| Description:
|
It's a rope on a continuous loop. You can adjust the angle and the amount of resistance. And the seat "floats" to give you the sensation of climbing a real rope.
|
| How It Works:
|
You adjust the amount of resistance so that it simulates leg-free rope-climbing, even if you haven't yet built up your strength enough to lift your entire body weight. As you get stronger, you dial-up more resistance.
|
| Ideal For:
|
Anyone, but, especially, pole vaulters, gymnasts, and contestants on American Ninja Warrior!
|
| Why It's Cool:
|
We think this is the coolest exercise machine ever invented. Marpo's Rope Trainers simulate rope climbing perfectly. But, they are much safer than climbing a real rope. Think about it: your muscles are the most fatigued when you're at the highest point on a rope! Anyone who can climb a rope without using their feet or legs demonstrates impressive strength. Could Arnold do that?
