How to do it

1. Stand with your feet together, holding a jump rope with the handles in each hand. Position the rope behind you, ready to swing it over your head.
2. Swing the rope over your head and, as it passes under your feet, perform a small jump, landing on your forefeet.
3. Immediately perform a second smaller bounce while keeping the rope in motion and preparing for the next swing.
4. Continue with the double bounce rhythm, maintaining a smooth and controlled motion for the desired duration or number of repetitions.

Form tips

• Focus on quick, controlled movements, keeping your jumps low to minimize impact on your joints.
• Use your wrists to swing the rope, rather than your arms, to maintain a smooth and efficient motion.
• Wear supportive footwear to protect your feet and ankles during the exercise.
