What is the TRX?

A unique training tool that provides endless exercise options for all fitness levels using your own body weight and gravity as resistance.  The design of the TRX allows you to transition fluidly from exercise to exercise and provides limitless Jonathan teaches trainers to use the TRX outdoors at DCAC 2008variations to keep your workouts challenging, fun, and results-driven.

I love because it has a "tire swing in the back yard" feel to it.  Workouts need to provide a sufficient challenge to get res lts.  But who says you can't have a blast while doing them?  I truly enjoy the way the TRX keeps an element of play to workouts while presenting a challenge that stimulates both body and mind.  Hear my quick summary of what the TRX is and what it can do for you in the video below:

Why should I use the TRX?

The TRX is the most effective, comprehensive piece of training equipment I’ve encountered in recent years.  The TRX is extremely efficient because you can get a complete workout in 20-30 minutes.  And it's fun.  I've used with people who "hate exercise," and they even enjoy using it.

As the ONLY TRX Master Trainer in the greater Washington, DC area, and one of the top fitness professionals in the industry, I can tell you that the TRX is the first exercise equipment to actually suit all people of all fitness levels, is portable, and can be used almost anywhere. 

Where can I use it?

Almost anywhere!  It's design makes it easy to set-up, take down, and transport.  It weighs 1.7 pounds and in the nylon carry bag is about the size of a shoe.  I always travel with my TRX and have used it at the beach, in parks, in hotel rooms, in gyms, and at home.  It is easily anchored over pull-up TRX on Jeep!bars, monkey bars, around a tree, over a door, around fence posts, or on a squat rack.  I've even anchored it to my car!  But, be careful.  Once you have a TRX, you will no longer have an excuse for missing a workout because you couldn't get to a gym or have no access to equipment. 

Who can use it?

ANYONE at ANY LEVEL can train on the TRX.  Since your own body weight and the forces of gravity create our resistance, the intensity of a workout is easily adjustable by changing the angle of the body relative to the TRX.  Therefore, the TRX is extremely appropriate for all ages and abilities despite the dominance of exercise images on the company website toward more advanced movements.

How do I know which exercises are appropriate for my training?

Contact me if you would like a TRX training program designed.  Almost every time I use my TRX for a workout, I get new ideas for exercises.  As one of the company's select few Master Trainers, I have the privelege of teaching workshops with the TRX to train other TRX course instructors and educate fitness professionals on the use of the TRX - and this helps create even more ideas.

I even created a promotional "Super Hero" workout with the TRX featuring exercises modeled after Superman, Spider Man, Wonder Woman, Daredevil, Wolverine, and others. Click here to check it out.

Additionally, there are several DVD’s offered to complement your knowledge of TRX exercises.  Each DVD comes with a laminated or spiral-bound workout guide that is as valuable as the DVD itself since it's infrequently practical to watch a DVD while using the TRX.  

I would recommend the following DVDs:
Core Strength, Vol. 1
Healthy Back
Tennis
Strength
