The Jump Rope Podcast

Ever wonder how a self-professed “elephant on a rope” can transform into a nimble-footed jump rope ninja?

Wonder no more! In Episode 18 of The Jump Rope Podcast, your host Dizzy (@dizzyskips) sits down with the legendary Eddie Adby (@eddie.jumps) to chat all things jump rope, skipping rope, and fun fitness.

Get ready to laugh harder than you boxer-step because this episode bursts with playful sarcasm, pun-tastic banter, and even a touch of rope-fail commiseration.

Eddie shares how he went from nursing an Achilles injury to obsessing over every crossover, EB swing, and fancy footwork trick in the jump rope cosmos.

We explore why “shorter ropes mean bigger gains,” how to outsmart your own arms when they start flying like a deranged helicopter, and the secret sauce behind boxing-style skipping.

  • “Celebrate them small wins!” Eddie

If you’ve ever felt like the rope is out to sabotage you (we see you, tangles and trip-ups!), this conversation proves there’s hope.

Tune in, have a laugh, and learn how to level-up your jump rope game—one swing at a time.

Jump Rope, Tricks, and a Very Protective Dog – With Patty Reynolds (Ep. 19)

Jump rope: the ultimate cardio workout, mental health booster, and—if you’re Patty Reynolds (@pattyjumps)—a sport that requires the full approval of Artemis, her German Shepherd bodyguard. 🐕💪🏽

In this episode of The Jump Rope Podcast, host Dizzy (@dizzyskips) chats with Patty about how she went from struggling with the basics to mastering (or at least constantly improving) mic releases, EB swings, and trick combos.

But it wasn’t all textbook—her jump rope journey involved an Amazon rope, an impromtu Target bag costume, and some hilarious backyard training sessions under Artemis’ watchful eye.

Patty shares how jump rope transformed her mental and physical health, helping her balance long 12-hour shifts as a pharmacist while keeping up with three kids.

She also opens up about the incredible support she’s found in the jump rope community, from her first interactions with Eddie Jumps (@eddie_jumps) to becoming part of a worldwide skipping family. (By the way, Eddie was on Episode 18—go check that out!)

Expect laughs, jump rope wisdom, and maybe even a little inspiration to pick up a rope yourself. 🎙️🔥
