I just bought a dope rope on your recommendation! I’m 50 and picked up a jump rope for first time in years. I’ve been following you for a bit. You’ve inspired me to start learning your footwork. So excited and feels good to challenge myself. Will probably be buying the mat soon too. Thank you for sharing all the tutorials

Hello Lauren, thank U from Ukraine! I started jumping rope thanks to your Shorts in KZread. Your videos motivate me to become the better rope jumper:) Rope is the only sports equipment that with me. Jumping rope distracts me the horror around me. Glory of Ukraine!

@@icarium6031 Oh yes, that's exactly what I've been doing since last February. I fight for the safety of my girls (my wife and daughter in Kyiv), I choose freedom for our country while in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And skipping helps me keep my mind in good shape and not lose my mind.

Hi. I have been a specialist in internal medicine in Germany for 30 years. I am additionally a doctor for prevention, nutritional medicine, sports medicine and have trainer licenses for competitive triathlon and perform performance tests on professionals. I myself have completed all distances in triathlon for 30 years with great success ( at least 20 hours of training a week). Qualifications for world championships, also Hawaii....I want to say that I know a little about sports. But for your achievement I have a huge respect. I admire you. You're not just a beautiful woman. You are incredibly consistent and have trained brutally for years to achieve these fantastic feats. That commands a great deal of respect and admiration. You smile on every one of your videos. It's a dream. It looks so easy. But I also know your videos from the beginning of your training. With these lines I just want to express my admiration and encourage you to continue. As a doctor, your movements, your facial expressions, your posture, your gestures.... tell me much more. This world needs people like you. You are a very valuable person. Stay as you are! Don't let anyone want to change you. You are the way you are supposed to be! Keep your beliefs and affirmations. I admire you and wish I had the strength and energy to do the same. I send you my love from far away. Your videos will continue to inspire me in the future. My life account is almost expired. But your videos - your smile - create beautiful moments! That feels good. Please keep up the good work. Make the world smile. Then you get smiles back and create joy in people's hearts. Best regards

I just want to thank you for the two intro long-form VODs. Thanks to your channel, I just bought my first beaded rope and know how to size it. I'm 60 and am very much looking forward to being able to video my very first crappy running man and a shuffle or two. And, thanks to you, I'm going to be very careful of taking care of my feet, shins and knees. Your jumping shorts are an absolute JOY to watch! I confess that I watched the very first short because, well, you're a pretty, fit young lady. A few shorts later and I was completely addicted to watching your footwork. Thank you for introducing me to a world of which I was completely unaware.

Thank you! I started working out with another KZreadr, Caroline Girvan, at the onset of the pandemic and have never stopped. Per your inspiration, I’ve been adding 5 minutes tabata intervals after with a jump rope. Yup, my rope was too long. Towards the end of the intervals, I was starting to trip up. Adjusting to a shorter rope length has made a huge difference in getting through this cardio blast. Bless you for sharing your journey. I look forward to getting better, stronger and building more endurance with your lead. At age 64, working out makes all the difference. I ski better now than I’ve ever skied in my life. Stronger, smoother and non-stop.

This is the best rope length video I’ve seen! I’m in the process of experimenting with shorter ropes and it’s pretty frustrating. Thanks for the thoughtful explanation!

Thanks for this amazing video, i've been jumproping for half a year now and only for a month i'm trying to do some tricks and footwork, which is going well with a long rope.. but now that i want to increase also the speed i figured out that i need a shorter rope for that. Really frustrated because I had the feeling i was a beginner again and have to learn everything again.. good to know that you had this same stuggle in your Journey and look at what you are doing now! Big inspiration to continue and try to improve my technique with a shorter rope. Thanks!

Beyond brilliant explanation and DEMONSTRATION🙌🏻. In rhythmic gymnastics it' s long until armpits just because we have to jump through in split and middle split so it needs room for our both insane long legs extended. Your iliac crests length makes total sense!! Thank you soooo much! 🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

You are fantastic Lauren! This is the best rope length and form tutorial I've ever seen. You're so concise, great videos (showing side-by-side differences and slow mo) and your presentation to all viewers is so encouraging and not pretentious. I really appreciate all of your videos (and your sense of humour 😄). Thank you for inspiring me to be a better me 🙏😊

Thank you Lauren! You take the time to think of, care about and help to teach and encourage us!!! Blessings!!

