Begin in an athletic stance, with your feet a little wider than shoulder-width distance apart, squatting down slightly. Make sure you're far enough away from the ropes to create a little tension while still being able to keep your weight shifted back in your heels with both feet flat on the ground.
Hold a Toning Rope in each hand with your arms extended in front of your chest. Fold slightly at your hips so your torso is leaning forward, keeping your back flat.
With nearly straight arms, keeping a slight bend in your elbows, engage your core while pulling the Toning Ropes out wide slightly lower than shoulder height. Then bring the handles back to the starting position.
This counts as one rep. Focus on pinching your back muscles together with every rep.
Perform reps for 20 seconds, followed by a 10-second rest for round one, 30 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round two, 40 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round three, 40 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round four, 30 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round five, and 20 seconds followed by a 10-second rest for round six. Rest for 30 to 45 seconds between rounds.
