Bouncy singles
The rhythm every double is built on: small, quick, and the same every time.
Half speed. Tap to pause.
Single unders vs double unders: compare the rope passes and try the transition
How
- Singles on the balls of your feet, heels never quite touching.
- Jump just high enough for the rope. Quiet landings.
- Hands by your hips, wrists doing the turning.
How much
3 × 45 seconds, 30 seconds rest
What it fixes
- Uneven rhythm — “Same bounce, every bounce.”
- Parking on the floor — “Hot floor. Quick feet.”
- Kicking your feet up — “Pogo stick, not a frog.”
