Best jump rope?
Depends on what you’re looking for. If you’re just using it to warm up, most any jump rope should be fine, vinyl, beaded, leather, or coated wire. If you want to get a workout, check out a plastic tubing Thai rope or one of the various weighted ropes (weighted handles or a jump rope where the rope itself is weighted). If you’re looking for speed, a coated wire rope is what you want.
