I put three exercises together to form this upper body workout.
- Weighted pull from plank position
- Rope climb
- Battle ropes
Go through each exercise, then take a 45 – 60 second break in-between.
Check out the video below to see the workout.
Weighted Pull
The weighted pull works your abs, back and biceps. It is important to keep your abs and whole core engaged to maintain a neutral spine and hip position. Your back and biceps will be working during the pull portion of the exercise.
Rope Climb
There are a number of variations for the rope climb, commonly you may see people using their legs to help stabilize and generate momentum to help push their body up the rope. I chose to use just my arms to focus more on back and biceps.
Battle Ropes
Lastly, with the battle ropes I would recommend starting with 20 seconds and working your way up from there. Battle ropes are a great way to develop muscular endurance.
