I need to buy a jump rope. Any suggestions? My hubby bought one a few months ago that he loves, but it was pretty expensive and I'm ... pretty cheap. LOL

    Let me know how you like it. I think I know the one you are referring to. I'm using one with a black nylon rope but it's heavy. By the 2 minute mark, my shoulders are on fire.

    You get it yet? Which one? I want to know if these speed ropes are too light compared to the one I normally use.

    I use ac-17110-pro-ball-bearing-jump-rope.jpg

    Vs what I think you got:

    I got the one in the bottom pic for $8 on Amazon. It does a fine job, I just suck balls at jumping rope.

    The one on the bottom is what I ordered, too. It should be here tomorrow.

    Triple-unders? Seriously? O.o LOL, that's awesome!

    to be fair - I was a rhythmic gymnast in my previous life. Double unders were done in my sleep. Maybe 25 years later, glad I still had it...since I lost everything else (body, flexibility etc..):laugh:
    So working on getting triples and stringing together 100 consecutive du's
