This type of workout can be part of your existing training routine, or, it can prepare you for heavy weight lifting, a boxing or wrestling battle, or other intense full body challenges.

Among the numerous flooring solutions available at Greatmats, there are several that work perfectly for a rope workout. The two most popular are:
