Jumps

Garmin Connect IQ datafiled for counting jumps during Jump Rope activities

Download at: Garmin Connect IQ

Setup

THIS IS A DATAFIELD, IT DOES NOT APPEAR UNDER APPS.

Copy Cardio activity and rename it to "Jump Rope" (or whatever you´d like)
Add Jumps to your Data Screen (please refer to your watch manual: https://support.garmin.com/support/manuals/searchManuals.faces?refresh=true)
Start the activity and calibrate the multiplier (jump 100 times and see what´s displayed, then use the formula: multiplier=100/"jumps displayed"
Adjust multiplier if necessary
Start jumping!

Features

Choose between 4 types of data to display: jumps, jumps per minute, seconds per jump, and jumping effect.
Connect IQ graphs for total jumps, jumps per minute, and seconds per jump
Connect IQ values for steps (total and lap) and jumping effect.
Set your goal: choose between jumps or calories. (watch vibrates 5s after goal is reached)

Jumping Effect: indicates how hard you trained.

A value of 100 is equivalent to jumping 20 minutes non-stop at a 120+ jpm pace.

You don´t need to be fast to lose weight, all of these are equivalent in term of calories burned:

20 minutes at 120jpm (MET=12.3)
21 minutes at 100 jpm (MET=11.8)
28 minutes at 80 jpm (MET=8.8)

This index makes it easier to compare how hard your training was with your friends.

This is based on the MET (Metabolic Equivalent) for rope jumping as a function of the pace. source

Acknowledgment

This datafield is based on the open source PoleSteps to FIT steps datafield with a multiplier. #####A big Thank you to rgergely for making his code available! PoleSteps can be downloaded here: PoleSteps to FIT. The original datafield without the multiplier can be downloaded from this location: Steps to FIT
