Benefits of Battle Rope Training. Battle ropes are often thought of as a tool for your upper body, which they are. However, their benefits don't end there.

These large, broad muscles -- which help create the characteristic V-shaped back of a bodybuilder -- are responsible for pulling your arms down and back, which is the action you use during the lat pulldown exercise. Lat pulldowns also work other muscles on your back, shoulders and arms.at pulldowns also work the rhomboid muscles on your upper back, which draw your shoulder blades toward your spine, as well as the lower trapezius muscles, which pull your shoulder blades down. The exercise strengthens the rear deltoids on the backs of your shoulders, which help pull the arms backward.
