Fengsu Skipping Rope with Counter and Foam Handles

A skipping rope with counter and soft foam handles, for adults and children who want to know exactly how many jumps they’ve done. A small mechanical counter in one handle keeps score as you skip, so you can set targets, beat yesterday’s total and keep a simple record of your workouts.

Skipping is one of the easiest cardio workouts to fit into a busy day. Ten minutes on the roof or in the courtyard gets your heart going, and the counter turns it into a game you want to win. Because the counter is mechanical, it needs no batteries and is ready whenever you are.

The counter is a simple mechanical one, so treat it as a close guide: if the rope catches your feet or you stop mid-turn, a jump may not register. It’s ideal for comparing one session with the next.

Getting started

• Stand on the middle of the rope: the handles should reach your armpits. If it’s too long, tie a knot near each handle.
• Try 1 minute of skipping and 1 minute of rest, five times.
• Land softly on the balls of your feet, on a flat floor or mat, and wear sports shoes.

Tip: set a weekly target, such as 1,000 jumps, and split it over a few days. This skipping rope with counter shows you exactly how close you are.
