500 Adult Skipping Rope - Pink

Adjusting your skipping rope?

To determine the right length for your skipping rope, place your foot in the middle of the rope and lift the handles up either side of your body. For beginners, or for greater comfort, the handles should come up to your shoulders. For advanced skippers, the rope can be shorter, coming up to your lower ribs or navel.

Easy four-step adjustment (see the illustration on the packaging)

Once you've determined the length:Hold the top of the handle, at the indentation. 1. Push the rope towards the bottom of the handle: the adjuster is released. 2. Slip the rope through to have extra length (the length will depend on your height and skill level, as explained above). 3. Cut off the extra length. 4. Replace the adjuster in its original position.Your rope is ready!Refer to the drawings on the packaging if needed.

Add weights to your 500 skipping rope (see the illustration on the packaging)

You can add up to two weights on each handle (1 x 75 g weight, sold separately). To add weights, turn the handle so the coloured button faces you. Press the button to release the chamber. Add one or two weights to the chamber. Reinsert the chamber into handle.Repeat on the other side. You can start your workout.

Enjoy skipping without risk of injury

Correct technique involves jumping with your stomach tight, contracting the abdominal muscles, the pelvis must be tucked under to avoid overarching the back – which can cause back pain and injury. For beginners, to improve jumping and balance we recommend doing two jumps for each rotation of the skipping rope: alternate twice on the right foot, then twice on the left foot. We strongly recommend wearing trainers to cushion impacts

Burning energy

15 minutes of skipping is the equivalent of 30 minutes of jogging. One hour of skipping burns up to 725 calories!

Benefits of skipping rope

Skipping is an effective way of burning calories, losing weight, slimming your figure and even getting a flat tummy. This is a simple, all-round exercise that improves balance and encourages good posture. Skipping works lower-body muscles while toning the arms, shoulders, back and abs. With the right technique, this sport can boost endurance.

Used for 3 to 6 months

At first site, my mind was glued to my own designed fact that skipping rope is girlish thing, though I was heavy guy (210 lbs 3 months back). But read few article on skipping and thought of giving it a try so bought simple domyos skipping rope initially. Struggled a lot since I've never done this thing, but managed somehow which made me feel great, then bought this masterpiece with weights. Now after 3 months lost 10 lbs.
I would highly recommend this one. But still wish to have a heavy jump rope at decathlon, eagerly waiting for it.....

Response of the brand

Dear Sagar,

I feel so happy to read this review, I cannot even express. I do it myself 1000 everyday and I agree it's truly amazing. We have had weighted jump ropes in the past, but we have only 2 options now. We'll keep your feedback and keep you updated once we have heavier weighted ropes in our range

Thank You

Used for 1 week or less

This jump rope is ok when you do normal , but when I try to do crossover jump , I got hit by the sharp edge at the bottom of the handle in my right hand thrice and that too in a single day....Maybe it was my first crossover jump or maybe it's the structure problem ..Or I don't know how to grip...Rest all is super good ..Quality is perfect

Very comfortable

Used for 2 to 8 weeks

The skipping rope is very smooth when skipping and because of it's long handles it gives more grip while juming and also maintaing the pose for a longer duration.

Great experience

You had a earlier blue rubber band option which is quite good. This ones look cheap and very light. I bought it because i don't want to break my routine. Stop replacing working products with cheap products to save cose

Dear Maharshi,

We're sorry for the inconvenience caused
We'll share your valuable feedback with the product manager. We do not compromise on quality to reduce the price, that is for sure

PAWAN (India) , 20-29 years old , Man

The grip is good & the bearing help a lot, but the weight of the rope is standard, you may start getting some heavy ropes too.

The weight makes a difference but the inertia is not maintained.

Dear Pawan,

We're sorry for the inconvenience caused and thanks for writing to us

You're right, that the weight of the rope is standard. For your information, we have the option to add some weights to the rope you bought

Below is the link for your to check it out:
