Ropes Gone Wild!

I began my Memorial day weekend by attending a

"Ropes Gone Wild"

workshop led by Antony Diluglio
of Punch Kettlebell Gym.

What a great compliment to Kettlebells.

Heart Thumping Metabolic Conditioning.


Anthony put us through a 4 station circuit, and each station was 1 minute long.
All together we performed 4 different circuits, and with ropes and KB swings can you say gassed....

Each circuit was different but basically the breakdown was

  • KB exercise
  • Ropes
  • BW squat movement
  • Push-up variation.

I am pictured here on the 2" 50 foot rope.

This was our last station of the last circuit of the day, and I am Smoked!!

I am doing everything wrong, using my arms to get the rope to move,
instead of my body working as a unit and the rope becoming an extension of my
hands. Video never lies.






Everyone had a great time and Anthony is an excellent teacher,
I highly recommend his DVD's and workshops.
