January 4, 201313 yr I do double leg jump, single, alternating and then usually a double unders to finish up. No way I could do triples with the rope I'm using now, I'd end up in a knot. The floor I do it on at the gym doesn't help either it's more like a rubber material than a hardwood.

The floor I do it on at the gym doesn't help either it's more like a rubber material than a hardwood. The 2 I was trying to think of are rpmrope.com and crossrope.com I'm very intrigued by rpm ropes, I've nothing but good stuff about them but haven't tried one. As far as speed ropes go they are a little pricey but look to be worth it. Cross rope is also intriguing because you can buy different weight cables for training purposes. They have a quick change feature and I have also heard good things about these. They are the most expensive of the all the ones I've listed. If you're just lookin for something simple and not too pricey then I would recommend jumpnrope
January 9, 201313 yr For the first 8 weeks of the year I am working conditioning and form work to reset my body. My four days of main lifts via 5/3/1 (I went back to my training max from September) and am doing my assistance lifts in the Escalating Density Training style. I've tried it once before. It definitely makes you tired.
January 9, 201313 yr Good luck, FKW! I will be at my daughter's swim meet all day, packed in like sardines at Scott HS. :lol: Thank you. I had fun, improved all my times, and managed to snag a few top 3's.
January 9, 201313 yr Thank you. I had fun, improved all my times, and managed to snag a few top 3's. That's great! Cutting time is no easy feat!
January 9, 201313 yr That's great! Cutting time is no easy feat!Thank you. Trying to learn flip turns right now so hopefully I can cut some more time before the next one I do. How was your daughter's meet?
January 9, 201313 yr Thank you. Trying to learn flip turns right now so hopefully I can cut some more time before the next one I do. How was your daughter's meet? Small wins that translated to huge wins in motivation. She dropped 2 sec off her fly and breaststoke. Now she can't wait to get to the pool!
