Double Unders
Another classic conditioning tool. The double under also develops agility, balance, coordination and speed. Click HERE for a demo with explanation. A challenging movement for many, be sure to watch the learning progression and read the scaling suggestions below!
Scaling/Substitution Suggestions:
If you have a double under, but are still learning – Scale down the number of reps and/or count your missed attempts as succesful reps as well.
Substitute a run that lasts a similar length of time. For example, 50 double unders and 200 meter run both last around a minute.
Substitute low box jumps that can be performed quickly – typically a similar number of reps as the double unders
Perform double or triple the number of reps of the Basic Bounce as double unders
