Recommend an alternative to trx ropes

Midnight Sundance · 16-10-2020 01:07PM #1

Could someone recommend a brand of rope similar to trx ropes to use at home for a beginner. Dont have the money to be spending so much on the real trx ones so one that's good enough for home that won't break the bank.
Thank you

Also, would you recommend I get a medicine ball? What weight would be a good starter weight for it? Trying to build up a few home pieces of equipment and get more over time.

Thanks

Gymnastic rings. Med ball is bad value. Better off with barbell or dumbbell(s).

Very good quality for the money.

I went on holidays to France a few years ago and bought one, I still have it.

I'm surprised these are still in stock.. Probably the one of the best all round bits of kit for home training.

Yep , I got them too. Mine look slightly different, for 20euro you can’t go wrong. Postage is cheap if you can’t get to store

These ones allow you to change wash strap independently
