How to Use the Endless Rope Vertical Pulling Machine

Upper Body Workout Playlist:
• Head Strength Coach Ch...
The endless vertical rope pull strengthens the back, chest, and shoulders, while challenging hip and core stability especially in the half kneeling position.
This exercise involves a vertical suspension point to provide a training stimulus similar to rope climbing and is an excellent way to incorporate metabolic conditioning as part of a workout. It can be used in individual workouts or performed in a competitive format in group fitness settings.

I love hitting this machine then immediately going to the seated cable rows….makes me feel like I’m on an old Viking ship getting it ready to set sail😂

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Love this! lol 🏴‍☠️

[@brookhaven86]

Used this machine just now after doing arms. What a fun workout! Always looking for something different to breakup the routine and this was perfect

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Great to hear!

[@Holly5794]

I used this machine for the first time today. I couldn't do much because I'm really out of shape and it's gonna take time but I do love it. I will be using it more often

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Love to hear it! Thank you for joining us

[@RolandoWitherington-pv2fm]

The ropes are durable and just like the ones at the gym. kzbin.infoUgkxTFxba6lNeHrZaHoY_LXe6ZzmMfaipnwu Caution: I bought the 50 feet ropes and they are long and heavy so make sure you have the space (I do have the space). If I was to do it again I would probably get a shorter version as 50 feet (25 feet each side) is a little long.

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

The ropes KILL!

[@jaykiec21]

I love this machine at my gym. Not a lot of people are using it so I use it more !😎

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Awesome!

[@conanobrian8580]

Kudos to this dudes heart. He didnt breath very hard after going beast mode 3:35

[@conanobrian8580]

I can do 20 reps per set after doing treadmill for an hour immediately prior. Definitely taxing on the heart which is good you dont want to over do it

[@joshgarcia1899]

This one hits my triceps Hella hard. Probably one of my fav exercises

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Awesome! Sounds like it's working well for you 💪

[@dreamfaith7]

Was jst about to ask what all it works … I jst nitced thy put one in our gym today

[@Kavanaugh_Kohls]

My gym just got one of these, used it today. Not only was it a good workout but it was FUN!

[@raheembrown7673]

I just discovered this machine I tried it and it real enjoyed it so I decided to see what’s the benefit and came across your video thanks for the info it was very informative I’m definitely going to start using it more often

[@Wineingmomma]

Set a timer for 4 minutes and was about in a full sweat when I was done 🥵😭😂 def got the heart rate going and can’t wait to try the other routines with it.

[@elainekolmar6898]

Great info! Thanks

[@thomaswebb712]

So Glad I watched this video, I’m 67 and been using this along with the battle rope but I never done the angles that you showed, I will install these into my workout

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Love to hear it! Keep up the work friend 💪

[@PC-zg3eo]

Great video. It gives me more confidence to master this equipment.

[@eliza2247]

Thank you so much!! I just found this machine and I'm loving it

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Great to hear! Stay blessed

[@retsvus]

Thanx for this valuable video. Never saw this "Endless Rope" before, but seems a swell idea....

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

You're welcome!

[@cindimams4394]

Thank you I just joined a gym that has this and now I know what to do.

[@abbiegrier207]

i honestly love the “not wimpy” note

[@familyof0075]

great video!

[@camdonhill]

I used one at the gym for the first time last week. I’ve used it every time since then. 😂 I totally underestimated it the first time too. It wore me out pretty quick. Lol

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

It's a great exercise and its fun! A good way to break away from the average workout.

[@Blihnd]

I love this exercise really gets me pumping

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Awesome! Glad you loved it 👍

[@cynthiawinfield9950]

Oh I’m definitely adding this to my workouts!

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Perfect!

[@sharonmitchel1377]

Our new sr fitness center has this in the gym. I think I will try standing with my back to it. I really have a hard time engaging my triceps. I used it today facing it and loved the feeling.

[@lizz3104]

Thanks for this video

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Most welcome!

[@joshua.moreno.cre1]

Great ideas. Thank you

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

You're very welcome! 💪

[@theresab8501]

Discovered the vmx multi rope trainer yesterday at gym. Used it for 4 mins. I liked the motion but not sure if machine is working properly. Levels are 1-7. 7 most intense. I used 6 because I didn't want to overdo it but didn't feel much. I will try again next visit. Thanks for video!

[@OscarHernandez-rc5yo]

Try three sets of 40 reps each and one minute rest between and you will see🤣

[@shaquetta81]

Thank you so much for this video!! My job recently opened a brand new gym and they have this machine. This video was extremely helpful and I'm super excited to try this out now!!

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

You're so welcome! We can't wait for you to try it 👍

[@havokdr3d535]

Glad I found this never used this one before and didn't want to look like an idiot in the gym

[@nawfalbensaidi5350]

Thank you for this video! Does it help shoulders too?

[@petercole6344]

Excellent video

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Thank you very much!

