Fast wrists

The second pass of a double comes from the wrists speeding up, not the arms.

Half speed. Tap to pause.

How

1. Singles, at an easy height.
2. Every fourth jump, flick the wrists hard for one faster turn — no extra height.
3. Feel the rope speed up in your fingers, not your shoulders.

How much

3 × 40 seconds

What it fixes

• Hands flying out wide — “Hands in your pockets.”
• Hands creeping up — “Thumbs to your pockets.”
• Jumping higher than the rope needs — “Jump the rope, not the moon.”

Wrists turn the rope. Arms just hold the wrists somewhere sensible.
