Here’s my TRX Suspension Trainer Review. Looking at about TRX for approximately per year, I finally ordered one and also have been surprised by how versatile it is. I love it so much that I’ve added to my listing of the perfect workouts.
The TRX Training system was designed by former Navy Seal Randy Hetrick. He was looking for an full body workout system that he and his Seal Team could take anywhere in the world and get a fantastic workout. The TRX technique is sometimes called to some “workout in a bag” and is employed by troops in Afghanistan, Iraq and several other locations of the world. Its possible you’ve seen them used in popular fitness shows like The Biggest Loser.
The TRX Suspension Cable workout is made up of set of carefully crafted high strength straps that are put together use a great workout. The straps may be quickly adjusted and anchored behind a closed door, so be certain and order a kit using the optional door anchor if you’re planning on working out at home or on business trips. It can really connect to just about everything from the telephone pole to monkey bars.
One of the advantages of the TRX straps is that they works extremely well by alomst any fitness level. Given that they use your own bodyweight, you can vary the concentration of the workout by simply moving your hand or foot position.
I recommend making use of the TRX system for a circuit training system. Choose a set of 5-6 exercises and do them in 45 second intervals and the take a 15 second break. For only five sets, you can get a great full body workout. Here’s a good example of one of my TRX Workouts:
1. Squat using a hop at the top.
2. Chest press.
3. Arm Curl.
4. Back Pull
5. Triceps Press
6. Shoulder raise
The TRX Straps are specifically beneficial to rehabilitation after a personal injury. As a result of stretch that you will get while training, it can best be described as yoga and weight lifting combined.
