    Hey guys just wanted to ask your thoughts on rope climbing as a good excercise for boxing? I know its really a good excercise in general, great for your back, but my concern is it might bulk up your biceps anyone do this?

    My concern would be thatthe main action is the pulling of the arm back as opposed to thrust of the arm forward. I cannot imagine it developing much punch explosiveness.
