Why is jumping rope so important for boxers?

Boxers significantly develop their coordination by skipping rope. Coordination is both mental and physical, working different body parts together at the same time. Brain, arms, hands, legs, feet. It's ''all systems go'' when skipping rope! Skipping rope is the most important thing to learn for the boxing discipline. If you can't skip properly you can't box. Nothing beats the rope for timing, endurance, coordination and muscle tone. It is particularly good for development of timing. It teaches you how to use your upper and lower body in coordination. Most trainers demand their boxers to skip rope for good reason. Using a heavy rope, as with the duvide Jumpropes, also gives you the benefit of building up your shoulder muscles, which are crucial to keep your guard up. Inevitably most boxing trainers will point out that ''you cannot win without a strong defence''.
