GoxRunx Skipping Rope For Fitness Workout

I bought this two pack of ropes for at home use during quarantine and they have been great! The rope is a licorice rope, or in other words has a rubber covering over the rope and is quite durable so far. I have already done 10,000 skips or so on a hard driveway and it is holding up well, just slightly texturing it which is to be expected. The handles are hollow so you could easily add weight if you wanted which is another benefit. The spin is decent, not like a speed rope and workable and though I am not too skilled at them I can still do double unders. I am 6′ 2″ with average length arms and legs and the rope works for me. It is nearly too short as I do hit my head periodically. It is likely due to improper technique but it can be an issue at times. I have always been told rope handles should come to armpit for proper length, these handles hit me just below my nipples. Definitely a solid rope and great for outdoor use! Will buy again but with two of them I should be good for hundreds of thousands of skips/jumps at least.

If you are looking around Amazon you definitely have seen this type of skipping rope for sale. In fact, there are probably 30+ sellers selling the same thing. Well this is one of those, and comes at a very low price due to it being a dual pack. I needed two so this fit the bill. The bearings feel kinda cheap and the handles are plastic, but it does the job. The rope is decently heavy and works well. All in all a great deal and ships fast. I needed this to start a workout program at home and I needed it quick. It came just in time at a very affordable price.

A recent study shows that 10 minutes of intense jump roping equals about 30 minutes of running in terms of efficiency. I believe it’s because you use more muscles to jump rope than to run. I started jump roping over the past year using a fitness rope we had laying around. After about a month of consistent jumping the handle cut into the rope and eventually severed it. For Christmas I wanted a rope that had bearings in the handle to hopefully stop the cutting. This rope has a very good weight, is easy to adjust the length and best of all has bearings in the very comfortable handles making the spin extremely smooth and cut free. I recommend it if you’re looking to get into some jump rope fitness.

Llegó rápido y funcionó bien. Pero no duró mucho.

Très satisfait

Easy to adjust, good for beginners like myself 🙂

When I first got these I was a bit concerned of the large diameter of the handles. I realized quickly that both ends have screw-on caps that secure the rope into the handle, which would have been fine had I known that before I started jump roping and the rope immediately came undone from the loose screw cap, whipping me in the face.
I jump rope every day for about 30 minutes and one lasted just shy of a month before the rope tore off the end cap piece that keeps it secured into the handle.
The screws had come off a number of times to the point where I had to consciously secure the end caps in place with my grip just to be sure they wouldn’t unfasten, which takes you out of the zone leaving you paranoid one might come undone.
I wouldn’t recommend these as the end caps themselves come loose far too often and the rope can fly off in any direction, and they hit you they will hurt! If you jump rope casually these might be fine, but if you jump rope every day as much as I do then I would find another pair.
