Rope Pulling Exercises for Undulation

Video Transcript

"RASUL AHMED DAVIS: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Rasul Davis and my company is Punch Kettlebell Gym, New York City and I'm going to be showing you how to use ropes for undulation. Okay, a very important exercise for people--and if you noticed, everything I've talked about is functional movement, functional, meaning things that you actually would do, not like laying on the bench, lifting a heavy weight that nobody would ever do, unless you're a power lifter, or something like that, and that's your sport, okay? For the rest of us, I'm going to show you about how to train yourself for climbing ropes. This is part one. Grab the rope, I put it over the pull-up bar and what I'm going to do is to just pull the full length of the rope as fast as I can. So I just keep pulling and what this is doing, this is actually training me to get ready to do ropes. And as you see, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to do this because the rope gets tangled up a little bit. But now, I can keep pulling and that's going to work for me, okay? That's part one."