[@jennyjenjen1633]

​@@CriticalBenchCompound would this help with the "bat wings" some of us get with age? I just saw it at the gym and did it for 2 minutes and it feels like I did it longer, lol

[@BrandanTheBroker]

Seen this machine at my gym and never tried it until last week, now I'm going to master this machine until the machine cries for help 😂

[@CTS55555]

I do hiit with it. I do fast pull to get my heart rate to my personalized high heart rate zone….then I do slow pull to bring down to low zone heart rate.

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Great routine 💪

[@jamarjohnson6077]

Thanks, brother. Gonna use it with my daughter tomorrow. She is trying to drop lbs to join the military

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Awesome!

[@st3psp8]

I seen a video of a guy doing this and there’s one at my gym. I’ll try it tomorrow. Thanks for the great instruction!

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

You're welcome!

[@wafan13]

Where do you buy the rope loop?

[@WeimaranersAreTheBest]

My new gym has this.. I set tabata for 2 mins. Then i superset a chest exercise. Man Finally noticed my upper back/ shoulders getting bulky. Love it

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Thanks for sharing!

[@familyof0075]

Hi, is this machine ony good for back or will it help with triceps. I started going to the gym and did this machine. I need triceps work. can you please give me advice.

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

This isn’t really a Triceps move, you might target the muscle very little near the end of the ROM but there are way better options for hitting Triceps. Try tricep extensions!

[@rodrigoturcios593]

can i include this at the end of my weight training as cardio? i dont want to over do any muscles so im not sure if i can do the endless rope on a daily basis

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

If you're well trained this rope pull would be excellent for an ending cardio exercise.

[@Nahulanham]

I mix them into my daily workouts. I do three sets of 100 each. Really great to build hands, forearms, back and lats.

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Good stuff!

[@SC-xf3mz]

Tried this at the gym... and by the 4th rep, I felt fatigued... but like anything else with repetition, you get better

[@sonkwonbaik88]

Well this machine named endless rooe May will increase lat muscles?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Yeah this will hit the Lat Muscles 💪

[@maxfoth2]

Is a single pull from both the left and right arm considered one rep? Thanks

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

I've seen both of those used as a way to count

[@ScottWadeSalemVa]

Is 50 reps, 25 each arm? How many times a week do you suggest this exercise? Thanks for video. Fighting hips issues so I’m searching for alternatives for cardio using upper body.

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

2/3 times a week depending on how your body responds, soreness etc

[@candicec6513]

If using for cardio, time it v counting reps. HIIT can be 30-60 sec tabatas or cycles with a 30-60 sec rest between repeat maybe 4 times depending on your heart rate response and your fitness level. Check heart rate while resting

[@NotMyName888]

Shoulders make popping noises doing this. Any advice?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Focus on ROM exercises, and Rotator Cuff Strengthening

[@chefcurry7707]

ayo pause on the arm extensions 😂

[@pappapaps]

3:32 That's what she said! Hey-ooo

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

👍 good stuff! thank you for watching!

[@pappapaps]

@@CriticalBenchCompound It was too perfect, I had to, but great video. I'm looking for a spot in the ceiling to hang a wheel from, so you definitely got to me

[@Mario-jf4fr]

I got a cramp watching this

[@Potatolover834]

I want to ask you a question can you please tell me that is this exercise better than any yoga asana?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Uhh it's difficult to answer, they are both different exercises. It depends on what youre trying to achieve

[@jimmybritton1028]

When you say 50 reps, you mean 50 pulls? Sorry, I'm new to this.. Also, what do you recommend for an absolute beginner?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

I recommend scrolling through our channel in addition to our main channel Critical Bench. So many resources and ideas for you to choose from.

[@theblueyedcreature]

Bro so sweet the best exercise

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Glad you like it! Everyone has what they like

[@KarimaDiallo]

Will this help with belly fat?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

It could help with core strength and stability, but if you were to focus on fat loss you'd have to put the work and go for a minute or two to get your heart rate up 😉💪

[@maureennelson7656]

Where can I buy one of these rope pulleys for my home gym?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

Check out Rogue Fitness!

[@erintherapy]

@@CriticalBenchCompound No luck finding it there. Anyplace else you can recommend? Can you share some photos or a short closeup video of it? I can't see it well enough to recognize it online.

[@charlesradinick923]

what brand name is this endless rope?

[@charlesradinick923]

question answered in another comment. It's the same one I was looking to purchase. I heard they upgraded the rope design

[@BillDownsAlpha]

Is this a Torque? The only other me tion was VMX whixh doesn't seem to have a wall mounted version

[@ropeflex]

This one is a ROPEFLEX brand. RX2100 model

[@fmills1583]

I go to a gym that has 4 of them. I've been going there 2 months and not seen one other single person doing the endless rope. I do it everytime I go to the gym. Why do people avoid this machine?

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

People tend to avoid things they haven't done or aren't comfortable with

[@fmills1583]

[@rangvald4036]

I use this thing all the time. Lately I have been doing 20,000 feet of rope per day. It takes 2 hours. I am rehabilitating my back from 10 years of chronic pain and multiple injuries. It is slowly easing my pain

[@CriticalBenchCompound]

2 hours 👀, you're killing it
