I know it can look like a fad.... so the big question is would you give the rope a try?
Dragon Roll Tutorial ► czcams.com/video/PlvN1x0J_Mc/video.html
Hmm, have you tried poi?
Hey what kind of rope is that?
@@youngphil8766 You can find it at your local dollar general store by the crowbars, ski masks, and pillow cases. Remember though, never carry more than 2 of those at a time might get accused of hate crimes.
SMH, way of the rope sounds like a white supr3macist movie.
Rope flow looks a lot like double dutch practice, minus jumping in. All of these videos make me think adults just need playgrounds and time.
Playgrounds for adults would be so good
That's what I call the calisthenics sets. They are so much fun. Dudes going to an actual playground for a workout might not vibe so well with parents, or that is just in my head.
If we never stopped playing leap frog…
@@balazsbrankovics2996 I do this all the time when I take my kids to the playground. Everyone else is sitting on their phone and I'm doing pull-ups and monkey bars. Might have go find the slow time at the park if you don't have kids idk.
@@matttcameron_me too lol. I was 298lbs and my daughter told me one day at the playground dad why do t you play with me at the park and that changed my perspective on life as both my parents past away when I was younger due to bad health. I started watching strength side animal flows and a year later I was 180lbs. Now my daughters friends at the park call me the monkey man because I crawl and exercise on the jungle gym lol. Now I’m going to incorporate rope flow into my martial arts flow as well
I’ve been practicing for the last 3 years. I have such bad coordination, it was super challenging for me. I started with rope skipping but when I first tried rope flow, it was like something clicked in my mind. Then you discover you can transfer the skill to Indian clubs, to steel clubs and bo staff, it’s just internalizing the patterns. For me replicating the movement on both sides was the most difficult. Very often, when I travel, I’ll just pack a rope and an elastic band.
Rope Flow is a good add to all rotational movements like Clubbells, Indian Clubs, macebell, hydrocore, Bulgarian bag etc
I've been doing medieval armored combat for 9 years, and I definitely agree - transferring power through a weapon is the same as swinging a rope. If your technique doesn't work with a rope, then you are probably causing undue strain on your joints when your strike lands.
Rope flow has been a game changer for my running technique. The joy of it is that after some rope practice, you don't even need to think about your running technique, it just subconsciously shifts to being more efficient. I love it ☺️🙏
What I like about this, and I enforce this with rehab clients, is that it builds coordination. Stimulating the mind and body together. Thereby improving balance and stability.
This video inspired me to try rope flow for myself with a bit of scrap line from my dad’s boating days. It’s so much fun I went ahead and ordered some real flow ropes and Tim’s course. I really love the way it has captured my imagination. The fun of it has me up and moving much more than usual. The low impact aspect plus the playfulness, plus flow? Yes!
Cool, I never heard of rope flow before. Going to be knocking shit over with a resistance band today for sure 😁
hahaha get after it mate
New dimension and a game changer in being conscious about muscle coordination. Great seeing you do this and bringing it to limelight.
Almost missed this Demo as I wasn't sure about the title and pleasantly surprised to be introduced to this technique. Imagining being outside on a brisk cold day and walking home from the park all sweaty. Good one❕
Most people dismiss ropeflow because it looks childish and simplistic. Ropeflow gives you the agility of a dancer, the full body coordination of a pole vaulter and the mental focus of a boxer. Try it.
haha well put!
I am drawn to it because it is childish and simplistic. Starting it tomorrow morning. Thanks, guys.
You guys turned me onto rope flow over a year ago and I am forever grateful
I was just looking for a date of their video. It is my anniversary also. Seems like year ago plus few days.
I would like to know the date since i am obsessed with ropeflow ever since.
Didn't miss spinning a day
Do you feel a difference?
