A user skipping the jumprope must manipulate both the rope and the weights. The quantity of weight, length of jumprope and the position of hand grips on the bar are all adjustable by the user. In one embodiment, the weights are radially offset from the bar, requiring the user to manipulate an unbalanced weight while skipping the rope. | |
