The World's Best Hand & Grip Strength Training Instruction
TOP-QUALITY MANILA CLIMBING ROPES
Looking for the best climbing ropes in the game? You found 'em!
During the twentieth century, the strongest men on the planet all came from the same place: York, Pennsylvania.
Olympic weightlifters, bodybuilders, and strength athletes of all kinds flocked to York, which became
known as "Muscletown, USA" - and it produced champion after champion.
In the old York Gym where they all trained, there was a manila climbing rope attached to one of the
heavy beams in the ceiling. The lifters used to always have contests to see who could climb it
the fastest and Bob Hoffman couldn't help but notice that the strongest rope climbers were
also the strongest guys in the gym. Bob sure didn't think that was any coincidence...
Rope climbing is a very simple exercise; in fact, it is probably the simplest exercise
you will come across. Rope climbing has been one of the favorite exercises of combat athletes all over the world
for centuries. Many historians agree that rope climbing is one of the earliest forms of gymnastic
equipment ever practiced, and ancient ropes have been unearthed from several sites in Ancient Greece.
Even thousands of years ago, they knew that rope climbing was one of the most effective ways to
strengthen the entire body and develop "real world" functional strength.
Nowadays, however, finding someone who is serious about rope climbing is about as easy as
finding hen's teeth.
Part of the reason for this has been that high-quality rope set-ups are few and far between...
But with FHS on the case, finding high-quality ropes will never again be a problem for serious athletes.
This is the place for the highest-quality manila climbing ropes you can find,
just like the ones you probably climbed back in gym class in grade school
and just like the ones found in many of the turn-of-the-century gyms and gymnastic clubs.
Now you can add rope climbing to your routine and watch your strength levels take off like a rocket.
Functionalhandstrength.com proudly reintroduces high-quality manila climbing
ropes back into the strength training world.
The Highest Quality Manila
Climbing Ropes You Can Buy
Our climbing ropes are made of superior quality three-strand 1-1/2" diameter pure "Grade A" manila fiber
and come complete with specially designed steel eye-hooks on one end, making
installation literally a snap.
One thing you definitely do not want to skimp on
is the quality of your climbing rope, especially if you're 15 feet in the air. Here's why
these ropes won't "let you down."
(Figure 1.)
These natural manila fiber ropes absorb perspiration for the best grip and are
extremely durable. (L-1 Quick Link carbineer included.) These ropes have been tested to support
over 1800 pounds so you can be sure of a safe and secure climbing experience every time.
(Figure 2.) The other end of our ropes comes wrapped in a "polyboot" designed to prevent
fraying and unraveling, thus significantly extending the life of your
rope under heavy use. This is especially important in team situations.
(Figure 3.) And in case you might be wondering, there are many different ways to
train with ropes besides climbing...
Let's say you don't have a place to hang your rope. Due to the unique eye-hook construction, you can
attach your rope to a high or low pulley in the gym, allowing you to perform some
of the most effective exercises around.
5 Standard Lengths
We currently have five standard manila rope lengths available: 15, 18, 20, 22, and 24 feet.
Our recommendation when selecting your climbing rope length is to have at least
4 feet of "slack" beyond the distance between the attachment point and the floor - this makes it easier
to get on and off the rope, as well as for spotters to prevent swinging. Our ropes are
measured from the top of the metal fitting to the end of the polyboot.
If you need any other custom length, just let us know - we can do any cut-to-order length that you need for your gym.

Whether you train in your basement, in the wrestling room,
or at the gym down the street, the list at left shows just a sampling of the exercises
you can do with a rope.
This list is by no means exhaustive and keep in mind that almost all of
these exercises can be done with one or two arms, giving you an endless
supply of variations to keep your workouts fresh. As you can see,
there are plenty of ways you can use ropes to become stronger
besides climbing. Make ropes a part of your program and you can build strength in an infinite
number of ways.
But no matter how you train with them, I guarantee these are the best climbing ropes in the
industry. Don't trust your training to anything less...
Train hard,
