How Ervin Concepcion Sharpened His Mindset With Sports & Jump Rope (#62)

“It’s ok to make mistakes, and it’s also ok to share those failures!” – Ervin Concepcion

Ervin Concepcion started jumping during the beginning of lockdown in 2020, and since then has learned a tremendous amount of skills and even started selling jump ropes to his community in the Philippines. Also this guy has dislocated his shoulder more times than anyone I know and he has a really hilarious way of explaining these injuries, which we get into during the podcast. We also talk about how competitive sports help teach optimism, how to approach selling jump ropes, Ervin’s process learning to jump rope, Ervin’s history playing competitive tennis, and a bunch more.

You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google, 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.)
