Features - Jump Rope: 4 lbs. / 9ft long - Padded swivel handles that allow rope to spin faster reducing stress on wrists, elbows, and shoulders - Includes 1 per purchase - Orange color Product Description The Champion Weighted Jump Rope is durable with padded, swivel handles that allow the rope to spin faster. This reduces stress on wrists, elbows and shoulders. Its perfect for cardiovascular training and overall exercise and fitness! Customer Reviews Expensive weighted jumprope - worthwhile to increase upper body strength in short bursts of cardio Date: 2008-07-10 | Rating: 5 This is a great jumprope - the handles rotate easily on a ball-and-hip joint. The handles have a thick black neoprene foam for comfort. The 'rope' part is weighted. I have the 4 pound version, which is the orange, heaviest one. It's bright and chipper-looking to make up for the extra kick of a workout you get. You really do get a killer upper body workout from a short amount of jumping activity. Since it's so heavy, you can't really do a long cardio routine here - you have to treat the rope as a "weight" and do sets, gradually adding more revolutions over time. I also like to fold the rope in half and use it as a resistance band of sorts for stretches. The downside to this jumprope is the price. 35 dollars is a lot for a grownup version of a child's toy. However, the key to fitness is actually *using* your gear - you have to like your fitness tools and enjoy using them. This jumprope is nice in the hand, rotates smoothly and a pleasure to use. I was a little wary of the price but I am glad I bought it. Like jump roping with a garden hose. Date: 2009-12-04 | Rating: 1 The title says it all! I don't think this jump rope is good for any fitness level/goal! I assumed that the handles would have the weight, then I open the box and see a huge orange garden hose. I tried it, and hated it. If you're not sure if you should get it, just literally go out to your garage, and try jumping rope with your garden hose...seriously! I love speed rope, and 2 lb weighted ropes, but I don't think I'll be adding this to my jump roping regimine any time soon. | |||||
