Finding Your Fitness with Bobby Williams (#30)

“Jump rope has taught me that if you want to do anything in life, an important factor is to make sure you enjoy it.” — Bobby Williams

Bobby Williams and I have known each other for over year, and had the opportunity to meet and jump when he visited Southern California in June of 2019. Even though we’ve known each for a while, this was the first time we really sat down and discussed Bobby’s story with jump rope. We get into a lot of different topics, including getting stronger over time, how Bobby structures his workouts, how to find the style of fitness that matches you, and a whole lot more.

You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher and Overcast.

📝 A note on jump rope terminology…

Using the term “Leg Over” is more preferable to “Krouger,” “Cougar,” “Crooger,” or any other variation of this name.

Kroogar is a bit more popular, but it’s a very non-specific name.

Granted, you can do whatever you want, this is the internet after all haha. But if you’re looking to understand jump rope more clearly, adopting the “Leg Over” terminology is a bit more descriptive and can help when testing out related skills and combos (like the Leg Over Swing, Leg Over Release, EB Leg Over Swing, etc.)
