Weighted jump ropes are used for jumping, skipping, sideward skipping, and alternating leg forwards to work out the shoulders, arms, legs, and the entire body. Weighted jump ropes are also used to do advanced weight jump rope routines like hand crossovers and double jumps for a more extensive workout. They can weigh anywhere from one to three pounds.
These jump ropes are made of solid rubber covered in foam. They have handles with swivel ball bearings at each end. The weight is distributed evenly throughout the rope. Most models are have ergonomically-designed hand grips that help spin the ropes faster and reduce muscle fatigue on the wrists, shoulders, and elbows. Solid Rubber Weighted Jump Ropes are ideal for cardio-respiratory training, endurance training, and strengthening.
These weighted jump ropes are made of leather. They have handles that can also be made of leather with padded wood ball bearings. Most Leather Weighted Jump Ropes have weighted handles for increased resistance and soft foam hand grips for added comfort and protection.
Length: Choose a weighted jump rope with a length proportional to your height. To determine the proper length to get, step onto the center of the rope and pull both ends up. It is the right length for you if the handles reach your armpits.