Only just today I came across your Instagram and saw your jump rope videos. I cannot wait to get started with the beaded rope I’ve just ordered and learn from your videos! ☺️

I started with a rope that was 9’3” (3 feet longer than my height) just before Xmas. Now I’m at 8’3” with the aim of getting to 8 feet dead. The biggest help for me is drilling my technique in a mirror to make sure I’m balanced/even. It took me a while to get used to it but feel much more comfortable with the shorter length, less tripping. Need to properly start working on foot work though ...

Thanks Lauren. Always very clear and informative. Keep posting and uploading. Cheers

Thank You Lauren This jump rope length video has really helped me I was talking about how my rope kept tripping me up with a friend , and Your insightful video came onto my KZread timeline End of my problems, i started doing jump rope as part of my excercise routine How amazing are You and a joy to watch and learn from You inspire me to be better MuchLove ❣️🇿🇦

Best description of sizing the rope. Brilliant!

Lauren thx so much for insite on jumping for us newbies..your helping change my life for the better. Bless you. Cant wait to see your new videos..Cela from South Fl in America

I’m new to jump roping and I purchased a crossrope set based on their sizing guidelines. I bought a large being 5’11 and I immediately felt it was way too long so I exchanged for a medium. I still felt even that was too long! I ended up buying an adjustable rope to experiment and learned that I could actually manage with the extra small rope from cross rope which is 7’6” long. So for me at least I need 3 sizes smaller than their recommendation suggests. I find it easier to jump with a shorter rope already and figure I may as well learn with better form from the start. The rope length you settled with being 1’8” more than your height plays out on my case basically as well. The extra small crossrope is 1” short of that but hopefully it will work out ok and I’ll keep my beaded rope and pvc one as well for options. Thanks for the video! Definitely the best one I’ve seen for proper sizing. I’m very surprised so many people recommend such a long rope to people. I could hardly jump with it. Best!

Again, super informative and precise!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! THIS WAS VERY INFORMATIVE!

Thanx for sharing these informations with us! Looking forward to see some tutorials from you!!

Daaang, this totally explained my difficulty crossing. I do that stuff! Thank you!

Thanks for this information. Rope length depends a little on how you hold the handles and their shape. So that's something that should be addressed as well.

One of the best explanation about this issue I´ve ever seen. Thanks. All that You´ve said makes sense to me.

Great tips, Lauren! Thank you for sharing

Solid info Lauren! 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Congratulations 800k and counting ❤❤🎉

Zen and the art of Jump rope. Great advice.

Hi Lauren. I just wanted to say that I have just started skipping. Thanks to your channel. I know that I'm being by'est but I think your the best. Love watching your videos.

Thank you, will try the method just ordered a beaded jump rope, I’m 52 😊. Your inspiring to watch thank you

You have BEAUTIFUL eyes, a cute accent and an adorable dog. Take care and keep up the inspiration! Peace n love from the west coast of the United States

Thanks again. This is really helping me improve.

I realized my rope has been way too long and my shoulders would get murdered doing double unders. This is was super helpful to set me up correctly. Thank you!

Hi Lauren. Inspired by your videos, I finally committed. From your video on different types, I decided on the pvc covered cable type with bearings. Looked this one up because it came waaaay too long. 20" longer than my height was perfect. Tried 2" shorter and tripped on it every time. Set it back to 20, and it's good to go!

amazing video💜I’m in my 3rd month journey..And trying to figure out things and this is a big help😍thank you..

Thank you for sharing this information and your experiences.

Came here to find out how to size my jump rope. But after watching those Instagram for months I didn't expect that accent and I'm not sure why. 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the great and informative content.

