Course Details
The National Qualification in Battle Rope and Sandbell Training course covers all relevant areas to ensure that you hit the ground running.
- OVERVIEW
-
Heavy rope training has been around as far back as Egyptian times and has been used as an effective method of exercise, as a stand alone workout, or integrated into a cross training approach. Now heavy rope training is gaining in popularity and becoming mainstream.
If you’re looking for a unique, highly effective, full body kinetic chain workout and conditioning that brings a new twist to you and your clients’ health fitness routine, this is it. Not only will rope and sandbell training increase your strength, power and endurance, the constant motion of rope undulations will impress you with a full body muscle-toning, metabolic workout unlike any other. You’ll be amazed at how fast a few quick whips can get you to your optimal heart rate.
Many gyms are now introducing ropes and sandbells as part of their sports conditioning and functional training zones but, with no formal training available in Ireland to date, NTC are proud to be the first providing comprehensive training for qualified health fitness instructors and personal trainers to learn how to use them effectively.
