Battling Ropes are a form of High Intensity Training (HIT) and therefore are a great time saver to use as an alternative to traditional cardio, or even just to throw in at the end of your weights workout for a real heart raiser. Pick a battling rope variation (or mix it up) and start with just 5 sets of 20 second intervals, with 40 seconds of rest. So 5 minutes of all out effort. If that's too easy then either increase the amount of sets, increase the work intervals, or decrease the rest intervals, e.g., - WEEK 1: 5 sets x 20's work/40's rest
- WEEK 2: 5 sets x 30's work/30's rest
- WEEK 3: 5 sets x 40's work/20's rest
