"Are You Stronger Than King Kong?"

2-inch Thick Manila Climbing Ropes
Now Available For True Maniacs Only...

I'm sure everyone would agree that rope climbing is a serious workout... There's no other exercise quite like rope climbing for building a "gorilla grip" and a sturdy back. Our traditional 1.5-inch diameter climbing ropes provide a number of interesting exercises for any routine.

...but more and more athletes have been clamoring for a new rope climbing challenge and so here it is:

Top-Quality 2" Thick Manila Climbing Ropes

Functionalhandstrength.com is now carrying 2" thick full-length manila climbing ropes for the true rope climbing maniacs out there. These ropes feature the same great components of our 1.5" manila ropes and are made one at a time by hand by our master rope-smith:

  • Five standard lengths - 15, 18, 20, 22, and 24 feet (custom lengths are available)


  • Composed of the highest quality 3-strand Grade-A manila - The very best in durability and safety


  • Safe and secure steel indoor attachment clamp - Makes on/off a snap - Literally!


  • "Polybooted" End to prevent unraveling - You want your rope to last forever


  • L-1 Carabiner attachment link - Included with all manila climbing rope orders



  • L-1 Attachment Link
    (Included with all Manila Climbing Rope Orders)

    A Whole New Kind of "Thick Bar" Training

    The Old Time Strongmen knew one of the secrets to building frightening forearm strength -- use thick-handled training equipment. Now you can apply that concept in an entirely different way, except that 2" manila has a slight "give" to it, forcing you to grip and grab on even tighter that a steel bar. -- This means even stronger hands for you.

    There Can Be More To It Than Just Climbing...

    I won't beat around the bush -- our traditional 1.5" manila climbing ropes are more than enough of a challenge for just about anyone and most will NOT be able to climb a 2" diameter manila rope unless they are a real stud... If you want to learn to climb a rope, DO NOT start with the 2" diameter. However, if climbing isn't your bag, you can still get a great workout with the 2" ropes anyway.

    Attach your climbing rope to a high pulley or even just an overhead beam and go to work. Pullups, hanging leg raises and even just timed hangs will be more than enough of a workout for most people and you won't need cathedral ceilings for the "grip" affect either. They say being able to do 10 rope pullups is equal to climbing a 15 foot rope...

    Comparison of Rope Diameters


    No Matter how you train with them climbing ropes can bring a whole new dimension to your workout. Get 'em Now!
