What kind of jump rope should I use?

Submitted by AdoteyMary on Fri, 2009-06-05 08:39

I just ordered the Cardio 1: Jump Rope Workout DVD and I'm wondering what kind of jump rope I should purchase and from where.  I looked at the SSL youtube highlight video and saw a thin and a supper thick jump rope being used.  Can you offer some insight into what types of ropes are used and where they can be puchased?
 

Thanks everyone!!  I will

I have a variety of Lifeline brand jump ropes and they work great. The beaded rope is my favorite for general conditioning and the weighted speed rope (1.5 lbs.) adds a considerable challenge to core stability.
