The American Council on Exercise suggests these tips to help you enjoy a safe, fun workout by jumping rope:
Keep a firm but gentle grip on the handles at the end of the rope.
Tuck your elbows in near your body, and relax your shoulders.
Slightly bend your knees, and use your wrist to swing the rope in a smooth arc over your head.
Keep your head up and your back straight as you jump. Don't curve your back forward.
Don't jump too high, which can adversely affect your ankles and knees.
