Benefits of a battle rope workout

As the name suggests, the battle rope workout is done with the help of a battle rope. Although battle rope workout is not a new trend, it has gained popularity recently when lots of stars like Kareena Kapoor, Amrita Arora and Kishwer Merchant shared their battle rope workout videos.

Battle ropes give you the benefits of a full body workout. They offer full body strength while raising your heart rate so that you can enjoy the benefits of cardio as well. They are great if you are targeting your core area as you utilise the strength of your core to move the heavy ropes. As you move these ropes up and down, you get to tone your arms, upper back and chest area too. It is perfect for those who have been struggling with upper body fat.

What do you need and how it works?

The best thing about battle rope workouts is that you don't need to make any huge investments. All you need are nylon ropes which are easily available at any fitness or hardware store. A longer rope will give you better benefits but if you have limited space, a smaller one will work too. You can get these ropes fixed on the wall or you can just use a pole to hold your rope.

With a single rope, you can do a lot of variations. Make sure that you do all the variations in squat position. Some of them are:

• Wave: This is the most basic battle rope exercise. All you have to do is to make waves with these ropes using both of your hands. You can even create alternate waves. This is perfect when you are targetting biceps along with the core.
• Slam: Lift both the ends of the rope over your head and slam them on the ground with full force. This will build your back muscles too.
• Circles: Create individual circles using your hands to tone your core and shoulders. You can start with smaller circles and make bigger ones with practice. Create both inward and outward circles.
• Slam Jump: In this one, you will be working on your glutes, calves, back and core. Instead of a normal slam, jump along with the rope. This is a very intense version.
• Rope Jacks: If you really want to feel the power of these battle ropes, hold one end of the rope in each hand and do some jumping jacks. This is a total body workout.
