Sports Training Testimonies

I feel Buddy Lee's approach to cross conditioning for sports represents all the best of science, innovation, and practicality. He does not focus on rigid programming, equipment, or fitness trends. His focus is on the body (where the focus of all conditioning should start). He emphasizes timing, coordination, agility, body awareness and body control. These elements provide both improved performance and injury prevention. These are also the words we use to describe the great ones'. All great sports coaches have continuously maintained a focus on fundamentals (no matter how great or popular they may have become). I feel Buddy represents the same fundamentals philosophy for conditioning. I consider him a friend, a peer and an expert in his field.

W Gid Alston (Ph.D., Chairman and Professor, Department of Health, Physical Education, Sports Management, and Sports Medicine Erskine College): “I’ve been involved in fitness and conditioning programs most of my life, and I’m absolutely convinced that rope jumping is the best conditioning exercise for any sport. Rope jumping enhances speed, agility, balance, quickness, power, coordination, strength and confidence, as well as endurance. Any sound jump rope program can produce positive results, but Buddy Lee’s Jump Rope Training system is by far the best and most motivational conditioning program I’ve found. Buddy’s book is excellent; his patented jump ropes are without equal; and his multi-level music programs complete an incomparable package. I give this program my highest recommendation.

USA FIGURE SKATING

Kristy Yamaguchi (Olympic Gold Medallist), Betty Okino, and Paul Wylie
Buddy I use your rope as a warm up to my skating every time I get on the ice". 

Sara Hughes (2002 US Olympic Gold Medallist):
Timothy Goebel (2002 US Olympic Bronze Medallist) and I are two main skaters using your rope as part of our warm up.

Christine Krall (National Programs Director):
My sincerest thanks on being such an integral inspiration and incredible resource to our sport. I look forward to having you guide our top juvenile skaters and Olympic hopefuls for the years 2006 and 2010.

Justin Pekarek ('99 World Jr. Ice Dance Champion):
When I combined the Cross Trainer Speed Rope™ with the many skills and double unders jumps you showed me, my agility went through the roof. I have found training with your rope and program interesting, challenging, but most of all fun. Thanks, Buddy!

Audrey Wiesiger ('98 US Olympic Coach, former coach of Michael Weiss - national champion skater and World Bronze Medallist):
I use rope jumping as part of the training and conditioning program for all my young skaters. I am particularly impressed with how rope jumping has increased the 'efficiency of movement' of my athletes.

Felicia Beck (one of the Nation's top Junior Figure Skater):
Thank you so much for the 'Rope to Success'. I am training really hard for this upcoming season and it's going very well. I am landing 5 triples on each session! I am very psyched! Thanks again.

Alex Merritt (5th place at 2003 U.S. Nationals Novice Pairs):
“We met 4 years ago at USFSA Southwestern Regional when I was 12. I bought one of your ropes and you worked with me on jumping the entire week. I am now 17 and still skating everyday. I’m a Junior in Freestyle and Pairs and my skating is going great, in part, thank to the jumping you got me started on more than 4 years ago. I still jump everyday before practice, but my rope finally broke the other day, after hundreds of thousands of revolutions, so I’m ordering a new one.

Your friend Alex Merritt”.
