How to Jump Rope Like a BOXER Step by Step | Tony Jeffries

Watch me break down amazing boxing techniques

Learning how to jump rope like a boxer is very important. This is regardless of whether you are boxing for fitness or fighting. It helps you improve your overall speed and gives your body a great workout. All this will put you in great shape as a boxer. O can personally testify to the fact that jumping rope has made my feet much faster. This gave me a lot of edge as I fought my opponents as a professional boxer. In this video, I am going to share with you how to jump rope like a boxer.

My name is Tony Jeffries, Olympic medalist and retired professional boxer. I am now co-owner of Box 'N Burn, two boxing fitness gyms in Los Angeles, as well as the Box 'N Burn Academy where we train professional boxing trainers. During my career I won the national championship 7 times, and also became European champion.

In this video, I am going to teach you How to Jump Rope like a Boxer.

There are actually 4 different variations of Jump Rope.
1. Initial Stage to Beginner
2. Beginner to Intermediate and
3. Intermediate to Advance.

If you have never jumped rope before, this video is for you. The first thing you need to do to get started is checking the length of the rope. As you do that, make sure you adjust the rope to be just a bit higher than the height of your hip.

Try and be positive as you get started. Avoid thoughts that make you feel like you can never do it, or you just can't do it. You probably won't jump rope very well on your first day but don't let that stop you. Just as any other skill in life, you will get better at it with practice. My current ability to jump rope was not built overnight so you shouldn’t expect that either.

How do you start Jumping rope?

You start with the rope behind your feet and hands in front. From here, all you're going to do is turn your wrists. I often see people who try and turn their arm as well, but that's just too much. You are just going to turn your wrist slightly. First, I am going to do a bigger turn with my arms to get the rope around and then it's going to be small turns with my wrist from there.

Now please go ahead, watch the video carefully and try to follow through. By the time you reach the end, you will have learnt How to Jump Rope Like a Boxer

I'm just gonna say this, your videos really helped me get out of a dark place. I was depressed and living a sedentary lifestyle, now I'm working out every single day and getting better and better with my punches, not only did discovering boxing help me get myself into shape, it gave me a way to healthily release my anger and stress. You have truly changed my life for the better and I thank you greatly for it, Keep on rocking man!

At nearly 50, I picked up a pair of boxing gloves and now am in the condition of my adult life. I feel 25. Thanks you and others out there.

[stevelanza]

I've watched several of your videos, including this one today because I'm looking for a new rope--but wanted to say how much I appreciate your straight-forward information. No ego, no drama, just helping people out. Much appreciated.

My first day going to a Boxing Gym, the coach had me doing jump ropes before anything else. I prepared for whatever I thought I could, like handwrapping and a little on punching form so I wouldn't be wasting time or using too much arm power, but I didn't even think of jump ropes. I've never jump roped for as long as I can remember in my 22 years, so my dumbass was trying to get the hang of it for what felt like an hour but I didn't give up, didn't want to quit and most of all, didn't want to be scared away from the gentleman sport of Boxing by simple embarassment. My top count of jumps went from 0 to just 3, but it was progress.

Unfortunately, I busted one of my fingers catching a medicine ball the wrong way, and then my city ordered another lockdown, closing the gyms again. My doctor told me to go easy on hands for about three weeks, but I didn't give up. As soon as I could grip things with that finger again, I bought a jump rope and started practicing around my neighborhood. I just finished today's practice and I'm making progress.

Then I saw this video, and its like a godsend. I've been watching your other videos to help myself catch up so to find this video on accident was one hell of a coincidence. This channel is a great supplement to training and while I doubt you'll see this comment, Tony, I really appreciate these videos and the lessons in them.

Respect from Canada and the Philippines!

[thecarpfather]

As a bodybuilder who has spent my entire life training to compete at my best I've since started to learn how to box its something I've wanted to do for quite some time but my focus was on bodybuilding last year I joined gym with a very accomplished boxer who has started learning me obviously I am like a robot with punches you could take a nap between but after a few lessons I've really started to appreciate the fitness levels and dedication it takes to be good at this I genuinely haven't done anything so demanding physically or mentally before skipping is one of the things I do daily and I've started logging my progress on video all be it small I'm progressing I'm the least aggressive guy ever but this is my new passion to become super fit flexible and down size and enjoy life thank you for this video it's very helpful

[smellyhippi]

Definately the best way to do it, i was never a fan of skipping and put it off for a long time but progressively started doing the double jump then moved onto the single jump and now i love it, it feels so much better when you get into rythm, i'm yet to do in tricks but always learning 🤜🤜

[justacat]

Ur literally the only guy I trust the most when it comes to boxing

[TheEleatic]

Tony, I’ve worked with plenty of great teachers in education for many years. Your clarity, enthusiasm, and knowledge in all of your videos is fantastic. Excellent instruction.

[hellenic]

Absolutely love your videos Tony! I know you covered some stuff on foot work and angles but as a beginner/intermediate the problem I have is finding the rhythm and getting comfortable moving around the ring a lot.
Would be awesome if you could make a video explaining some techniques to improve on that.

[nicholasmccormack]

Honestly this is the only tutorial that helped me ive been skipping now for about 2 months ive so far lost 3 kg

[lwc]

I started boxing a short while ago, after training in MMA for a few months. Boxing has completely changed my life. It helped me cut out sugar in my diet, which in turn lead to having more energy, better sleep and better diet due to my taste buds changing. Boxing put me on a new course of being way more active, healthier in my brain, stronger in body, and way more disciplined. I am less angry and more stress free. Plus my body feels like its in my mid 20s again. You haven't got to compete, even hitting the pads, bags, and the occasional spar makes you feel absolutely amazing.

Even when promoting his products he gives an alternative, love this guy.
