I’m north of 50 years old and experienced wrist pain while performing DUs with the quarter pound rope. I switched to a speed rope and haven’t experienced any pain since. Hope this helps someone.
at around 5:40 on the counting thing - to slow it down go to "1 and 2 and 1 and 2". It's how dancers add the half beat in to their counts. This way you aren't necessarily slowing down your count, you're just adding a consistent pause between the counts. Also, get a metronome app on your phone. It'll give you a consistent beat to jump to without blocking the sound of the rope the way music will.
@@jlfelber1 not really, I started with 60 bpm and quickly moved to 90 which is a comfortable place for me. Just play with it and you’ll find a beat that works for you.
One more tip that really helped me finally nail this move down is the timing issue: jumping a second before the rope hits the ground, not when you start swinging it. This gives you enough time to stay up in the air as the rope swings twice under your feet 💪💪💪
what app do u use to count jumps? i have a garmin instinct 1 watch. my goal is to lose weight. my traininģ is 3 sets 10min jumping and 2min break. is this good? 3-4times a week thanks
I've been struggling with DUs forever. I can get 5 pretty sorta consistently, but for whatever reason I can't seem to just pickup the rope and belt out any number of DUs. Really frustrating.
off was doing some skipping today been a long time since i did it i was doing doing double under by an accident ^^maybe muscle memory from before ? my issue is i just have to build up my stamina again i cant last very long while doing them
i liked the tip about the swing once let the rope come around twice. and patience. i have tendency to pull down i think smacking myself in the head with the rope. a big ouch!
The way I learned double unders was strange. I couldn't do more than 1 for months no matter how hard I swung the rope or how high I jumped. Then one day I used like all my muscles to do it and it was the first time I got more than 1. Still remember how my chest, abs, and even butt muscles got a tight feeling while doing it. So for me it is not just the wrists and the high jumps that contribute to my double unders. It's a lot more than that. And now after a long while I still feel the first two or three jumps the most difficult although the movements have felt a lot more natural. After that I have the momentum and I'm able to continue until I'm tired.
Im a women..i want to get lean and toned but not bulky.. Please make a video on itt🙏🏻 Their is a lot of false information on the internet about this topic..i only watch and trust what you say because im watching your videos since 2 years..please do make a video on how to get lean and toned but not bulky.
I promise you jumping rope and bodyweight exercises are excellent ways to get lean and toned (if you eat properly) and you won't get bulky. It's a myth that lifting weight or exercise makes you bulky, your body type is mostly genetic. hope this helps!

Im so grateful for jump rope, I hate long distance running lol
same lol
that was me a while back lol
but jump rope made me better at running too. recently ran my first half marathon.
This is exactly how I learned the double unders. This is the best how to video you have made Dan. More of this format in the future would be great 👍
i'll keep 'em coming!

thanks for sharing
The momentum thing is for real, thank you for sharing
Thank you!! This is on my list to learn!!
It's a good goal, the only way is to get over the fear and try one 😅

great tips
I love the metronome idea.
Is it hard to get the right frequency for the metronome?

Thanks for the update coach
👊🏼
Dan could you make a video about squatted jump rope please ? The technique 👊🏻👊🏻
sure!
I find this so hard to do, but thanks for sharing dude👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎🏴im on it👍🏻
it's the rhythm and that part is just practice
Great tutorial 💯
🙏🏽
I like the info, it'll be awhile for me to do.
there's no timeline for these things just practice and have fun with it 🤙🏼
@@JumpRopeDudes okay, for sure
Great Video Dan! Can’t wait for your warmup and deadhang routine!
same, coming soon!

great tip!
Suggestion, as you have a global audience and we use the metric system would be quite useful for you to use it as well
Thank you brother, For now, I can just 2 or 3 double unders in a row, but dont know how to do them more ,
That's awesome, keep going!
