How to buy the right jump rope for yourself

Open the shopping platform search "jump rope".  The jump rope material is different, the function of jump rope is also different. In fact, there are many other materials and function of the jump rope.

1, Look at the material

According to my above analysis of each material suitable for the crowd, you can first roughly determine which kinds of material jump rope you can use.

Beginner newcomer: first recommended with plastic jump rope, followed by bamboo jump rope or cowhide jump rope can be selected.

Have some basic fitness: recommended with PVC wrapped wire jump rope, or weighted nylon jump rope.

Professional athletes or contestants: recommended to use steel wire jump rope, afraid of pain can choose PVC wrapped single wire rope.

Group rope skipping, performance, middle-aged and elderly: recommended with woven rope skipping rope, bamboo jump rope, or rubber jump rope.

2, look at the use

Then the different uses of different materials of jump rope properties also have requirements.

If only daily to keep exercise habits or cope with the jump rope examination, it is recommended to use the lighter quality of plastic jump rope.

If it is for fat loss and better exercise effect, it is recommended to use the weight of the weighted jump rope or PVC wrapped wire jump rope.

If it is a competitor, training explosive power, it is recommended finer wire jump rope without protective layer, afraid of pain can choose to have PVC or PU wrapped wire rope.

If it is the elderly to go to the square sports, youth and children recreation, it is recommended bamboo jump rope.

3, Look at the handle

Look at the focus of the handle in looking at its axis, is the hollow shaft, or rotary axis, or bearing.

Bearing or rotating shaft jump rope can be used with inertia, throwing up more smoothly, not because of friction with the handle and produce jamming.

Smooth degree: rotating shaft ≥ bearing > hollow shaft, and the more bearings the better.

At the same time the handle thickness and length also affect the jump rope experience, jump rope handle longer, the greater the torque.

So the newcomer to try to choose a longer handle smooth performance jump rope, handle thickness to a hand to be able to completely hold the two handles as appropriate.

Add a point: jump rope length is not the focus of the purchase, because the length of the jump rope on the market will basically exceed your needs, buy back after the need to adjust themselves.
