Elastigirl Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 I did 30 seconds yesterday ( I was mainly practicing my jumps) and 3 minutes today. I was trying to hop more than jump, as per someone's (can't remember who) suggestion. I hoped my calves would last longer, but I could never get a rhythm so I just went back to the way I've been doing it. 1 Quote Wisdom 22.5 Dexterity 13 Charisma 15 Strength 21 Constitution-13 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind' Luke 10; 27 Link to comment

Jittersthe.Clown Posted October 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Look out everyone Or jump rope, as the case may be. For last week, here are the numbers I see: Elastigirl - 9.5 Minutes Mad Hatter - 7 Minutes JittersThe.Clown - 16 Minutes Arkania - 0 Minutes Jitters takes the 3 points for most jumped, followed by 2 points for Elastigirl with 1 point Hatter following close behind. All 3 reporting contestants improved their time from the week prior and is awarded an additional 2 points. And so our points break down as such: Jitters - 12 Mad Hatter - 8 Elastigirl - 12 points Arkania - 0 points (out due to injury. We are all wishing a speedy recovery!) It still looks to be a close race to the final week. Stay tuned to see how this plays out! 1 1 Quote Level 2 Warforged Druid STR: 2, DEX: 1, STA: 3, CON: 3, WIS: 2, CHA: 3 "If these people tell this story to their children as they sleep; then maybe someday they'll see a hero is just a man who knows he is free."

TimovieMan Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Got any tips for absolute beginners? I'm trying to incorporate rope jumping in my warm up routine and as an activity for on my "off" days, but I seriously suck at it. The only way I get some decent volume in (with acceptable form) is with an intermittent bounce in between single unders. But that means it's also slooooow. As soon as I try for single unders *only*, I start jumping way too high and apparently can't keep a proper rhythm. I have yet to do 10 jumps in a row without failing. Hints and tricks? Or is it a simple case of "practice, practice, practice"?

Mainly this But also think less jump height and more bounce + rotating the wrists faster. But if you can do 10 in a row you already know how to do it, you just need to keep at it. 2 Quote Link to comment

With an intermittent bounce, I never jump, just bounce, and can do 40+ in a row easily. Whenever I try to leave the intermittent bounce out and go faster, I fail after 5-6. And I would probably fail after 2-3 but I jump WAY too high when I lose the intermittent bounce, as if to artificially squeeze another one or two jumps in without failing. The difference is massive. Keep at it, I guess? 1 Quote Active challenges: Spring Respawn: Winter Blues to Summer Bod | Walk to Mordor - (spreadsheet) | DailyDare | Weight Loss PVP 10/12 lbs in 10/12 weeks - (spreadsheet) 2023-24 threads: Challenge VIII | IX | X | XI | XII | XIII | XIV | XV | XVI | XVII | XVIII 2018-19 & 2021 threads: Battle log | Challenge I | II | III | IV | V | VI | VII Link to comment

Sounds like you're doing the right thing when you're doing the intermittent bounce and it's mostly a question of rotating the rope a lot faster + perhaps a slightly higher bounce? 1 Quote Link to comment
