Just when you thought there was only way to jump rope (aka, super fast), we’ve unleashed two jump rope experiences to liven up your cross-training and cardio—introducing the all-new TRX® Speed Jump Rope and TRX® Weighted Jump Rope.
Yes, you can cross-train with them using your TRX® Suspension Trainer™. Yes, they both provide a serious added cardio push. But, let’s spell out the awesome differences and how they both add an awesome new element to your workouts.
JUMP ROPE 1: THE TRX® SPEED JUMP ROPE
Built for speed. Consider this rope your go-to piece of gear for quick bursts of cardio (like double unders), with features like a super light profile and rotating handles that remove extra resistance—aka, it spins fast for everything from simple hops to speedwork drills. The options are nearly limitless, from single skips to single-leg hops to jacks to side-to-side hops to fancy moves like shuffle dances, crossover arm drills and yes, even backward skips.
WHAT IT WORKS
- Overall sport agility
- Foot and ankle strength (a lot more important than we think)
- Balance and coordination
- Both muscular and cardiovascular endurance
- Did we mention it’s fun?
HOW IT WORKS
- Ultra-lightweight design for quick turnover (translation: speed)
- Tapered handles for an easy grip (translation: control)
- Adjustable up to 10 feet for short to tall heights
- Coated wire means extra smooth spinning
- 4 hi-precision ball bearings per rope prevent twisting
JUMP ROPE 2: THE TRX® WEIGHTED JUMP ROPE
Cardio and strength in one. Turn your jump rope intervals into strengthening sessions with weighted handles that tire out arms more quickly than back-to-back arm strength moves. For this rope, straight-up single jumps are all you need to light up every inch of your body (especially your shoulders)—we love using it for really intensive conditioning where you want a max heart rate in the shortest time possible. Basically, if you’re an Airdyne lover, you’ll find that weighted jump ropes are the next best thing.
WHAT IT WORKS
- Shoulder, core, and grip strength
- Mega calorie-burning full-body workout
- Joint health from extra load
- Both muscular and cardiovascular endurance
- Improves your speed when going back to Speed Rope
HOW IT WORKS
- Extra grippy handles (translation: extra control)
- Adjustable up to 10 feet for short to tall heights
- Coated wire for smooth spinning
- Removable 9oz weights in handles for custom resistance
- Solid PVC rope interior for long-lasting durability
