Jump Rope
 What is Jump Rope?

A Jump Rope, Rope Skipping, Skipping Rope or Skip Rope is all just synonyms.
It forms the basic foundation of every sport. Here the Jumper/ participant jump over a
spinning rope so that it passes under their feet and over their heads. Jump Rope is
not the nascent to India. It is been popularized among Indians. Even in Dwapar Yug ,
Sh. Radha Rani used to skip. There are more than 950 different tricks/techniques of
skipping rope.
Jump ropes are made of cloth, licorice, plastic, beaded string, or plastic-coated
wire/cables. Cloth and beaded ropes hold their shape better, while plastic and
coated-cable ropes are designed for speed.
As you must aware of the following equation
Value = Costs/ Benefits
But in case of Jump Rope one can say that as it is known as most cost effective sport
so Jump Rope has more Value. Even current research is showing that high impact
activities, such as jumping rope, can also help maintain and/or build healthy bones.
Another big plus is that the cost is minimal – a place to jump, a good rope, and a pair
of supportive athletic shoes are all you need. Jumping rope actually has a lot going
for it as an exercise. Jump Rope can assist in developing agility, coordination, and
balance, not to mention improvements in cardiovascular and muscular endurance.
Jump Rope increased speed, power, agility & explosiveness. Nonetheless, many
sports coaches, fitness trainers & sports enthusiasts remain unaware of the full
potential of it.
Jump Rope or Rope Skipping is the most kidult, cost effective sport which strengthens
the stamina of the individual and helps the obese to lose weight and increases the
appetite of anorexic people. There is no age related factor associated with this sport.
It forms the basic foundation of every sport. This may consist of two participants
turning (Turner) and jumping the rope (Jumper); this form of the activity is called
Double Dutch.
 Jump Rope Federation of India

rightfully claim to have seen the entire spectrum of the beautiful game. Whether be it
the pressures of playing at the international level or carrying out onerous
administrative duties, she has done it all. The mantra driving her, as she claims, is

Coaches Development
In order to develop the coaches, JRFI installed a new forum where the coaches shall get to
know about the technical advancements is been made during National Championships so
that they shall not surprise at National & know exactly where a jumper can score well. It is
been seen normally that the jumpers reach to disqualification very soon without knowing the
reason for it. Even now by answering the polls JRFI technical department can easily reach to
the conclusion that weather the amendment made in Rule’s are acceptable or not.
This is not all at every FY JRFI is preparing few of its Guidelines which are been distributed
by a proper channel & this will even not cost a single penny for them. The Guidelines
prepared in 2010-11 are as follows :
1. Basic Double Dutch Training for Coach’s
2. Jump Rope Skills (Level 1 & 2)
3. Jumper’s Guideline
4. Log Book
 Benefits of Jump Rope
1. Here in India most of the children do single bounce (to have the rope swings
one time under the feet ) without knowing the fact that it has more than 950 skills & it
is a sport. They are just doing it for fun & trying to get indulge into the core of Jump
Rope. There are few events like freestyle, Double dutch freestyle, Fusion Style where
the jumpers are free to do anything with Rope on Music.
2. When children practice it with their friends, it develops a sense of teamwork

and social skills in you. It makes them more vigilant and alert. It increases your
attention skills. Skipping enhances flexibility and athletic abilities. It improves your
reflexes, balance and posture. Jump Rope is the game of endurance, speed and
sportsmanship.
3. Physical activity is a major risk factor of cardiovascular diseases. Jump Rope

can help your heart whether it’s included in Exercise program or daily routine.
4. Physical activity is also good for brain, feeding it glucose & Oxygen all of
which make easier for Children of all ages learn & memorize
5. It improves the figure by tightening flabby muscles and loose flesh on the
arms, thighs, buttocks and calves. Prolonged skipping improves the bust and posture,
and combined with a calorie-controlled diet, a skipping program will help to shed
pounds in ladies.
6. The boxer needs to be fast on his feet. Skipping will greatly increase speed
and lightness on his feet. 10 second and 30 second bursts of speed skipping are
needed and can be easily achieved.
7. The Jump Rope is the most cost effective sport in respect of requirement of
accessories & ground Facility (as for this you just need 4 x 4 m” surface).
8. It strengthens the stamina of the individual and helps the obese to lose weight
and increases the appetite of anorexic people. It is so effective in burning calories that
an hour of skipping rope will make you burn up to 1000 calories.

10. The backbone of all sport is Jump rope as it helps to enhance the endurance &
stamina which puts the basic foundation of all sport. It is found that Jump rope is
adopted by most of the sport without knowing the fact that it is just not the exercise.
 Misconception & Truths

The Jump Rope is not new sport at all for India but still it is always surrounded by many
misconceptions. The Jump Rope is been associated as a girl sport by most of the people
& even by others it is been taken as high impact exercise which may leads to knee
injury. But the truth is completely contradictory. The Jump Rope is the sport which helps
in making the muscles & bones stronger. Jump Rope also show the way to burn more
calories than do most aerobic activities & reduces risk to Osteoporosis which is found
more common in Old age. Jump Rope needs the coordination especially in Double Dutch
event. It is to a degree depends on turner & to the rest of measure it depends on Jumper.
Few people are afraid of it because of the reason that they have lack of co-ordination &
feel humiliated whenever they made miss even if it is minor. The best way is whenever
you think about Jump Rope just don’t make too much hurry to jump into next more
tougher skills. Jump Rope is been done only when your mind is calm & enjoy your routine
thoroughly.

each other and must measure 12m x 12m
 Don’t wear baggy clothing that can come apart, drop to the floor, or otherwise

 Equipment’s (Correct Jump Rope)

There are basically 2 types of practice rope available. These Rope are also known as
Licorice rope. The lightweight rope are been used for speed as they has minimal air
resistance while heavy weight ropes has more air resistance & it is been used for
increasing power. The licorice ropes are made up of PVC (Poly vinyl Chloride). It is been
suggested that when a jumper is making a good score with licorice rope (Here the good
score means 55 right feet count), the time comes when s/he should switch from licorice
to Cable Rope which is more aerodynamically stronger & provides lesser air resistance.
And hence, improves the score of the jumper.
The length of the rope should be right for your height. Stand on the centre of the rope,
and lift the handles upward. The point where the handles meet the rope should be level
with your armpits. Some types of rope allow you to cut them down to size but if your
rope is the wrong length don’t despair! Tie knots near the handles to make alterations
Any kind of Rope can be used but battery powered ropes are illegal in National
Level Competition / Championship.
Double Dutch Ropes are between 4 and 6 meter long.
Long Ropes are 10 meter long.
IDEAL ROPE LENGTHS are:
Rope Length Suitable For heights

7 ft. Up to - 4'10"
8 ft. 4' 10" - 5' 3"
9 ft. 5’ 4" - 5' 10"
10 ft. 5' 10" - 6'6"
You can use this table as rough guide to adjust your rope
Points to ponder
 For novices, a beaded rope is recommended because it holds its shape and is easier
to control than a lightweight cloth or vinyl rope.
 Adjust the rope by holding the handles and stepping on the rope.
 Shorten the rope so the handles reach your armpits.
 Wear properly fitted athletic shoes, preferably cross-training shoes.
