The Battling Ropes Challenge is a dynamic training DVD that shows you a wide variety of exercises in the Battling Rope Level 1 training. Even though John Brookfield, the creator of the Battling Ropes, calls this training tape level 1, he takes you through the basic exercises.  He then takes you onto the intermediate exercises, and then the advanced exercises. This training tape will ground you and give you more than enough knowlege to prepare you to climb the ladder and into other levels of the system. John takes you into exercises in the kneeling and seated positions, as well as demonstrates exercises that actually will double the intensity of your training. The Battling Ropes Challenge will train you how to sustain higher intensity for longer durations of time. This sustained intensity is the result of the fact that the system demands that you use constant velocity instead of momentum.  Approx. running time is 55 minutes.
