Boxing Jump Rope Drills

The jump rope is a very important exercise for boxing. It helps with your coordination it helps you with your conditioning and it could also be used for your warm up or cool down for your workouts. I’m just going to show you a couple new drills that you can do on the jump rope – keep in mind that it’s practice at first so it might be hard to get just don’t get frustrated just keep practicing and pretty soon it will all come in real smoothly and naturally. So first, of course, you can do your regular movement your regular jump. Notice I’m moving one and two one and two and the reason I’m doing that because when you’re boxing you’re moving one and two you’re moving back and forth and you’re stepping. So you’re always shifting your weight fifty fifty fifty fifty, so that’s a good base for jump rope. You want to go one two one two one two, right there. Let’s practice, right there. As you start advancing you can start fitting up your legs, you can start doing crosses, you can start doing double. There’s so many different drills that you can do boxing, you can do drops and all of this is going to help you with your coordination in the ring, and to be light on your feet. It’s very important to be light on your feet when you’re boxing so you can glide through the ring and you can stop when you want and that’s called coordination and that’s what the jump rope is for.
