Working in a team, we explored ways to redesign and improve CrossFit equipment. I looked at Crossfit rope handles, which need to be more ergonomic and had no way of increasing difficulty. The solution was to design a more ergonomic rope handle with replaceable weights to increase difficulty.

To promote the high-energy environment of Crossfit, faceted forms are used. The hard lines with faceted shapes show the energy needed during these exercises. A Voronoi pattern is used across all the equipment for a better grip and to create a more cohesive overall design. The redesigned rope handles give the user a comfortable grip while ensuring the right muscle groups are used. The new handles gradually get more prominent near the back to accommodate various hand sizes. The weights can be easily rotated and removed from the handle to be replaced with heavier weights to increase the resistance of the rope exercise.
