(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 03, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- Jumping rope is a fun yet effective exercise for cardiovascular health. It is also a good way to develop speed and agility. Performing double unders gets even better results because it is more intense. With double unders, the rope makes two passes in a single jump instead of one. It requires more coordination, technique and the right jump rope.
The WOD Nation jump rope is a speed rope designed to facilitate double unders. It is a fast rope because it has durable handles that house fast metal bearings. It is designed to spin fast yet it produces a stable swing. Its stability makes it easy to recover from missed or inaccurate swings.
The well-researched design of the WOD Nation speed rope all work together to make double unders easier to achieve. On top of all its features, this rope can be measured and cut to the athlete's desired length. A correctly-sized jump rope is important and one cannot get it from box jump ropes. The WOD Nation rope can be cut to size easily using a pair of sharp wire cutters. That means no matter what height the athlete is, this speed rope could be measured to the right length. Those who are tall, as well as shorter individuals including children, can use this jump rope.
To cut the rope to the correct size, simply unroll the cable and step on it with one foot right in the middle. Bring the left handle to chest height and make sure the adjustment screw is tight. Loosen the adjustment screw and move the handle down to match the height of the right handle. Retighten the adjuster. And finally, clip the excess wire with a sharp wire cutter and replace the rubber end cap.
