How This Woman Mastered Jump Rope | WIRED
She's incredibly athletic.
Yee
Suppa women
How so?
yeah cuz woman can't master anything
Pro boxers jump rope for fitness. She can do 6 minutes of triples. To do that would smash most of those guys. It's very impressive.
It amazes me how far someone can take jump roping, this is absolutely next level performance.
Do you even go outside? Let alone jump rope?
Next level performance? That’s a Max level performance, better known as a Pro Level performance.
It's jumping rope...
ok mustauch
hi Just Some Guy
Wow, the beaming smile on her face says it all. She _LOVES_ what she does. Amazing. ❣
but the system makes her do it til she passes out and gets wire-whipped :.
Well said!
being superfit does that to you, because there is no way you can be superfit without taking very good care of yourself.(unless you're a chinese kid forced to do it xD)
@@Mario7p doing what you love does it as much as fitness. In fact some fit people kill themselves so it's not all that counts
She was smiling throughout the entire video! 😁😄
Im impressed that the human body can do such an intense exercise as long as she can, i mean 6 minutes of triple unders?! Pushing yourself that high off the ground consistently for that long is insane and combine it with focusing hand movements and keeping the rope going.. wow
Seriously, that is *insane* levels of endurance, that women is a world class athlete
There's something called momentum
She can also jump pretty high, which helps
The body's ability to continuously produce epinephrine lasts for about 6-7 minutes, during which people can accomplish incredible things, but after which, at least if the production has been truly continuous, they hit a wall of adrenal and anaerobic exhaustion where both their muscles and neuroendocrine system just starts shutting down to recharge.
@@Apostate1970 interesting
Not a single second in this video when she is not smiling! Amazing athlete, beautiful passion, generosity, we should all be like Tori Boggs!
She's not smiling when she's jumping ropes though
Yesssss!!!!! Her light inspires me even more than her skill♾💎✨🫶☮️🌈🧘♀️😎
Wired's ability to tell a story through these videos is amazing. I've never cared about the Jump roping world and now after watching this I want a jump rope. Thanks Wired. *I'm a 41 year old man I have no business jumping rope. I'm sending Wired my ER bill.
It’s the people with a passion who make it so amazing.
I mean Tori Boggs is 29. It's never too late.
I'm 51. I picked up a jump rope 2 years ago to rehab my ankle. Now I'm doing cross overs, heel toe, boxer step, run step and more. I'm no Tori Boggs but I'm getting there. It's definitely a fun workout that kills your whole body. But it does take time and patience. I suggest any one starting start with a beaded rope. And jump for maybe 5min a day for may be 3 days a week till your body gets use to it to avoid injuries. Cause it is killer.
@@sinistai.z.3622 That's awesome.
Ha! Good one!
As an Army medic, I've drawn athletes' blood before; their veinous blood can scare you into thinking you hit an artery. I've taken their vitals, they breathe only a few times every minute and their hearts beat like every other second. I can't imagine what her nurses think about her vitals.
Yeah, probably a resting heart rate of 30bpm! lol
Right?! Back before I became quite a bit lazier than I should admit. I was a pretty sought after highschool running back and ice hockey goalie running at least 5 miles 7 days a week and swimming laps for 6 hours a week my resting was right around 50 bpm now though ..... It's about 88
This is the coolest person I've learned about all year. Thanks Wired.
I admire people who love something with this much passion, so much.
I grew up in the same town as her and even though she’s 6 years older than me I remember hearing about her accomplishments even when I was in high school. My junior year she was on Ellen and the whole town was talking about it. She’s amazing!
I hear about peoples accomplishments that are 1-2000 years older than me. What's your point? lol
@@ericbogar9665 I think she just wanted to say, for whatever reason, that she lived close to her. I once worked with a guy who went to high school with Linda Ronstadt. At any opportunity he'd be sure to mention it. Like it was his claim to fame.
@@ericbogar9665 bro I seen you on this comment section talking about how jump roping like her is easy. What’s YOUR point? I think you’re a jealous clown 🤡
@@donmiller2908 actually, my point was that, it’s crazy how in a small town I didn’t know how good she was for 15 plus years. I didn’t even know she existed until I was 16. I don’t personally know her so I’m not trying to say that I knew someone famous or anything. If I wanted to do that I would say “I graduated with miss WV USA 2021” but I didn’t :)
@@LucilaRodriguez They landed on the moon on my birthday
She's so proud of what she accomplished and she should be . She's the female Tony hawk of jump rope and just glad people are seeing her sport she's dedicated so much to
You can tell she's all positive vibes as a human being & the whole jump rope side to it just helps her express it
Her whole attitude is so attractive. The fact she is always smiling and just super happy seeming is something we should all desire in life.
