i decided today to skip my cardio workout on the treadmil,i wanted to give the rope climber a seriouse try,i was tired of hearing,how hard it is and that members were avoiding it and those who tried it avereged only 5 minutes,guess what,i did 20minutes and i could have done more,my staff were watching,their jaws droped,if i could do it,then,alot of people can,all you have to do is be focused,be stuborn,control your breathing and push yourself and give it a seriouse go.
