Is there a specific type of rope I should get? I would assume the hardware store is probably the best place to buy this. Do you wrap the ends of the rope in electrical tape or something? Also, do you guys know of any good jump rope routines? I'm also wondering how often I should be jumping rope and for what duration. Also, how do you determine the correct length of rope? I've heard that if you stand on the center of the rope you should be able to touch the ends to your armpits. I guess I could just try it out and see what feels best. Thanks for the replies.
