(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 01, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- The WOD Nation jump rope is a product of extensive research and it was designed by an athlete as a tool for achieving double unders. Double unders is an exercise that uses a jump rope in which the rope makes two passes per jump instead of one. If jumping rope is an effective exercise, the double under is even more effective because it permits higher work capacity.
However, the right jump rope should be coupled with correct technique in order to nail that elusive double under. In his video, Barry Lavis demonstrates the proper way of performing double unders with the use of a WOD Nation speed rope. There are essential things that should be kept in mind while doing double unders. One is to keep the body in a straight line and avoid kicking to the front or to the back. This is a common mistake among athletes. The other important thing is to try to stay long with the neck. The body should not break at the knees and the hips. Instead, the aim should be to put the head through the ceiling.
The WOD Nation jump rope is not only for experienced athletes who want to string multiple double unders. Anyone who wants to reap the benefits of jumping rope can use this rope. Jumping rope has long been a favorite exercise because of its ease and effectiveness. Among the benefits one can get from this popular cardiovascular exercise are stronger legs, arms, and core. It also helps with balance, speed, and agility. Including jumping rope as part of one's regular fitness routine can be effective in achieving top physical condition.