You are supposed in nigeria to kill and eat white people, why are you lying here ? kzhead.info/sun/ZpWYpd6CbWl7jJE/bejne.html
I literally just pulled out the skipping rope last night for the first time in over 10 years to get some exercise in while it was non stop raining. The coincidence is crazy & my calves are on FIRE
Skynet is watching
Yeah lol coincidence or your phone is listening/watching! Is say the latter
@@damonbutler9026 nope just a coincidence lol that comment was written right after this video was released
i tried it with slippers and my calves and my skin and toes are on fire as well
They are watching and listening
I got mad respect for that girl! She’s literally on fire with those professional and stunning skills.
Let's hope she isn't.
actually she is not literally on fire
"Literally on fire" lol
Well that's how she burnt her ankle
Wow No doubt she is Better than me😂😂😂😂
Imagine hitting a record and still knowing you could do better so you train for an additional 2 years and beat your own record. Impressive!
She is ALWAYS smiling! Awesome!
My dog also smiles
@@houseplant1016 because he knows that is way smarter than you
She is absolutely amazing, not only her skills, but her attitude, and specially her smile; It's the real flow state of mastery and enjoyment. It's always so satisfying to listen and to see an expert doing what she loves making it look so easy, effortless and fun, Taking into account that I could never do it. Keep doing what you love, your discipline is inspiring.
I love that she openly admits that she has no natural talent for jump rope, that she had to practice to get where she is now. Mastery is achieved through practice, not birth.
Not always
I'm afraid that isn't always the case. I was never going to have the natural talent of Maradona
I agree, Practice/Repetition is how you get good at something. Perseverance is much more important than natural talent. Nobody got to the top of their game without putting in thousands of hours... Plenty have gotten there without any innate talent.
Wonder why whites are always the best then.
I’ll never have Michael Jordan’s skill no matter how much I practice
I did a training camp with Tori some years ago. It’s always so good to see her doing well. ❤️
She is amazing! I finally mastered double unders and crisscrosses after months of practice which makes me really appreciate the coordination and athleticism she has to do what she does
She's technically an athlete. They should have an Olympic event for this
Oh yeah lol Your tripping man
Sure sounds silly but try the triple unders like she was and come back to tell us you did it no problem.
100% agree. The jump rope events and routines would be much more exciting to watch than curling and weight lifting,
Jumprope clubs and the word tournament have been pushing for Olympics for jumprope athletes. It’s endurance, gymnastics, so any aspects
@@melodied4314…said the person with no appreciation of the intricacies of either weightlifting or curling. Both are incredibly technical, and curling is incredibly strategic. I assume that you do not appreciate billiards either
Her vertical leap ability is amazing. She seems to float in the air.
I used to do jump rope and love how this actually shows jump rope as how it really is: really hard and extremely athletic!
It can be really hard and athletic but can also be simple and a great aerobic conditioner. I was doing tricks decades ago but now I just do a simple workout. Speed skipping, crossovers, and double jumps.
@@lym3204 bro how old are you you said decades ago and you still do skipping thats crazy
Speechless... Amazing coordination. It's a sport and an art form.
well...im in love with Tori Boggs. she has such an 80s/90s vibe mixed with today's era.
Absolutely agree. She reminds me of teen characters I used to watch in the 90s.
5.6 jumps per second?!!! Wtf!!! Amazing!!!
I love it when people love something weird like this that they dedicate their lives to it. She seems like a very cool girl.
Way to go Tori! Love to see jump rope finally hit this series! Can't wait for a chance to meet you again!
Her enthusiasm and passion for what she does is very inspiring. A blessing for sure
Being able to do back flips, front flips, splits and hand stands is already amazing, even without jump rope.
Possibly the greatest KZhead video ever posted. Thank you for putting it up. Congratulations Tori on turning a 'pastime' into an expression, a society strengthener and a wonder to behold.
bro its not that good
A high quality video,thanks. Tori Boggs has really raised the standards of jumping rope, physically and mentally, connecting humans together through this sport
its always so inspiring to see someone who has mastered something so well its almost magic
This is my FAVORITE thumbnail on KZhead PERIOD! Reminds me of one of Mcfarlanes classic Amazing Spider-Man covers. I always thought that posture was exaggerated but it’s so dope to see a real life human hit that pose 🤯
Love,dedication,determination: these are the keys for coping on jump roping,this young lady deserves the best ,recognition,fame for being so humble and a pleasant smiling young lady!
one part is her discipline and second part is her personality .. both are top notch... what an inspiration :)
the world needs more Tori Boggs!
She's so effing fit to do what she does. It's incredible. She's got perfect legs too. I get tired just normal skipping for a minute with no flips or anything fancy added.
She's pure determination! Very impressive.
Tori is unbelievable, amazing, and a role model for us all.
I love her smile and personality.. She deserves more wins!
Truly amazing. Never knew anything like this existed.
Accomplished and fun to admire.
First time I ever saw her was on another Video, and I just couldn‘t get over how much this girl loves to jump rope. She is constantly beaming with a huge smile when doing it, or even talking about it.
Enjoyed this immensely
I can relate to this. What's more exciting than working out while having fun at the same time.
tori was one of my first jump rope mentors. she has inspired so many people in our sport. tori, you are incredible and we love you so much!!
