Tie you up and drag you out


Sara-Clare picked up our ropes today so we can do some super fun training in the park.

Come out and try an Urban Warrior class with Sara-Clare to see how much fun you can have with big heavy ropes. It's time to get outside! I'm thinking a tug of war would be pretty fun too.



I'm excited to discover all the things we can do with them. You'll be seeing me at some of the Urban Warrior sessions myself to get my butt kicked! Thanks to Sara-Clare for adding her innovative training approach to Urbanfitt.

Here are some benefits of thick rope training:

Benefits of Thick Rope Training:

* grip strength – dynamic crush / dynamic pinch (dependent upon thickness of rope); dynamic wrist postures
AKA YOU'LL BE ABLE TO OPEN YOUR OWN JARS LADIES!

* intermuscular coordination – summation of tensions through the coordinated engagement of multiple muscle groups (prime movers, synergists, secondary movers, etc.) simultaneously
YOUR BODY WORKS SMARTER AND IS MORE INTEGRATED IN MOVEMENTS. YOU BURN MORE CALORIES AND HIT MULTIPLE MUSCLE GROUPS. HELLO METABOLISM KICK START.

* mental toughness - rope training is NOT easy, it is not a quick fix, it is a bust ass
PUSHING PASSED OUR PERCEIVED LIMITS EMPOWERS US IN THE REST OF OUR LIVES

* massive core strength – rope training involves many primal movement patterns.
YOU TRAIN YOUR CORE WITHOUT EVEN NOTICING

* high work capacity - because rope training utilizes the entire body, a high level of work capacity and muscular endurance is developed
HIGH EFFICIENCY EXERCISE!

Sara-Clare teaches Monday and Tuesday nights and Saturday at 11 and Sunday at 9:30-10:45. I'm going to learn how to use them too!

Come and try your first sweat on us!
