Just wanted to post an interesting link found in today’s edition of Army Times. I believe Dennis brought it in so will definitely have to give him the credit for noticing it. Here it is:
Does anyone have a suggestion on a brand of jump rope if I’m going to buy one to practice DU’s at home? Karen mentioned a specific one to me Saturday, but I was so wiped from the WOD that it literally went in one ear and out the other. 😉 Maybe all jump ropes are the same…. I dunno, don’t have a lot of experience with it, so thought I’d ask for suggestions. Thanks, guys.
http://www.buyjumpropes.net has them for $13.95 with no tax or shipping….What’s a couple of dollars, I know, but, hey, at this rate, maybe we can get some more at the gym too….=o)

Rogue Fitness has some of the speed ropes that I like to use at the gym.
I don’t know if they are the “best” but worth looking at…..

Those wire speed ropes are great. Can be found at rouge or againfaster.com for pretty cheap.
Thanks, guys!
Thanks Z. How is the hand healing up?
Daniel–been there with the tear it sucks, take the time off it requires to heal.
cast off today but not allowed to pick stuff up for 2 more months.
Does anyone have experience with any affiliates in Nashville? I have a friend there looking to get started with CF.
