G’day, Jump Rope Community! In Episode 25, host Dizzy (@dizzyskips) sits down with the OG Aussie skipper himself, Papa Joe (@papa_joe01) 🤩

They explore everything from Joe’s early struggles in a boxing gym (where he was the only one NOT skipping!) to mastering heavy ropes, boxers skips, and—yes—double-unders from Down Under

Along the way, you’ll hear how jump rope became Joe’s daily mental release, stress-buster, and secret weapon for staying fit.

The conversation bounces around the supportive jump rope community, upcoming challenges, and how platforms like podcasts, Instagram, and meetups help keep everyone motivated. 

Expect plenty of Aussie slang (“ripper!”), a dash of coffee talk ☕, and tips to transform your rope routine into a powerful mental-health practice.

They also cover Joe’s go-to strategies:

  • Consistency (just keep skipping!)
  • Embracing the basics (master that boxer skip!)
  • The Power of warming up and cooling down (so you don’t hobble away in pain!)


Hear Papa Joe shout out legends like @doc.jumps, @kathyjumps, @aaronjumps.365, @richardheadjumps, and the @jumpropedudes. Plus, learn why short daily efforts can lead to massive wins—at home, in the office, or even in a warehouse at 6:30 AM!

Ready for a playful, motivational pep talk? Hit that play button, crank up the volume, and get skipping. 

This episode will leave you pumped, smiling, and itching to take on the next rope challenge—Aussie style! 🦘
