Zirv FitnessStrength exercise
Battle Rope Side-to-Side Waves
How to do it
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, holding one end of the battle rope in each hand at waist height.
- Keep the hips facing forward and the grip steady on both ends.
- Brace the core to resist rotation as the arms move side to side.
- Sweep both arms together to one side to create a wave, then reverse and sweep to the other side, working the shoulders through the lateral arcs.
- Exhale on each sweep and inhale during the brief transition to the opposite side.
- Avoid letting the torso twist with the arms instead of keeping the hips square.
