I was looking at today's crossfit workout. Regarding double-unders man these look tough..I jump rope ocassionally but not double-unders ..whats a good way to attempt to build up to say just 25 reps? Any tips on transitioning to these from regular style jumping rope. Should I attempt to increase my endurance w/ just regular jump ropes before trying these.

I can usually jumprope for only a minute to 2 minutes at most w/o fatiguing.

I don't have good consecutive doubles. (I go double-single-double). But I think you should work your singles more if you are doing 1-2 minutes. You could make it part of your warm-up and do a couple minutes. Cutting out an intermediate hop and going off both feet were part of my progress, so maybe that will help you a bit.
