Yeah a regular rope feels like cheating now. Big difference in shoulder endurance. The Zeus is about three times as hard. I could only do 100 when I first got it compared to 250+ with a regular.

Been spending so much time on Assault bike lately, I decided to do a Row workout tonight.

Modified ours

6×500 with 1 min rest between 1:49-1:51

The assault bike has done wonders for my lungs and learning to live in an uncomfortable world.

It’s a love hate relationship with the assault bike. I agree on it being extremely beneficial to increasing my capacity but its still pretty terrible 🙂

I think you’ll be ok with dumbbells, they’ll be easier than a bar 🙂

These may pop up in the next couple of weeks!
