Steps

  1. 1 Stand facing the anchor point of the battle rope with your feet shoulder-width apart and a slight bend in your knees.
  2. 2 Grasp one end of the rope in each hand, palms facing each other, with your arms extended forward at hip height.
  3. 3 Initiate the movement by simultaneously raising one arm overhead while lowering the other arm towards your hip, creating an alternating wave pattern.
  4. 4 As one arm reaches its peak overhead, the other arm should be at its lowest point near your hip, maintaining tension in the rope.
  5. 5 Fluidly reverse the motion, bringing the raised arm down towards your hip as the lowered arm sweeps up overhead.
  6. 6 Continue this alternating, full-range-of-motion movement, creating continuous, powerful waves with the ropes.
