This article describes the use of two different rest intervals to quantify and compare the acute metabolic responses to battling rope (BR) exercise in athletes. In one group, subjects did not exercise for at least 24 hours before each testing session. Second control protocol involved a quiet sitting period 30 minutes in duration to offer baseline (BL) non-exercise metabolic data.
