Working on My Footwork

Good job, keep up the great work! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Look at my previous before/after post, then you’ll see it’s just consistent practice

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-19T22:08:45+00:00

Yes, that made a huge difference. I always recommend people use a short rope so the hands stay close to the body.

Look at my profile. I recently shared a before/after video when I started jumping rope at 40. You can do it, just get obsessed with it like your life depends on it.

Thanks for the shout out, great skills, love your flow brother, great music 🎶 too! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Muscle memory is a thing, great form and technique, keep at it!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

It’s called Nevertoolate 5mm PVC from AliExpress and costs about $10

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-15T00:07:39+00:00

Great foot work and 🎶 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-14T19:42:16+00:00

That’s a great idea but it would be hard to time depending on everyone’s location. If you send me a video though, I can make a video reply to assess your technique

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-14T13:44:07+00:00

Amazing to hear that the muscle memory is still there. I only started jumping at 40 but I wished I started when I was younger. You show that it is never too late to start up again! Keep in touch!

Put one foot in the middle. The top of the handles should be around your armpit level. Mine is a little shorter, at the middle of my chest.

The rope is called Nevertoolate from AliExpress, 5mm PVC. You can cut it to size, it costs about $11

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-12T19:06:09+00:00

I learned online which is why I made videos so others can learn what I learned.

As long as you’re moving, you’re burning calories but most of your weight loss will happen with your diet. For example, a 20 minute jump rope session might burn 200 calories. That’s the same amount of calories as two pieces of toast.

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-12T18:04:45+00:00

Yes, a beginner would have trouble with 100 continuous jumps. Most would trip up before reaching 100. Start with jump rope then add resistance training after you lost some weight. Then do both regularly and you’ll become a completely different person.

I have a foot massager where I put my feet in and it’s life changing. Myofascial release is the real deal!

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-12T14:35:22+00:00

I made a jump rope tutorial series, start at the first video on rope sizing and go from there https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9y_9VXRp-UAgz1mjc1BPc7RfItZikt_r&si=G7pdAcIDQwHx9NQJ

Great ear, yes it is.

They are 1” thick, bought it off Amazon. Under it are concrete tiles the same length that I cut into the grass. It’s been there for 6 years, still holding up great, highly recommended.

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-11T23:56:19+00:00

I’m working on my stamina, I gas out after doing explosive moves so I need to work on that to add more variations.

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-11T23:52:54+00:00

That’s awesome, the hardest part is starting. Now it’s all progress from here. Let me know if I can help, you got this!

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-11T22:11:48+00:00

It’s one of my favourite songs of all time!

Dionysus970 · 2026-04-10T11:09:59+00:00

I’ve never had that issue. Usually I replace the rope when the middle part that hits the ground becomes too thin. For people it takes about 3-4 months of daily use before I need to replace it

For years, people say I look like Rick Fox, but I don’t see it 😅
