The TRX

The TRX Suspension Training System is one of my favorite tools that I use for training and for my clients. This is an amazingly versatile piece of equipment and not to mention can travel with ease and be used literally anywhere!  It's a very simple design: 2 handles with foot locks, two straps, and an anchor point that can be attached to many different apparatus'.

Many of the programs I write and the exercises I recommend to clients incorporate the TRX as a main stay in the protocol.  If you're looking for a great way to use your entire body, engage your core and stabilizers, and have one tool for countless movements, investing in the TRX is your best option!  You can get the entire ProPack (TRX, dvd, exercise explanation booklet, and carry bag) for under $200. Sounds like a small investment for such a big difference it will make for you!


I can't do it justice so I went to the TRX's website, http://www.fitnessanywhere.com/ , then copy&pasted their info for you guys.  This is from their educational site, enjoy!
