The Underrated Movement Practice YOU can do ANYWHERE

[@NsimaInyang]

I really hope you guys give this practice a shot, shoot any questions you have in the comments! As mentioned, I made a full FREE foundations course (Link in description) that will get you comfortable with the rope in the next 4 weeks. No joke, I think this will be life changing for a lot of you (as it has been for me). Orrrr maybe I'm just lost in the flow sauce

I’ve been flowing for 3 years. Advanced ropeflow gives you superior agility and coordination. I coach student athletes and I leave them shaking their heads when I demonstrate ropeflow. Definitely underrated!

Man, it’s amazing. The coordination benefits are something else, and I love that it’s something EVERYONE can do! My 65 year old mom loves this stuff.

[@boxprogramming13]

I was so stoked to see you not only cover this but find out that you're doing it everyday! Finding rope flow has been the missing link that has tied a lot of things together for me. I use it for 1-2 of my zone 2 sessions each week. I love the fact that I can work on my upper body mobility, get into a flow state, get some sunlight and grounding all at the same time. Not to mention that unlike most cardio (running, rowing, biking), there is ZERO lower body interference. It's just fantastic and I'm thrilled to see a big youtuber like you giving this some shine!

[@NsimaInyang]

Man, you hit the nail on the head! This practice is absolutely incredible. Pumped for more people to get involved!

Besides using those you could also get some extra flow and benefits by strengthening the wrists through flowing with clubs and maces. One thing you will notice when you use steel clubs is that your grip around people's wrists and ankles gets so much stronger

It's crazy that you're replying to every comment. Your videos has this like "grindset" vibe that is really just trying to sell you stuff. It's just marketing 101: sell an idea, not the product. And you're good at it. But at the same time you seem very sincere, and I'm also of the opinion that any (safe) movement is good movement and this firgure 8 movement pattern for spinal health is critically overlooked. And it looks fun and relaxing. You got me, I got myself a flow rope and a heavy one. Hope it's as good as advertised.

Despite being a Bosu Ball fan and an owner of a Weck vest when I saw David Weck introduce and wax poetically about rope flow I thought this was some arcane perhaps superfluous device that would yield small results for athletic performance. But your presentation is very convincing I might add rope flow to my training routine.

[@NsimaInyang]

I hope you do. It seems like an unnecessary practice, but the benefits you gain for coordination, rotational movement, even the symmetry of movement on both sides of the body. The practice is wildly beneficial for all types of movement and sport.

These are from thestrongerhuman.store/pages/winding-ropes I’m using the great white shark and the black whale in this video. I’ve got heavy ropes and lighter flow ropes here

[@VegasMoe]

I'm willing to bet you'll find these patterns in traditional Kung Fu. There is nothing new under the sun, but bringing back these patterns to the new generation will help in better movement and health. Thank you

[@NsimaInyang]

Oh of course, but that's the beauty of this. You find these patterns in Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Grappling, Swimming, Running, Sprinting. You can work these patterns with the rope through a low intensity practice. That's why I love it!

[@SavageEntertainmentYEAH]

Small things like this is what I look for. Body mechanics. How can I use the human body especially with our physical limitations to be better at my movements. I think specifically this could help understanding of torque into striking. The spine and hips is very important in generating power from short distances, in kung fu it’s called fa jin. This movement helps show you fa jin.

[@NsimaInyang]

I look at the rope as actually being a teacher, it can reflect good movement, and strikes you when you move poorly haha

[@SavageEntertainmentYEAH]

@@NsimaInyang yes that’s what I mean, the hip and spine movement teaches you to whip in your strikes, be it kicks or punches or even takedowns with more efficient power. In Chinese martial arts they do exercises like this. Actually I just got done from the gym and was using a big heavy rope to do some of these workout lol. My back, scapulas, shoulders, and hips feel activated and I’m drenched in sweat. This was honestly a really good exercise that has so many teaching benefits imo 🔥🔥🔥

Great recomendations but I'm not sure where you get "it's entirely preventable" from! Backpain can be prevented by improving strength, fitness, and lifestyle habbits, but not ENTIRELY, some backpain is caused by things that are not optional like genetics, autoimmune disorders, traumatic injuries, over exercising for sport, spinal infections, all sorts of things other simply being sedentary! For everyone else who is unable to entirely prevent back pain, keep doing what you can! Movement truly can make a huge difference to quality of life even if you can't prevent back pain (or any other pain).

You’re a Gem Nsima Thank you for the pro rope skills. I’ve been working with Qui Gong Tai Qui for 40 years and often wonder why it is that these beautiful healthful arts haven’t been incorporated into other fitness activities. What’s your thoughts on the “Tea Cups” for a dynamic flow activity?

[@NsimaInyang]

The tea cups are probably great for the shoulder! A good skill. I think there's more movement options with the rope, but the tea cup practice is great to learn!

[@paraworth]

@@NsimaInyang Yeah great for shoulder mobility. Tea cups can also be opened up to wider rangers of motion using full flexion extension and rotation. Both hands differing directions, on your feet on your toes. I love how the rope creates torsion and helps shift weight. The rope is a winner. Thanks for showing how elegant and optimal rope practice can be. Love the real content you’re putting it Nsima.

[@nunoribeiro7119]

Sir, this is amazing I practice POI flow and am thinking about an intermidiate flow/strength program with slightly weigthed POIs havent seen any1 try it. This seems amazing though! i've been thinking more and more about flow arts as a way to train flexebility and also (maybe) strength? kinda like indian maces but a rope with a moderate weight at the end making you resist centrifugal forces from the spin, the faster the spin the more you have to resist, while still training exercice form with lighter ones...

Flow ropes feel better and smoother than a jump rope. You CAN use a jump rope, but it won’t be as enjoyable. A rope is generally 1 purchase for a VERY long time. So all things considered, not a huge investment for the use you’ll get out of it.