Ive been active my whole life..running, cycling, lifting, surfing, swimming, hula paddling......this ONE activity appears to be such an overall warmup for many daily activities. The body loves rhythm....easy, simple...love it...thanks so much...im 63 now..heehee
I happened to catch your first vid with Tim about rope and bought a rope shortly after that... game changing to say the least. Use it nearly daily, been telling everyone I meet and even running workshops to get new peeps involved.
Thank you for being my gateway to heavy rope
I’ve practiced Flow Arts for almost 25 years, and I’m so happy you guys have discovered what’s so great about it -- it’s all REALLY good for your body, and is an incredible workout. I spin long staff (contact staff), double staff, poi, dragon staff, and occasionally fans. Rope flow is closest to poi. Cheers!
Just love this and I’m sold. I’m heading to the linked site to get busy. Thank you!! Love you and peace.
Appreciate you turning me on to the rope over a year ago. It's been a great relationship. The flow has been fun and also very meditative. Part of my daily routine... Congratulations on the twins!
Much love for highlighting rope flow❤ 3 years in, it has changed my body and spirit.
Tim Shieff!! Movement LEGEND. Glad to see him back in action. Great stuff.
I just turned 63 today. In the past two years I've learned so much from this channel regarding fitness, training & healthy lifestyle.
Thanks! ✌️
I wonder if the benefits with improving how you walk are partially because it involves crossing the midline? Crossing midline strengthens the neural connection between the left and right hemispheres of your brain. Crossing the midline activities help develop gross motor skills such as coordination and balance. I learned about the midline when my son went to occupational therapy. I'm going to do this with my son. Thanks for the inspiration!
thanks a lot for great content again! Congratulations on the birth of your twin boys . They are very lucky to have you as their father. May your journey of parenthood be a long and enjoyable one :)
Love it! Thank you for sharing this!
Im So Happy to see this team!! Rope Flow Completely changed my life!
Awesome, never heard of this. thank you so much.
I love, love, love my RMT rope from Weck! It really helps with my shoulder mobility, coordination, and propreoception.
What are your thoughts on the rope? Will you be trying it out?
Dragon Roll Tutorial ► czcams.com/video/PlvN1x0J_Mc/video.html
Because it looks simple enough to build some skill and fun, I can do this and enjoy learning. I'm nearly 68, will likely help me a lot. Thank you so much 😊🎉
This is new to me and very interesting. I will be delving into it.
Thanks!
One of the most prominent parkour masters of the previous decade turned rope hippy... I'm sold.
Been doing the rope for close to a year now. Thanks to Weck! great exercice for fluidity, mobility ect. Made my Mountain Trail Running improve.
Nice! I saw the same benefits
Another awesome video will be teaching my kids this one it's simular to the propeller exercise with a resistance band but this can be used anywhere
So thankful for the rope and all it has taught me about moving joyfully! This summer on a big road trip I would bust out the rope at rest stops as a great way to move around on long driving days. And between rope and crawling around I don't really get clicky shoulders anymore when I do simple things like reach up to turn the ceiling fan off in the morning.
rope and crawling is such a good combo
Hi guys,
great video, as always! Thanks!
Sometimes I manage to arrive early to the gym class and then I always use the rope for warm-up.
Very even warm-up for the whole body and a very good warm-up as well.
Keep up the good work!
BR, M
Thanks for welcoming me into your space and spreading this wonderful practice with the world!
p.s. miss Shiloh already.
Just starting rope flow LOVE it but could use any suggestions that can adjust it for an amputee, missing my entire right arm.
@@vaughan45gI would love to see a considered collab between Tim, StrengthSide and D Weck himself tackle interesting questions questions like this one. Hope you’re still enjoying your practice and getting real benefits from it ✌️
@vaughan45g, Six months since your comment, how is it going?
I have some experience coaching adaptive athletes and I’m a little over a year into my rope practice. I would think that being you’re focused on single arm patterns the magic will be in the footwork you bring into your practice. Steps, turns, spins, etc. I know that I get quite a bit of out of single arm patterns combined with locomotion. I will frequently take my rope for a walk, and even take it for a “jog” with slow bouncy strides (which can be tremendous cardio respiratory training).
