Battle Rope Slams

How to do it

1. Anchor a heavy battle rope at its center and stand facing the anchor with an end of the rope in each hand, feet shoulder-width apart and knees soft.
2. Hinge slightly at the hips and raise both arms overhead together, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
3. Drive both arms down explosively, slamming both ends of the rope into the ground at the same time.
4. Absorb the rebound and immediately reverse the motion, whipping the rope back overhead for the next rep.
5. Brace your core and keep your knees soft throughout, using your hips and legs to help drive the power rather than your arms alone.
6. Continue at a steady, explosive pace for the prescribed time.
