Infiniti Rope
Where Poseidon Strength began. The Infiniti Rope was a meaningful proof of concept that lead to one helluva workout device and Poseidon Strength’s first patent for its hydraulic system.

The Ideal Tool for
Training Grip & Pulling Power
Why it matters?
- Climbing a rope is proven to be the most effective full body workout.
- It was required nationally under the president’s fitness exam!
- Eventually the risks outweighed the benefits. We removed the risks, allowing you to enjoy the benefits!
- See the studied benefits below.
Climb Infinitely.
- Safe: climb safely suspended – up to 350lbs
- Continuous: climb continuously – at one of six speed settings
- Versatile: Climb as a static rope when speed is locked or change pulling angle for burnouts, replicated truck pulls or overhead pulls.
- Realistic: the only true rope climber on the market to replicate the experience of a traditional, free-hanging, three-strand rope
Studied Benefits of Rope Climbing
| Category | Statistic / Insight | Source / Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Grip Strength | Rope climbing can increase grip strength by up to 58% in trained individuals over 8–10 weeks. | (Schoffstall et al., JEP Online, 2001) |
| Upper Body Power | Rope climbing recruits up to 90–95% of upper-body musculature, including lats, biceps, forearms, and shoulders. | EMG studies on vertical pulling |
| Core Engagement | Rope climbing requires up to 75% maximum voluntary contraction of the rectus abdominis (core) to stabilize vertical ascent. | (McGill et al., spinal stability studies) |
| Neuromuscular Coordination | Dynamic rope climbing develops interlimb coordination, improving motor unit synchronization and movement economy. | Used in military and tactical athlete training |
| Functional Strength | Unlike pull-ups, rope climbing demands closed-chain, asymmetric force production, better mimicking real-world or on-field force application. | Functional fitness and rehab models |
| Caloric Burn | Rope climbing burns approximately 10–14 calories per minute, comparable to high-intensity battle rope training. | ACSM estimates |
| Tendon Resilience | Rope-based training can improve tendon load tolerance, especially in elbows and shoulders, due to eccentric braking and sustained isometric holds. | (Kongsgaard et al., Scand J Med Sci Sports) |
| Body Composition | Rope climbers (e.g., gymnasts, tactical athletes) show significantly lower body fat percentages and higher lean mass-to-weight ratios. | Normative performance data |
| Mental Benefits | Rope climbing enhances problem-solving, resilience, and risk assessment under fatigue due to its technical demand. | Military application literature |
| Grip Endurance | In a study of climbers vs. lifters, rope climbers had 2.5x longer grip time to failure during sustained holds. | (Watts et al., climbing performance research) |
