jump ropes

Handles with twine

Jump ropes are lengths of rope or cord swung over the head and under the feet for exercise or children's play.

The activity builds coordination and cardiovascular endurance: The boxer warmed up with jump ropes before sparring.

Playground games often involve two people turning a longer rope while others jump in rhythm, sometimes to chanted rhymes.
