TACFIT Commando vs TACFIT Rope

Thursday, September 1st, 2011 at 8:25 am

A while back I wrote a post on comparing the TACFIT Commando and TACFIT Warrior programs, and now I’m getting asked a lot about how the Commando and ROPE programs compare. I know the TACFIT Programs aren’t exactly “cheap”, especially if you don’t buy them during the launch, but if you have ever bought one, you know they are definitely worth it.

I’ll begin by saying that the R.O.P.E program was greated as a plugin module to TACFIT Commando. A lot of people complained that the Commando program did not have any pulling movements, and that they felt that their backs were being left out. This is definitely not true, if you have ever tried TACFIT Commando you know your back gets a nice workout, but Scott decided to please his students with the R.O.P.E program.

TACFIT Commando is purely bodyweight training, you don’t need weights, clubbells, or any other type of equipment, just some space and your body; while the R.O.P.E program requires a rope, somewhere to hang the rope, and a pair of gloves. If you have never Tacfitted before (new verb there for you), you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how hard the workouts are. Don’t make the mistake I did at first of judging the program by the intensity of the exercises. If you practice them individually, which I recommend so that you can develop good form, you may find them to be easy, but don’t fool yourself. TACFIT is not about individual parts… Just try it. Spare me the agony of having to look for words that describe them.

In summary, both programs use the Tabata protocol, one is strictly bodyweight, while the other requires a rope. No matter which one you choose, you’ll end up kissing the floor and begging for mercy (I’ve come close to crying with both these programs). R.O.P.E works your back out a bit more than the Commando, but in my opinion Commando helps you develop more functional strength. I personally love TACFIT Commando, and I love the R.O.P.E as a plug in and not so much as an individual program.

There really aren’t that many more differences. If you can’t make up your mind, I’ll just put you at ease by saying that you can’t go wrong with either one. TACFIT R.O.P.E is a lot cheaper, not because it is worse, but because it does not bring as many workouts. Both programs have 3 different levels of difficulty (i.e recruit, grunt, and commando), but Commando has three missions, while R.O.P.E only has 1. This means that commando has 6 months more of workouts that R.O.P.E. The Commando manual also explains the theory behind the awesomeness, in the R.O.P.E their is no explanation. These are the reasons why one is more expense than the other.
