Good Workout, the DVD's could be better,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Pink JumpSnap, The Ropeless Jump Rope - Calorie Counter, DVD Workouts, Hand Weights, & Travel Bag (Pink) (Misc.)
I actually like this product. The only thing missing when you buy from Amazon instead of direct from their site, is the 16 minute DVD. But this comes with the 8 minute and the 12 minute workouts on one DVD.I bought it to change up my cardio as the treadmill was getting kind of stale. I normally do 45 minutes on the treadmill, so I thought doing the 8 & 12 back to back wouldn't really be a big deal. Wrong!! The 8 minute kinda kicked my butt! AND there are breaks every 2 minutes along the way! I think it's going to be a least a week or so before I tackle the 12 minute one, let alone doing them both back to back. So as far as the workout, I don't think you will be disappointed. Now for the prodution value.... it isn't bad......but seriously, the music, for me was pathetic. After listening to the great music to workout to with TurboJam(which I love) this sounded like bad porn music to me. But..there is a timer/counter clock as the workout progresses, so once you get used to the jump routines, you can always hit mute and listen to your own music. I only wish the camera had wide shots of them jumping so you can see the next moves and not lose rhythm. For some reason the camera likes to get the lead jumper from the waist up.. and then close ups of the footwork (which after a while of watching feet move like that, it becomes surreal). If you read their site, then you know what the product can do. It was easy set-up. Just make sure you have a tiny screwdriver to unscrew the part for the batteries and you are set to go. I hope the manufacture takes this advice and makes some better workout DVD's as this can really be a great way to get in shape. I would recommend it.

It will definitely get your heart pumping,

This review is from: Pink JumpSnap, The Ropeless Jump Rope - Calorie Counter, DVD Workouts, Hand Weights, & Travel Bag (Pink) (Misc.)
I just purchased the jump snap and I am pleased with the product. I'm a 43 year old male and I need to get in shape. The 8 minute workout was not so easy, but I was doing some of it at my own slower pace. The product is a good aerobic workout without the clumsy tripping of real rope jumping. I plan to use this every day to get in shape and lose weight. I like the fact that it's portable and can be done anywhere. This will be a daily part of my workout. I also lke the fact that you don't have to spend a lot of time, in order to get your heart pumping. I know in a perfect world you want to get in an hour of exercise a day, but the way I look at it with products like the Jump Snap and the Body Blade which I have been using for years are a great way to get your daily workout in half the time and still get in some exercise instead of doing nothing. For instance, I like to watch T.V., so I would pick up the jump snap and do it while watching my favoriate t.v. show. I get the benefits of watching my T.V. and getting some exercise in also. For the new year I plan on being a health couch potato.

Convenient,

This review is from: Pink JumpSnap, The Ropeless Jump Rope - Calorie Counter, DVD Workouts, Hand Weights, & Travel Bag (Pink) (Misc.)
I would like to begin by saying that I had reserves about this product - I didn't think it would be that much different from a regular jump rope - at least not $50 different. So I purchased the product on the pretense that I could always return it. Well, I haven't returned it and I use it everyday! I can jump rope inside while watching a dvd or listening to music (without an mp3 player) and I don't have to worry about hitting anything or knocking anything over.
To address a couple of things: #1) You probably should find a low-intensity exercise if jumping rope hurts your joints. Possibly water aerobics or even regular aerobics - certainly not running or jumping. Do not blame this product for your joint injuries. #2) When I first started using the jumpsnap, my left ball bounced around aimlessly, like many other users. There is a trick to getting both balls to spin at the same time and in perfect circles. With a regular jump rope you use just your wrists to spin the rope - this isn't necessary with the jumpsnap. If you keep your arms almost still and jump, and with the slightest effort move the handles in teeny circles, they'll spin correctly. This also provides a better upper-body workout than a regular jump rope. #3) I'm not sure if JumpSnap, LLC has changed the design since many have commented, but the little balls are protected by a foam shell - not how it's shown in the picture. I haven't gotten smacked by them yet - I don't stop suddenly though. But the foam seems to have been added to prevent this. Overall, I wish it didn't cost $50 - I would price it at $20 - but it is worth it to purchase, so long as you use it. Jumping rope is great exercise and perfect for people who don't have all the time in the world! Happy jumping!
