I have a flat foot so I prefer a jump rope because my foot won't hurt, but whatever floats your boat user.

also, try to find a speed rope with a metal cable, not that plastic shit.

But why though, not OP but won't that shit just tear the webbing between my toes
>inb4 wear shoes and get gud
Regardless of that, why is metal>plastic

not that user but
heavier wire = better arms
I disagree though, it can fuck up your toes

Do both pussy

Why is it if you jump rope in place, you look alright. And if you run around the neighborhood, you look alright. But if you jump rope while running around the neighborhood, people think you're insane?

This and Boxing. Feels great when you get a handle on footwork. Throwing punches makes you hella tired.

I do both. I run around my neighborhood on good days, but jump rope if I just want to stay inside. Both are good, switching between both every other day makes cardio less boring

I prefer jump rope. Feels like I can get a more intense workout in a shorter time, without going full sprint down the street.

Dont do metal as a begginer, unless you want to destroy your toes. If you want arm strength, get one with weighted handles.

jumping rope is imo the best cardio. you get good rhythm 0 chance of injury (unless you fall over) and you can get good at those cool tricks--youtube.com/watch?v=Hqwku_iHRv8

Diet

It's because you can spin the rope faster

i'm i used 2 plastic ropes, one i used for speed jumping broke because it was too thin, and the other is too heavy for doing double unders and speed jumping in general.
Metal ropes just last longer, and IMO they are more worth because the price (not too expensive) and for the tricks you can do.

Jump rope is more bang for the buck. Burns around the same calories as running but offers more benefits than running.

Anybody got an Amazon link for a good quality jump rope?

this

Niether, bicycle is correct answer.

I DON'T look alright when I jump rope in place, though. I always wind up spinning in circles and then I get dizzy.

Tell me, why do I do this?

Literally the first results for "jump rope"

It's all manufactured by the same factory, different "brands" just pay the factory to put their logo on the jump rope and then they hope for the best.

This is how a huge amount of business is run, especially in goods where brand has very little influence

Don't know where else to post this, so fuck it.
I run frequently, I've been doing to for years now, but last Friday I cam down with the flu, and and to take Saturday and Sunday off from any sort of physical work. Monday I felt somewhat better, so I tried to run a 1.5 mile, something that I consider easy. I struggled to complete it. Today, I tried to do a 2 mile run, also usually easy and under the assumption that I'd have no issue, and I struggled to complete again.
I'm not even sick anymore, what's happening? Is my body just finally quitting?

Nah your body just isn't in top shape since the sickness, have you never been sick before? Work back up to it. 2 days off and 2 days off being sick are two very different things.

Been sick, but never felt like this immediately afterward.

Like I said, work back up to it. If you can't get back to how you were within two weeks go to the doctor.

Boxing is the GOAT.

Best shape of my life, bodybuilding as a natty is the biggest meme.

It can take a week to get properly back from a flu. Only other advice I can give is to make sure you're eating and drinking enough. I stopped my last run 5 minutes in because I felt like I was gonna pass out. Didn't eat much that day and I could feel it. I've had many runs where I automatically didn't think I would make it because I either was tired, hungry, sore, sick, etc. Coming into it thinking you'll fail probably doesn't help the runs. Running's very mental, but you probably know that since you've been running for a bit.

So jump rope is the same as running?

All forms of cardio are the same, it's just what you prefer?

Both at the same time. It's instinctually easy

cbf jumping rope outside, how effective is jumping on the spot?
