the coach is this  new breed of fitness elitist who thinks he is "cutting edge" just because he doesn't have treadmills and makes his clients do hill intervals while wearing a weighted vest

seriously, get off your high horse...you are training your clients with the same techniques my uncles and grandfather used back in Europe 50 years ago

then again, coach won't acknowledge me cuz i dare to admit that i'm a "trophy trainer" while he is a "legit trainer"....

Same with me Scottish ancestors...

There's nothing "cutting edge" JNN, it basically going back to the basics (exept for maybe the ropes) of training before age of machines. One of the exercises I just added to my strongman camps was a wheelbarrow, we add anywhere between 150-250lbs of 45lb plates and have to zig zag between cones for about 60 yards.

ain't nothing wrong with that

everything "old" is "new" again

trust me- much like the kettlebells are the newest thing (when my grandfather was using them in the 30's) the next big fad in fitness will be the Persian clubs in, say, 5 years if not sooner

Waste of money

Hey Goodrum the liar.  Where is your gym.  The size of the one you talked lied about was to small for these ropes.  Have you eaten at Vignes

..and thats exactly it. Alot of people on here made fun of the way I was going to set up my gym without realizing you DO NOT need fancy equipment or some fru fru gym with no training system to get in shape. The ropes? Why in the f**k would I want to pay $5k for a bike or treadmill when I can get BETTER results from thick ropes and a prowler or pushing a truck? Bottom line is, the people who call "bullshit" on this type of training are no less than lazy and are afraid to work.


Still don't get it do you....





Joe, notice their arm movements....similar to the other video posted. 

Congratulations on buying an overpriced Double Dutch Rope..... ::)

Overall conditioning (similar to intervals) joint strength, core, grip. The rope is 2" thick and 50ft long.
So why  gymnasts don`t use it  ???

Don't get me wrong JC, I still believe in barbells and dumbells as well, this is just an added tool for some metabolic work at the end of our training sessions. Our strongman stuff is done once per week and some might be added in during the week for some dynamic effort training.

Dunno, I don't train gymnasts, but I would have to assume that since most started as young children they don't need any extra resistance by the time they're in their teens.

Regardless of methods that people deem as exercise, unless done results don't happen. Oldschool working out with dumbells and barbells is what many here prefer, but if they aren't excelling or getting better, then the work ethic sucks. It's about the person not the method.

Some good ideas for coach to go with being thrown around.  Maybe gymnastics will be the new fad soon. Coach can come up with some type of scam to lure them in too. Hell while your at it coach you should start training water polo players and cyclists just make up some more lies as to why you are qualified to train them. After all its about getting as much money as possible no matter what half truths or lies you tell.

why would you need to, training doesn't have to be complex and difficult to figure out, it is rather simple, just like a diet, you don't need a rocket scientist to tell you what to do.



you dont get muscle endurance in your shoulders/arms etc from riding a fucking BIKE. this isn't bodybuilding dumbass.

Shitload different in having good cardio and muscle endurance.
