Although suspension training, as it’s known in its current form, was popularized in the 19th century, it’s been practiced for millennia. Anthropologists discovered ancient tribes in the Andes Mountains using ropes in a similar way for exercise. Even the American Old West featured cowboys training using ropes secured to fence posts in order to exercise. Suspension training employs cables and ropes with rings or straps to exercise an individual using their bodyweight as the resistance.
