Battle ropes will give you good cardio, and a complete body workout

The one equipment in gymnasiums that is sometimes overlooked by the average gym-goer, is the battle rope.

While most believe mass can only be built by carrying iron, and a whole lot of it, battle ropes can help you achieve your goals, too.

In fact, you get almost a total body workout. If done right, your arms, chest, abdomen, back and thighs will feel the strain each time you flick the ropes.

The motion of the battle ropes as they cut through the air is sheer poetry. Almost like rolling art, in the way the ropes create “waves”, but for the person creating that wave, it’s a killer cardio workout.

One thing is for certain, you will sweat – a lot.

Battle ropes come in various weights and thickness.

Kuckreja & Co’s Trident Master Battle Rope comes in two sizes – 38mm x 15m (11kg) and 50mm x 15m (16kg).

The Trident Battle Rope 50mm.

Why should you invest in a battle rope?

  • It’s a great way to pump your heart.
  • It’ll help you get that perfect beach bod.
  • The likelihood of getting injured is low.

If you are staring at a battle rope for the first time, and have no clue as to what to do, don’t sweat it.
