I think one workout that oftentimes gets overlooked is jumping rope. There is a reason if you have ever seen a boxer training, this is part of their workout regime. However, a good jump rope is hard to find. I have searched amazon for plenty of jump ropes, but I have not found any that have not broken after a few weeks for a reasonable price. Yes, you can buy one of the jump ropes that cost $100 and they will work perfectly, but not all of us have a budget like that. However, the worst jump rope that I have found is on amazon and it is here. This might have been the worst purchase of my life. In the first few days of using this, the cable started to break at the bottom, and then the next thing I know the grip was falling off as well. As well as this, the length you try to keep this jump rope at does not stay there and the screw on top broke for me within a week or two.
I see something like this as a huge problem because if there are no good jump ropes for a reasonable price, that is a huge predicament. The next thing I want to talk about is how all the jump ropes I have used made of PVC material all do the same thing. They all start to break on the bottom where it is hitting the ground. So, if I cannot use a jump rope made of this material outside, where am I supposed to use it. These cheap jump ropes are made of cheap materials and they all show it quickly. If you want to have a good jump rope be prepared to spend a good amount of money.
