(#68) Pakhung - The Life Of A Competitive Jump Roper

October 08, 2021 • Nathaniel Kroll-Goldschlag • Episode 68

"There was always a thought that I wanted to retire, [but] there is always a reason that pulls me back into jump rope." - Pakhung

Pakhung is a world champion jumper, the founder of Ultra Jump Rope, and an all-around great guy. If you haven't seen Pak jump, you need to go check out his jumping on Instagram. We originally connected over Instagram and had an immediate in-depth conversation about all things competitive jump rope, so we've brought a lot of that to today's show. We talk about competitive speed step training, changing jump rope goals during Covid-times, Pak's program he's building for recreational jumpers, the intense demands of being a competitive jumper, and a whole lot more.