She must be the sweetest human in the world with that amount of core strength ❤️ absolutely loved her
This is cool! Amazing what can be done with just a piece of rope.
I remember seeing Tori on a documentary called Jump! … great to see her still killing it!
Amazing.Nice to see someone with so much passion.
SHE FOUND HER PASSION IS THE MOST EXCITING THING FOR ME TO SEE AS SHE WAS TELLING THE SMILE ON HER FACE TELL ME HOW MUCH SHE IS PASSIONATE FOR THIS. GOOD GOING TORI KEEP IT UP
No one: The athlete kid after saying that she was bad jumping rope.
That was Literally Awesome ! I use to jump rope for fitness, a regular rope, found a heavy 1 inch rope around, then got a steel rope, rode a mountain bike, in the hills for an hour or so, made a pull up bar, I had a few free weights, l was never in better shape, I Loved that jumping rope, it was simple, fun to Miss Tory has inspired me to start again, I Thouroghly enjoyed watching the Level of Excellence of that Young Woman
Such a unique combination of talent, positivity, perseverance, beauty and kindness. Truly amazing.
Lover her attitude and vibe, then knowing she can absolutely crush it like this, is simply awesome!! Max Respect!!
Unsurprisingly, her legs look amazing
Yes why not ?
I thought the same thing. her leg muscles are incredible.
What a lovely person with an amazing skill!
She does. It’s her hair style, clothing, and personality.
Passion, dedication and skills... amazing athlete.
She's adorable. She gleams honest positivity and she's such a great hard working athlete and person. ❤
I love that she always has a huge smile on her face while jump roping
I think her dedication is awesome and she is 👍.
She seems so happy and full of joy. Awesome.
Tori is the epitome of a champion, and she still has a great personality and a beautiful smile. What a fantastic person!
I was proud when I could have the rope go twice underneath my feet lol
Me too.
I was a tall kid, so I never got to jump robe much, because the ropes were always too small. I could still do it, but it was uncomfortable having to make myself smaller.
Same. I understand completely.
Imagine discovering your passion at 5 years old and then sticking with it (with the support of a loving family!) What a special thing
So much skill, joy and generosity! Made my day! 😍
She's like Lindsey Stirling with Violin. Effortless and Floating 🔥
My ankles and knees are crying just watching this.
You are absolutely amazing ❤
omfg my mind is blown away ....respect! i cant remember when was liste time saw such positively loaded clip thx
Amazing Tori!!!!!!!!!! Advancing the sport for the world to see! Such a huge fan of your ability to do get so much publicity for the sport and of course your skills as well! :)
Thank you! Seriously appreciate that!
Es un placer comentarle a esta atleta tan capaz. Además de ser una dulzura de persona, tuve el honor de tratarla personalmente y darme cuenta de su competividad, combinada con un enfoque humanista.
I love your vibe and energy! When you jump rope it's looks unreal.
very inspiring journey!! I love how much she loves it.
🤯 love her passion. Wowie wow wow wow
And here I am 40# overweight and get winded walking up stairs. MY GOD - can you imagine her level of fitness / cardiovascular ?
Buy a jump rope m8.
It's really cool how such a simple concept can bring so much creativity and endurance.
The expression of sheer joy on her face is everything!
Tori does one of most beautiful TJ i have ever seen! Just beautiful to look at, form and everything!🔥❤️
That 6 min triple under is just unthinkable for me! I hardly do two double unders
What's silly is thinking that something so small couldn't make you the badass you are. You are amazing to watch, and as someone who also enjoys jumping rope. My motivation has been rekindled.
Magnificent and entertaining. Bravo!
Very impressive... Great 👍
Her stamina must be through the roof. If we ever get a zombie apocalypse, noone could touch her.
Incredible athleticism! Her physical fitness is definitely top notch and her skill is unbelievable!
I'm so inspired! Thank you! I have always loved jump rope and double dutch, but have kind of left it alone as an adult, makes me want to revisit. 😄
I wish I could get excited about anything the way she does about jump rope.
I'm pretty sure that at some point the jump rope broke the sound barrier
Lamao
If I'm not mistaken, the whooshing sound is sonic boom
@@pranavps851 you're thinking of a whip crack
She is so genuine wish her all the good 👍
What a cool lady! So happy and dedicated to perfecting something so simple. 🤙
*Ma'am, you are amazing.*
An absolute legend
Tori Boggs is incredible...What a super athlete. She is such a happy, upbeat person. Her inner light just keeps shining through.. Good Luck to her in her future endeavors. CHEERS TO A N OUSTSANDING, FANTASTIC ATHLETE AND PERSON.
blown away more than expected by this. Especially the triple unders.. doing that for that long is honestly insane, I'm tired after 10 reps.
She makes me want to jump. And smile. Role model human.
Amazing! My personal best is 40 double unders. Still trying to land a triple under.
my personal best is 5 singles
WOW! JUST WOW! All this with a smile on your face! Incredible!
Literally blew my mind!!!
