Blast The FatJust 10 minutes of swinging the heavy workout tool burn 112 calories. Thanks to the high heart rate and energy expenditure, cardiorespiratory fitness rockets – even more so when ropes are used in high-intensity interval training (HIIT). It’s this metabolism-boosting magic that makes it a big hit with fitness trainers, footballers, and other athletes. | Sculpt Your MusclesBattle ropes target muscles that are often left out of standard training routines (and are therefore weaker). In a series of waves, whips and slams, battle ropes can be manipulated up and down, side-to-side, or even in circles to train a host of different muscles. Changing the grip can affect which muscles are targeted: underhand blasts your biceps, while overhand is brilliant for circular or lateral movements. | Increase MobilityOne of the functional benefits of heavy ropes is that they boost your range of motion. Regular rope practice will gradually improve the mobility in your grip, as well as the movement in your shoulders, hips, core, knees, ankles and feet. By boosting mobility, your training becomes more efficient and day-to-day actions will be easier to perform. |
