Simple, Intuitive, with decent heft...great for the academic.
For myself, the work I'm used to doing is very physical and demanding. However, having gone back to school I've had to quit my job for a season in order to keep up with my studies. As such, it's easy to get bogged down and neglect one's physical well-being. After awhile in school, I began to feel sluggish again and part of that was because of the long stretches of inactivity I allowed myself to get into. I largely got a my workout manipulating weights of up to 300 lbs or so through work, so I never really paid much attention to to a workout regimen. It's only fair to state that I'm just an average joe who is looking to stay fit and active, not a person that is focused on creating a powerful physique. And in my research, I found that jump roping is a great medium for a good general workout.I started with an unweighted speed rope but wanted something with a little more resistance...and thus the Pulse fit the bill. The handles are a very good size. The diameter is about 1.25" and the length is 5.75". There is one 0.5 lb weights in each handle for a total of 1 lb. The handles are also foam covered. Something I noticed was that the build of the jump rope is quite sturdy. Even the plastic of the handles were durable. Even dropped it once on tile and no cracks or breaks. Making adjustments is a cinch but keep in mind that you will be cutting the 10ft rubber rope. Thus, all your adjustments will be permanent. If you over cut, you'll need to replace the rope. This rope doesn't taggle in my experience. When it came out of the box, the coiling did imprint itself so at first the rope would have bends and curvatures that depicted that, but I found that hanging it overnight basically removes "the wrinkles" and straightens the rope out (thanks to the weights pulling down on it) and thus removes possible tangles.This is a good and simple rope. It lacks the customization of a crossrope where you can change the ropes to all these different kinds, but I'm a simple guy with simple goals. At a fraction of the cost a crossrope demands, this provides a good weighty workout while still feeling confident in the equipment. Just make sure to adjust the rope to your proper size.

A lot of care and thought went in to creating this product to prevent any compromise in function
I needed a new set of jump ropes because the 2lb weighted P90x jump ropes were getting tangled a lot. Ofcourse I wasn't able to get a proper feedback from them, which attests to Pulse Athletics' quality of customer care and satisfaction. Funny enough, it was thanks to their concise instructions in the package as well as their prompt answering of questions that allowed me to find the most accurate length for my height and also rectify the whole tangling issue. Now I have both this and the p90x cable, so I can use them if I want to focus on speed and learning new tricks or focus on increasing muscular endurance of my arm, respectively.Having said that, the quality and functionality of this product is definitely superior!!I love the clever idea of using a plastic stopper on the end of the rope instead of p90x' approach of using metal horseshoe shaped hook that one has to clamp on to the rope with a plier. The plastic stopper makes it extremely easy to adjust the length of the rope and causes a lot less damage to the rope compared to the metal hook.The handles also indicate that they put careful thought in designing this product. They are not bulky and have these red grooves that make a comfortable resting place for your fingers, ensuring there is proper grip without having to clutch it tightly.The metal bar inside the handles have 2 plastic casings. These can be removed if you want but having used the p90x ropes, which does have that design, I'd definitely recommend against removing them. They allow for seamless revolutions inside the handle as you are rotating your wrists so the weight in the handles are distributed evenly, which probably contributes to the cable loop being as symmetrical as possible as well.Definitely worth the price!

Company Stands behind their product
Product seemed ok until I dropped a handle and the cheap plastic broke and the weight came shooting out the end. No more "weighted" rope for me, frustrating but I guess it's my own fault for using the product and dropping the handle.Beyond my obvious issue, the rope came as designed and in a timely manner. Took a few times to get the wrinkles in the rope out as it comes tied up in a small box. The bearings in the rope worked well and it jumped great for the half day I got to use it.Hopefully with some duct tape I'll be able to to make my new rope work.Review Update:After my initial review, the company reached out to me and offered to not only refund my money but send me a new rope. I understand that manufacturing defects do happen but it is great to see a company that values its customers and that also stands behind its product.
