What is TRX Suspension Training?

In the simplest form, Suspension Training refers to the broad body of unique training movements, coaching cues and program principles that have been created and systemized by Fitness Anywhere. Elements of modern training philosophy known as Suspension Training have existed for hundreds of years in various forms. What makes Suspension training fundamentally unique as a modern exercise genre is the systematic collection of best practices, both old and new, which have been assembled, modified and formalized into a single coherent body with a cutting-edge training methodology built around the TRX Suspension Trainer.  These training movements are distinguished from traditional exercises in that either the user’s hands or feet are generally supported by a single anchor point while the opposite end of the body is in contact with the ground.

 

Coming Soon: TRX® Suspension Training in a small, large, or boot camp-style group format. We are currently attempting to raise funds to purchase 10 TRX Suspension Trainers for the Group Exercise Room. If you would like to donate towards this project or have an idea to help raise this money talk to Eric Gerber or Doug Saunders.
