I didn't see the video but I have heard the term Rope Push-ups in Karl Gotch's Video Conditioning For Combat Sports. Exercise seems rather difficult and uses other muscles unlike ground push-ups.

I couldn't view the site but clearly using asuspended rope is a good way to perform any number of Power Cals including pushups; just grab the rope & "go". Anyone can position themselves with respect to the rope to make the moves very easy or very hard.
! 1/2" dia. is what I use
Although the stability challenge isn't nearly as great as Warrior T pushups, it's nonetheless worthwhile & may help as a prep for the Warriors