We do a lot of rope handling with natural horsemanship. We use the best quality nylon double braid 1/2 inch. Our stick has 1/4 " 6 ft of rope on the end that is crackable with practice. Another fun thing to practice with your rope is to throw it, holding one end. Improves aim. A 3rd fun thing I want to try is sling and stone aim practice. Hope you do a video on that sometime😍
Rhythmical movements make exponential improvements to the neuromuscular system. And, of course, you're also working to improve dynamic balance. This is a superb fitness/wellness technology, which addresses many of the elements of fitness. I'm very impressed!
Your local climbing gym might give you their used/retired climbing ropes for free. Cut them into a bunch of pieces and you've got ropes for a party with all your friends
second :)
Great video & great idea with the rope!!
Doing some of the motions since around 10 years with sticks - but the rope definitely offers more options :))
Gonna try this right now :)
Thank you @strengthside!!
Very interesting! I will try it!!
Congrats on the kiddos! Gonna try this rope stuff. Also big thanks for the lems shoes recc i live in mine now :)
Interesting stuff!
Love this. The focus, flexibility, coordination and flow - I think it's a smart way to train without realising you're training.
👏👏👏🙏🙏 tree hérnias.. for years with pain...started conservative...3 montes now...90% pain gone.. can’t believe the change on my body.. this guys know what they are doing 👏👏
“Anything from Meditative to strategic” - I guess that description is how to convince me to try something
From a neurological perspective, any movement crossing the vertical midline of the body, like rope flow, increases firing of the corpus callosum, the "conduit" between the right and left hemispheres of the brain which provides a wealth of benefits too numerous to go into here, but short version is IT IS GREAT.
I haven’t seen Tim on anything in a long time. Crazy cause I was just thinking about him yesterday. I can see him being into this.
I am excited to try this rope flow thing. Cannot afford to get a rope just yet but soon I hope. Thanks for the tips
Is the correct rope back braided/weighted on both ends? If not it can be cheaper. Sunset halters can braid a nylon double braid rein product for you in the length you need.
Never heard of this and older people can do this thanks
OMG! You're in my hometown (if you call a county a town) in most of these videos. Love it 🤩🤩🤩. I was like... Redwoods?!? And then I was like, ah, the park, too! And the State beach!
Now just imagine what you could do with a long chain or a bo staff. Looking good my dude.
This seems really like flow performance, poi and rope dart and the such, ill have to give it a go, because those are great fun!
You are a very good CZcamsr.
Congrats on the twins!
This essentially just like flow arts like poi and Chinese rope dart/meteor hammer. Awesome! Glad to see stuff like this becoming more mainstream!
Interesante el ejercicio, relajante pues parece una diversión con efectos notables. Me interesa practicarlo, pero tengo una curiocidad. Hay alguna especificacion del largo de la soga? o puede ser como el tamaño estndar de una cuica? Gracias por su video.
I have been struggling getting started with flow. Even with all the stated benefits, I just can’t seem to get to it. Thank you for the incentive.
This is wicked in Australia.... A walking exercise with a built in fly swatter!!! Thanks
been using the rope before my workouts and love to flow out and about
Teaching yourself to flow sounds awesome. Maybe fun to try with my kids too? Thanks guys!!
kids will most likely love it!
Love the dog.
Really interesting, thank you. How is the ideal length of rope determined for each person?
Very good 😊 thx
This looks cool and I'm going to get me a rope and try it out.
Looks like a cross between jumprope and nunchaku. Have you tried nunchaku by the way? I've been tinkering with them for about a year now, not as a weapon or for fighting, but as a warmup / low intensity cardio. The various spins and rolls run the upper body through a bunch of different positions.
This is amazing. Be mindful though - doing all of those figure eights in any practice is about to manifest the world, so watch your thoughts words and actions (always) but especially immediately before during and after!
Hey guys,
Just found your channel - amazing work! Please don’t stop :)
Can you give me the top 5 videos to focus on to get myself started? 🙏🏼
This, hanging and squatting videos. I am just starting here as well, but had been doing these three things for awhile. Bob and Brad physical therapy to heal problem spots😁
I did competitive jump rope for a few years as a kid and we used a lot of these movements (just with much lighter ropes)
Reminds me of when I used to run with my escrima sticks and do drills while walking. A rope adds a little something and looks less imposing on the trails. I will try.
Great video. What rope would you recommend? Thank you.
State beach moonstone and big rock! Nice🤙
“Movement Snack”…..I like it!
Man when I was a kid there was always some grownup yelling at me to stop spinning my rope.
I loved it, finally I stopped but I've been picking it back up and sharing it with my kids. I think it's awesome how all the playthings are becoming workout things. We're breaking out of the gyms and taking it back outside.
Power to the outsiders .😂
I'm doing this tommorow morning guaranteed looks amazing
Do these ropes come in different weights as well? Seems to me, once you've become pretty fluid with them, it might be beneficial to step it up with heavier ropes?
Holy cow. You guys have a gym in Trinidad now? I wanna come! :)
This looks like a much needed form of excercise in one's life.
What must the length of the rope be? One's height?
I love that beach. Gonna give in avtry as soon as i heal my rotator cuff tear.
I’m curious, have you tried steel mace flow?
Reminds of the extension cord wind up my father used to do when he whipped us 😢
I've been doing the basics of rope flow for over a year now since your first collab together. Inspiring stuff. It has helped with my scoliosis therapy and my running. My only concern is the occasional deep stitch I get in my abs when I do it at high speed and intensity. I should probably just slow it down more often, but do you have any tips for avoiding that?
Another great question it would be good to get feedback on. Hope you’re still keeping up the practice and enjoying it.
@@prawncrisp5951 thank you for replying! Yes, still don't know what I'm doing wrong. I still do the rope flow, but really inconsistently. This is actually a good reminder to go do some. So thank you for that! I hope you have a great time with it too. 😊
Looks nice, but I'm immediately thinking of how to do those movements with Indian clubs, my latest fad.
I know I'm 100 years late in my Indian clubbs fad, but I'm a revival guy!
But steel clubs and maces are fairly new, aren't they?
I see just a few 10-years old YT videos about it!
I've got a shoulder issue that stops me from doing Indian clubs, which I enjoyed for many years. Rope flow might be a very good substitute.
OMG! I was trying to figure out why Tim Shieff looked so familiar and then I heard him talk!!! I know of Tim from the Parkour World Championships - dude's an absolute BEAST!
Rope flow is dope yo.
That's gotta be Oregon right? I loved living in Eugene.
reminds me of using a veil in belly dance - looks easy but is definitely any thing but. takes lots and lots and lots of practice.
That looks awesome, but what length of rope should i get?
Can you help me out? I seen one of your videos that said me should use more salt like more then the normal stated recommended amount can you explain or share the info you found on this. Because many people believe high salt intake causes heart problems? Thank you
A "movement snack", i like it.
This feels very much like playing Poi. Very nice!
Why not do skipping as well?
Soo Cool
That rope travels in a suitcase very well, too.
I just got my new ROGUE flow-rope. There was a 20%-off Black Friday sale, so it was only $799. They even included shipping!
😂
What 799 geez
Staff training does simmilar, or rope weapons from gung fu
I wonder if using numb chucks has any similar benefit?
How long are the ropes you use is it one size fits all
oh yah I immediately trust the inventor of the bosu ball to bring the next big thing especially if all big fitness influencers get paid to advertise it
What length of rope do you recommend?
I used to do this stuff as a kid. I wonder how hard it will be to pick it up again. I can remember how it felt. It was mumblemumble years ago
I'd love to see you start training with Kung Fu polearms for the movement aspect. Guan dao and trident would be intesting.
I gotta show this to my physiotherapist
Is this WA? OR? BC? Where is this?
