Preparing for The Rope Climb
You need to do many things before attempting the rope climb without embarrassing yourself. If you go too fast, there are chances you could suffer from nasty friction burns and embarrassment in the gym, when you fall down while attempting the climb.
You need to work out for a while before you can attempt the rope climb. For this, you need to build up strength in your arms, abs, shoulders and your back. You need to develop a vice like grip, while improving your agility and co-ordination.
People who climb rope regularly have a better muscle tone than non-rope climbers who have probably been hitting the gym for years. This exercise isn’t only reserved for really fit people. However, rope climbing does demand that you be in good enough physical shape to complete it.
Some exercises that can help you develop the requisite strength needed to climb rope include:
