I have a big question that no one has answer to. I am 106 kgs and have flat foot. Although i have started wearing flat feet insoles, single unders hurt my muscles after 200. And, when I try double, i have to jump higher. I want to know if I should be practising double unders or give up till i lose weight. PS: I am not losing weight despite regular workout and healthy meals. It's my sleep that's hurting and resisting weight loss.

forth month into crossfit, started my journey with DU 3 months ago while being 103kg x 1.83m. Today I did 30 DU unbroken, after the daily workout, and now I'm looking forward for 50! There is a LOT that goes into learning DU, but best tip is just to practise practise practise. Buy your own rope, adjust to the correct lenght, and every time you go to the Box spend 10 minutes before or after the WOD only on DU.

Great tips!

Thanks to Wodprep I got my first 6 double under reps in a row yesterday! Thank you for this video!

[@WODprep]

So awesome! Hopefully this video helps you get to 20 very soon!

Thank you for having me, Ben!

[@WODprep]

Pleasure, as always! What's next?

[@thatfitfriend]

@@WODprep How about I teach YOU how to back flip..?

[@WODprep]

Some really great cues! Having worked with some high level athletes, I would focus more on the subtle aspects of rope jumping rather than on the sheer number of double unders. I want to give Jake the foundation necessary for him to dramatically improve. I would not have Jake use a cable rope as cable ropes essentially allow superior athletes to muscle (ie, cheat) the movement. I’d also shoot video so Jake can see the challenges he’s encountering in terms of wrist rotation, turning mechanics, timing, etc.

Great video...I can do DUs but it was still fun to watch so I can learn how to help my friends get their DUs.

[@bryanmarlar229]

Awesome video.

[@normaschnepp3909]

How important is for me is to lessen the sound of the rope in the ground, it helps a lot!!

[@iguanoutom]

Merci pour votre aide je vais écouter vos conseils et essayer de les mettre en pratique car je galère depuis longtemps 😀

[@iamarnold1065]

I’ve been practising for months now and I’m really struggling. I just keep doing a fast single so wonder if it’s my wrist action/hand speed - please help! I’ve tried everything and watched so many videos!

[@jilllitman8520]

OMG this was rediculous how easy it was for him. I wish

[@vanillaghetto]

Jake: Just my two cents worth...I think that beanieguy needed to work on his rebounding jump, and then smooth single under FIRST. As you saw...when you asked him to do fast single unders...he didn't have that. Also, his wrist-work...versus forearms...needed some help, too.

[@WODprep]

I will certainly relay this message to beanieguy himself

[@michaeljackman4566]

I noticed he did the dolphin kick like me and I can’t seem to get rid of it.

[@lisam-q2696]

These help ++!✅

[@JackyHorror]

He’s kicking up towards his bum when he goes for doubles.. he needs to just jump straight up And down like normal singles

[@ozzythegreat88]

i can only do 2 fml
