I’m sure you’d like to learn more about this amazing technology… Well, you’re in the right place! This post provides you with all there is to know about smart ropes. So, fasten your seatbelts!
Why Do You Need A Smart Rope?
I know, by now, you must already be wondering, “do people really need a smart rope?” Yes, you do, and here are some of the reasons you need it fast.
Unable to Go to The Gym Due to COVID-19
First among these is COVID-19.
Remember that at the wrap-up of 2019, a deadly disease hit us. In the following months, the whole world had to take a break. We were all confined to our homes. And all we could just do was sit around, watch TV, and sometimes do some work when we had the chance.
Remember how you couldn’t get out to get groceries except you “geared up?” like it was in the movies. It was surreal! We were (and are still) living the movie, Contagion; A dreadful situation.
Even to date, many parts of the world are still locked down. No work, no hangouts with friends, no gym… No gym time?! How frustrating!
Even now that some of us can still move about more freely than before, many would still prefer to sit at home for the fear of contracting the virus. But, when you have all the needed gadgets to get you by, you can worry less. And this is where the smart rope comes in.
Now, with technology like the smart rope, you don’t have to worry about going out and contracting the virus. You can now easily do your workouts in your home by jumping the smart rope.
An Ordinary Skipping Rope Cannot Count Number & Time of Your Jumps
With regular skipping ropes, you could jump a few times and just abandon your exercise without ever hitting your set mark.
Over time, this makes it more difficult for you to plan out your time reasonably or even keep your body in shape like you’d like to.
With smart ropes, however, this problem is eliminated.
Embedded in the smart rope are amazing features that tell you your jump counts. They also provide you with some other valuable information you’d need to run an effective workout plan.
Ordinary Rope Skipping Cannot Count The Number of Calories You Consume and Burn
What’s even more interesting about the smart rope is that it tells you the number of calories you consume and burn regularly.
You get to better discipline yourself. As such, you can deliberately plan your diet and eat healthy as you should.
You also get to know the number of calories you burn as you exercise. A sort of motivation for you to do more exercises (even when you’re indoors), and hit your fitness mark much faster than normal.
Ordinary Rope Skipping Cannot Save Your Exercise Data
Wouldn’t you love the opportunity to skip rope and store your exercise data at the same time? You have that with smart ropes!
This feature allows you to intelligently plan your workout routines. It also allows you to adjust your exercise plans based on the data you’re able to gather after a series of regular exercises.
What Is A Smart Rope?
“Now, what is a smart rope?” you might be wondering… A smart rope is a kind of jump rope or skipping rope.
So, what makes this skipping rope special? The accompanying smart features that it’s equipped with make your workouts a lot more engaging than you’re used to.
Remember how you almost always forget your counts when you jump rope? Now, you have a technology that doesn’t give you the chance for this. With the smart rope’s embedded LED display, you can easily monitor your jumps and also hit your marks right on time.
The smart rope comes with a chip that counts your jumps, calculates your speed, and displays your performance on the go. It also provides you with all your performance data. And this, somewhat, encourages you to do more and get better at your workouts.
The Features That Make This Device “Lit”
● Accurate Counting
As I mentioned earlier, the jump rope comes with an interesting feature that doesn’t allow you the opportunity to forget your jump counts. This is the Accurate counting mode: one of the 3 counting modes embedded in the function of this device.
You can get your head into the exercise rather than worrying about missing your counts.
● Countdown Mode
You also have a countdown mode to tell you how many laps you have left as you exercise.
This means you can preset the number of jumps you want to have. The smart rope will see to it that you have it done.
● Calorie Counting
Did you know that rope jumping burns as much as a running workout? It is affordable, requires minimal space, and it also does about the same job as running on a treadmill.
This is why you have a feature like the calories counter to help in monitoring your calories level. This feature helps you in counting the number of calories you consume. It also helps you calculate the calories you lose as you make your jumps.
● Wire Rope
The smart rope comes with an easily adjustable wire rope to make your rope skipping just as realistic as you’d want it to be.
● Steel Bearing
For those who prefer heavier exercises, you also have the option of choosing the weighted steel-bearing rope.
● Bluetooth
Smart Ropes are also equipped with Bluetooth so that you can connect your phone and even a smartwatch too.
This gives you a chance to create a plan, set your daily limit, and even track your performance.
● Highlight Screen
You know one of the things that make exercising with a smart rope fun? It is a fact that you can easily monitor your progress as you jump.
According to NIFS Fitness, tracking your exercise in real-time makes it possible for you to see how you’re doing, set achievable goals, hit and even surpass these goals.
This highlight screen on the rope gives you the chance to see how you’re doing, even while you’re flipping the rope.
● Smart App
And of course, there is also a smart app to which you can sync the smart rope and track your progress.
● Super Long Battery Life
The Smart rope device is built to last the time of your workout, whether you are running a long skipping rope routine or not, you can rest assured that the device will not die on you or leave you charging it now and then.
Three Modes
Our smart rope is equipped with 3 counting modes:
- Calorie; this mode allows you to skip jump freely and, automatically, it counts the number of calories you burn as you go.
- Countdown Timer: With this mode, you can set a time you’d like to jump for and run the countdown until the end.
- Counting: This mode is just like the countdown timer. But, instead of the stopwatch, this mode helps you to count the number of jumps you have per session. As much as you like. 30, 50, 100…
How to Use
After unpacking your smart rope and assembling it, here are the simple steps you should follow to get it to start working:
- Power the device by pressing (long hold) on the spin button until it makes a tiny tone;
- When it comes on fully, the next step is to turn on its Bluetooth;

This is a tell-tale sign that both of your devices are connected;
