Move of the Week: Arm Over Arm Pull

The Arm Over Arm Pull is an excellent functional, high endurance workout. The Arm Over Arm Pull features one of the easiest moves out there -- pulling an object closer to your body. It's a natural motion that we use almost daily. This workout is also as customizable as you want it to be! Want to make it harder? Add more rope for a longer pull length. Want to make it another step harder? Add more weight. It's an effective, versatile workout.

Why Arm Over Arm Pull?

However simple it may seem, the Arm Over Arm Pull works many different muscles. Not only is it good for the upper body and the lower back, but also to help build grip strength. After all, when you're exerting a lot of power you won't get much done if you can't hold on. The beauty of this workout is that the longer the rope is, the more of an endurance workout it becomes -- and the heavier the sled is, the more of a strength workout it becomes. The Arm Over Arm Pull will blast the biceps, shoulders, core, lower back, and will work your grip strength.
