A weighted speed rope is essentially a jump rope with weighted handles to provide more momentum during the swing for quicker rotations. A weighted speed rope and jump rope both offer the same basic benefits, however, the weighted speed rope emphasizes speed and quickness and is better for developing coordination and conditioning by increasing the speed of the rope.
