How to climb a rope

I was watching the CrossFit Games the other weekend when I saw the final event - the rope climb. It proved challenging to many competitors. For those that have never tried it, climbing a rope with your hands and feet is a lot more technical than you might think. In this video I go over several different ways to climb a rope, and how to train for it. I hope you find this useful for your training. Stay safe and good luck! -Jim Bonus: Check out another rope climbing video from 2006 where I climb up with 60 lbs around my waist! (Strangely enough, I'm wearing the same outfit...) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SArLgOOVXRg
