GREAT CARDIO at home! So easy to do! Cheap to buy!

I just setup these 'HEAVY ROPES' that I bought on Amazon.

I'm sure you all know how popular these have become at gyms.

I don't go to a gym.

And I have a bad left hip which limits the type of cardio I can do.

So I finally bought these "heavy ropes" and today was my first exercise with them.

WOWWWWWWW! I did just '3' ... one minute ... sets and ... PUFF! PUFF!

GREAT cardio!

Well done, you. How are they anchored? Which length did you go with?

thanks Dabaa ... i did some Google research on your question before I bought them ...

There are three sizes ... 1 inch thick ... 1 1/2 inch thick ... 2 inch thick ...

and the lengths are 30, 40 and 50 feet ...

The 1 1/2 inch thick were recommended for my normal man's hand size .... and (ahem) athletic ability ...

I chose to go with 'extra' length at 40 feet knowing i could wrap the extra length around a strong floor shelf and adjust as needed.

Both choices worked out perfect!

Plus, as you know, we get our 30 days return from Amazon, if needed.

It won't be needed!

Now I just have to GET TO WORK on my new HEAVY ROPES!

PUFF! PUFF! PUFF!

Hi PD. Thanks for troubling to reply. I might pull the trigger. Could loop them round my 25 ft balcony. Presumably they're relatively weather-proof...there again, maybe I should just content myself with my Resistance Bands - they are a good substitute for weights (if interested check out YT James Grage and/or Undersun Fitness (no affiliation)). Have a good one PD.

My suggestion is that you post a video of your workout, it would help you to track your progress and help motivate others as well.

Very cool. Did you mean to title this "Great CARIO"? You can edit it (at least you can from the web browser access).
