(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 19, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- Double unders are within reach of any athlete and CrossFit Chiang Mai Thailand coach, Barry Lavis, shares his expertise in a new video that explains the key ingredients required for performing successful, consecutive double unders with the WOD Nation double under speed jump rope.
The double under method of jumping rope is an art form that anyone can learn after watching the new video by CrossFit Chiang Mai Thailand coach, Barry Lavis. There are two essentials that must be observed and Lavis provides practical demonstrations and information to make the process easier.
The first component of care-free double unders is a jump rope that’s sized to the individual’s height. Lavis noted that most athletes, especially beginners, utilize an ordinary box jump rope available around the world. They're perfectly adequate for basic jumps, but not for double unders.
Lavis has endorsed the WOD Nation double under jump rope for CrossFit training and specifically for double unders. There must be a height-to-rope-length ratio for consistent double under jumping. The WOD Nation rope can be sized with a simple pair of wire cutters. It reassembles seamlessly with the company's unique slider system.
A custom cut jump rope for double unders eliminates many of the typical problems athletes encounter when learning how to accomplish the movement. The easy spin feature of the WOD Nation rope ensures that the cable won't kink or catch and the tailored rope length aids in eliminating kick-outs.
The WOD Nation double under rope has a metal ball bearing design that enables it to spin freely and match any speed at which the individual wants to jump. As a bonus, each double under jump rope comes with a spare cable, hardware and a drawstring carrying pouch.
The second element required for double unders is correct body positioning. Lavis noted that athletes must maintain a long, one-piece body position to perform double unders. The easy spin ability of the WOD Nation rope enables athletes to focus on their form and not the rope.
In his new video, Lavis explains the advantages of a customized rope, provides demonstrations on the posture needed to achieve them, and problems the rope helps eliminate. The WOD Nation double under jump rope was created by a CrossFit trainer cognizant of the needs of athletes engaged in double under training. The double art is an art form that's now within reach with Lavis' tutelage.
