A while back I used to work as a jump rope athlete and have not used a jump rope in more than 10 years.
I think that the problem was that I was very nervous at the time (because the test was the first time I had competed in a jump rope competition) and I just got so stressed out that it got to the point where I just didn't have the energy for the exam, so I didn't train properly.
But I still have a few weeks to train properly and I will be doing that. I will use some of the tips and strategies that I learned during my jumprope training. I did a little bit of jumprope training when I was young and never quite made it to the next level. In fact I spent the majority of my time getting up in the morning and going to sleep. I was too self critical and I thought I could get better but nothing ever came from these efforts. I would do a little bit of jumprope training and start getting very nervous around the time I would take the test. Then after that I would get some good results, but would put down the books and go sit on the couch and zone out until it was time to take the exam again.

My goal for the jumprope training is to put on muscle mass in the form of endurance. That is because one of my goals is to improve my score on the jump rope competition after jumprope training. Training will be 4 times per week and I will focus on double-unders.
