Lifeline JumpRope

My first rope failed after just over a month and half use. After a VERY annoying process of trying to get a warranty replacement through Amazon which was listed as "the seller" and not having any way to contact Pivotal 5, Inc - I called Lifeline direct and in 5 minutes - a new one was on its way. My suggestion - buy direct through Lifeline. Same price and if you have any issues - they are resolved immediately.As far as the rope itself - I have been using the Lifeline beaded rope for years and have used much lighter, weighted ropes in clubs or hotel weight rooms. This one was considerably better than any previous version I had used in terms of the bearings and motion of the rope. It was also considerably heavier and I will probably get the heaviest one offered after using it (1.25 lb). My one issue is the size of the handles. They feel "big" and do not conform to the hand well. I slightly narrow diameter and a foam wrap would probably greatly enhance the feel.It is necessary to let the rope hang for several days prior to using. These weighted ropes have a "memory" and the coil takes several days before it loosens up. Also recommend hanging this over two hooks (instead of one) with handles down to keep the "shape" of the rope.

I love this rope. It's well built and suits me fine. I train with it almost everyday as a warm up before I use weights. The package came with with a training book and schedule which was nice. Whats sets this rope apart from others, is that its weight is in the rope, which makes it easier on the wrists. Moreover, you can adjust the rope to your liking, which many weighted ropes can't do. I really don't understand why people are complaining about it being coiled. They obviously have no imagination. Just hang it on a door and the kinks will be fixed. I added some ankle weights to the ends to speed up the process. I highly recommend this.

great rope but took 14 days to arrive

My favorite jumprope

I like the weight of the rope. Adjusting the rope to the desired length is fairly easy. Unfortunately, the string that is threaded through the beads doesn't stand the test of time and wore out in only a few months. I found another product on Amazon, the Gaoykai weighted jump rope, that I like much better and found to be more durable.

This rope is superb. If you are a girl, you will feel this, and if you are a guy, same.The handles are a little to big... should be a tad smaller. Excellent rope though.

This is the second one of these my 20 yr old son has purchased and I'm irritated he repurchased the first one rather than return. Within days, it cracked and broke AND the handle became detached.

I read all the reviews about it being a very stiff piece of plastic and I don't disagree. However, IT WORKS! I store it hanging from a hook in my garage, so it is always in the long position. In the winter, the "rope" was especially stiff and in the warmer weather, it's more pliable, but in all cases, it works just fine. The bearing enable it to rotate smoothly and the handles are thick enough to allow a good grip. The rope is not one of those super heavy ropes that you can only turn a few times; this one is less than a pound, but you can feel the difference, and use it for lengthy jumprope sessions. Bottom line, it works well and you will see the results if you use it!
