Brando! You guys were some of the first that the algorithm sent my way when this flabby dad was looking for a conduit to enjoyable fitness. Since then, I've used jump rope to launch into meaningful fitness and even my own channel. Both of you have definitely contributed to my own positive relationship with fitness. Thanks again and I hope you all the best in mental performance coaching.
much gratitude! Let's goo!
Thanks Brandon. You and Dan have been great coaches and someone to look up to. The fact that you have taken the time to make this video and explain the background story is just another testament of your great character. I’m sure you will do well in your mental performance business. And I’m sure I’ll be here for the great content the Dan will put out.
appreciate you and yes. JRD is here to stay!
