(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 18, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- Mastering double unders requires time, practice and the right jump rope. One of the most frequent questions Lavis encounters is how to size a jump rope for CrossFit double unders and in his new video, he explains and demonstrates how to obtain the right fit.
Lavis prefers the WOD Nation double under jump rope for a number of reasons and it's the rope featured in his video. Box jump ropes are good for beginners, but anyone attempting double unders should have a jump rope that's been sized to their specific height to facilitate progress and reduce the potential for injuries.
Sizing a WOD Nation double under jump rope requires nothing more than a pair of wire cutters to obtain the perfect fit. In the video, Lavis explains how to measure the jump rope to obtain the correct length to height ratio. The rope is the result of extensive research and innovative design, allowing it to be quickly and easily sized with a unique slider system.
The design facilitates the maintenance of tight handles that won't slide, even after it's been adjusted, and will continue to move freely and smoothly with repeated use. The WOD Nation double under jump rope comes with an additional cable and carrying bag, allowing partners and couples to share by simply changing the cable.
Most athletes use box jump ropes and they provide adequate service, but they can't be sized which can seriously limit or even hinder mastering double unders. Traditional box ropes don't incorporate the slider design of the WOD Nation rope that helps eliminate kinks catches and improper swings.
Missed swings are not only frustrating, they can cause considerable pain and injury. Shin splints are the most common complaint, an inflammatory condition that causes pain in the front lower legs. Running through the pain can result in damage to the bone and surrounding soft tissues.
The new video by Lavis is a quick and easy how-to guide for sizing the WOD Nation double under jump rope to accommodate any height. The correct length jump rope not only facilitates better performance when learning to achieve double unders, it significantly reduces the risk of painful injuries that can keep athletes out of training.
