Manila Climbing Ropes and Cargo Nets for Bodyweight Training

You’re up next and it’s your first 20 foot manila rope climb. Although you’re no ace at rope climbing, you’ve graduated from the “gym class technique” to a more efficient Marine-style brake and squat climbing method. You’re warmed up for this segment of your strength and conditioning workout, but nervousness sets in as you stare at the manila climbing rope in front of you. You’re physically ready for the challenge but realize you’re questioning if the rope will hold-up. Sound familiar?!

Why Add Rope Climbing to Your Workout of the Day (WOD)?

Like a pull-up, rope climbing requires users to move the entire body during the climb. The muscles in your hands and forearms apply gripping force, your core becomes engaged to help control your body position, and your legs can be incorporated as you pinch or secure the rope between your feet and push during the climb. Climbing rope can be a challenging form of bodyweight training for grip, upper-body pulling strength, muscular endurance and coordinated use of the body.

Rope climb workouts are popular with cross training facilities and high school gym classes and can be used as a test or challenge for upper body strength and muscular endurance. Climbing rope can be a very competitive and fun way to train. For military training, rope climbing and obstacle-course work can also have a functional purpose as part of broader physical preparation.

What Options Are There for a Custom-Made Climbing Rope?

Jammar climbing ropes for indoor and outdoor use are available in different diameters, lengths and materials according to the product and application. Popular rope materials include 3-strand twisted natural manila rope for a traditional climbing-rope grip and synthetic rope options designed for environments where resistance to moisture, UV exposure or abrasion may be an important consideration.

Depending on the rope and available configuration, attachment options can include a loop top where the rope is spliced back into itself, an eye fitting for securing to an attachment, or a metal thimble. Rope bottoms can also use different end treatments to help prevent unraveling. Compare the current manufacturer's specifications when selecting rope diameter, material, length, attachment and end configuration.

Before use, confirm that the rope or cargo net, attachment hardware, mounting structure and installation method are appropriate for the intended application and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Inspect climbing equipment regularly and remove damaged or excessively worn equipment from service.
