Rope Exercise

Battle rope training benefits

Low impact training

Minimal stress is placed on the joints when using battle ropes, with all the force applied to the muscular system.

Unilateral dominance / imbalance

When you train with battle ropes, you may realize that one side of your body may move differently than the other. It may generate a smaller wave, be more uncoordinated, etc. One of the benefits of battle rope training is that over time, these differences will go away as your body starts to balance itself out.

It’s functional fitness

Battle rope training involves the entire body, training the neuromuscular system to apply force that begins at the core and extends through the extremities (both arms and legs). You’ll also develop a killer grip and increase your power output through exercises like power slams. Furthermore, the high intensity, rapid nature of battle rope training means that you will develop an insane amount of muscular and cardiovascular endurance—not to mention burning a ton of fat in the process.
