Stand facing the anchor point of the battle ropes with feet shoulder-width apart, holding one end of the rope in each hand.
Assume an athletic stance with knees slightly bent and core engaged.
Raise both arms overhead as high as possible, lifting the ropes up.
Slam the ropes down toward the floor as hard as possible, hinging slightly at the hips and engaging your core.
As the ropes hit the ground, immediately lift your arms again for the next slam.
Continue slamming the ropes with maximum effort for the prescribed time or number of reps.
