TRX Suspension training has arrived! March 20, 2010
Gravity + nylon webbing+ your body= effective and fun workouts!
We’re introducing this awesome new program slowly- teasers in other classes and a 9:30am class on Friday mornings but by March 30th you can expect more. It truly is worth playing hooky from work on a Friday morning to check it out.
What is suspension training you ask? The simplest distinguishing feature is that the users hands or feet are suspended by a single anchor point while the other end is in contact with the ground. Using the TRX, the desired percentage of your own body weight is loaded (via position and angle) into a targeted zone then animated for the exercise. It can be used with all fitness levels and builds great functional strength, stability and flexibility. Exercising on the TRX utilizes gravity and movement to generate neuromuscular responses to changes in body position and mechanical advantage. The TRX integrates strength and balance into a single dynamic format that taxes the nervous system at a high level and maximizes benefits for faster results.