Well I ordered myself a jump rope! Thanks for the inspiration Lauren

Very well explained and presented. Wishing you a continued world of success🙏big bonus to see your face for six min.

I just wrapped around my wrist so obviously whatever length is OK ✅!!!

Nice one I skip the fitness and we used to skip the warmup in boxing I have a skipping rope in my gym bag I thought it out every now and then the next lot warmer love the video👍

Perfect explanation thx for sharimg Lauren 💪

Glad i found your channel, late perhaps, but heck yes thanks for the content!

Thanks a lot Lauren!!! I can't believe it haha I always followed the rule that says "till your chest" and now that I shorten my rope I feel like I'm flying, it's amazing!!! it took me a few days to get used to it, the tricks and everything but now I feel ready for more complex tricks that before I could not even try

Thanks Lauren you are an inspiration

Incredible detailed information ❤

This is really educational thank you for helping me🙏

Brilliant explanation, the chicken and egg comparison is really smart 👌

thanks for he helpful tips! I never thought about the logical thing of leaving the excess on until Im sure - was worried about cutting it off and it being too short . :D

First of all I've been watching your short videos for a long time and never really heard your voice. I LOVE your accent. (hey I'm an American and easily turned on by a woman's voice lol) That being said I have been jumping rope since I was a teen to help me warm up when I was running track mostly long distance. Thanks for the great tips I am 68 and retired now and have gotten lazy so I've decided to take up jumping rope again. I see you using a mat whenever you jump. Great idea. Would you suggest the best mat to use. Thanks again and don't stop doing the shorts. I love them. You make jumping rope sexy!!! BTW I am a new subscriber.

Awesome tutorial! Thanks

Super helpful with hand placement, length of rope and type of rope.

You really are awesome! Fun and intelligent! I appreciate your work and help… My rope is to long!

Cheers Lauren! Nice clear vid.

I'm glad to have watched this. Thanks for explaining at a pace and in an order that makes the logic behind the choice of jump rope length seem trivial and self evident. I feel like I've learned something: Height plus three feet for absolute beginner, shorten to no less than heigth plus one foot for a better more efficient technique once you get a hang of it. Should I extrapolate that as an out of shape middle aged person with bad coordination I'd need a jump rope of height plus a few yards? (I'm joking. Don't at me Internet.) I have to say tho, I'm kinda curious to find out how badly I'd suck at this.

Thanks for the video. Experimentation is key. Too many videos confuse the hell out of it.

Just about to start out. Good info. Thanks.

Hi L thanks so much for all the wonderful videos I am truly inspired by what you do. Just a question and I know it sounds basic but how to adjust your rope length without cutting it?

love your jump rope mat. can you tell where to get one?

Found your IG and look forward to learn from it. I also started jumping during the pandemic.

Great show. What about rope and handle type? A real rope or something else? The one I got today is like plastic something or other. Not able to find like a real rope on. What is your suggestion?

Do you have any recommendations about the type of mats and shoes that would best to use? Are just yoga mats and regular runners adequate? Thanks!

Cool, that's inspiring.

if you have a hardware store nearby sometimes they have rubber mats that can work, or amazon mats meant for stationary exercise bikes/equipment. Another route can be stable mats or mats meant for animal/farm spots. Whichever of these is the cheapest kind of depends on where you live. Check out the options and you can probably find something reasonable £20-40

Hi Lauren great vid I’ve just bought my first rope my question is what mat do you use and do you recommend a circular mat or rectangle thanks

I use a mat from Jump Rope Dudes, it's oval, I recommend it.

What do you think are the benefits of jump rope and what are the pros and cons?

I am quite ok with shortening rope, but I am getting frustrated when I want to do criss-cross double unders. In that case my rope is always too short ☹️

I am starting new sometimes I don’t even hear the rope hitting the ground. I don’t understand what is happening exactly. And I can’t go over 20 jumps in a row. That is the best case.

You remind me of Olivia Newton John Great tips thanks

Just starting out and I'm finding every other day is a real slog. Can't seem to keep my form consistent. Some advice on drill and form would be great to see.
