This gets your hips, legs and glutes fired up and burning. Not to be overlooked is the cardio strength benefit of the whole body exercises you can do – especially with the additional freedom of movement patterns of the Hyper Rope. Exercise science has documented the unrivaled cardio benefits of battle rope and jump rope training.
