Not even in most sports, the Stroops Battle Rope is the only performance training tool that provides strength training that incorporates every major muscle group throughout each exercise. Unlike traditional ropes, which only allow a single plane of force, Stroops Battle Rope incorporates Slastix technology, with heavy resistance that elicits muscle contractions throughout the entire body up to three training planes simultaneously. Beyond functioning as a high-powered battle rope, Stroops’ Battle Rope is also a versatile tool with numerous applications—from developing explosive sprints and rotational movements (which target the core muscles) to lateral movement training (which targets core stability), to reverse walking (for lower body strength), to building cardiovascular endurance. And because Stroops bands are lightweight and encased in a protective nylon sheath, athletes gain not just an effective, fast, physically taxing workout, but a safe workout as well, avoiding the dangers of heavy ropes or unprotected elastic bands. With resistances varying from 50 to 150 pounds, Stroops Battle Ropes can be used to train athletes at all fitness levels.  Includes One Slastix Battle Rope.  Suggested Accessories not included are (Power Pull Belt, Shoulder H Harness, & Heavy Rope.
