How to do it

Steady two-foot jump rope skips on a foam or aluminum rope.

You'll need

Steps

  1. Regular Skips: standing on exact rope midpoint, two strands taut up to handles at armpits with height guide.

    Adjust the rope so the handles reach about armpit height when you stand on the centre.

  2. Regular Skips: elbows near torso, hands near hips, small wrist-turn arrows and rope path.

    Keep your elbows close to your body and turn the rope from your wrists.

  3. Regular Skips: low two-foot jump with 2-3 cm ground-clearance inset and forefoot landing.

    Jump just 2–3 cm off the ground, landing softly on the balls of your feet.

  4. Regular Skips: continuous low-jump rope cycle with time/rhythm cue.

    Continue at a steady rhythm for the planned time.

Stop if you feel pain. This is general guidance, not medical advice.
