I have recently been using TRX
Trainer the TRX Suspension Trainer as my new home gym equipment. If you have
not heard of it, it is basically two straps that are suspended from an above TRX Suspension Training anchor point. I
have it setup in my basement hooked around the "I" beam. It is called suspension
training because you are suspended while you are training. There are over 300
exercises you can do with the suspension trainer. All of these exercises are
using your bodyweight in combination with the TRX.
Many of the exercises with the suspension trainer can be combined into
supersets or tri-sets without having to let go of the straps or without taking
your feet out of the foot cradles.
Here are some of my favourite TRX Exercises that you can combine into
Supersets or Tri-sets.
If I said to you I could do bodyweight bicep curls you would probably think I
was crazy. Well you can do them with the TRX. Start by shortening the straps and
lean back on an angle so there is some resistance. All you have to do now is a
bicep curl. You can do this exercise by itself or as a tri-set or inset tri-set.
I think I may have just made that up.
The reason that this can be a tri-set is because you can easily change from
the regular bicep curl angle (palms up) to hammer curls (palms facing inward)
and then to reverse bicep curls (palms down). You can either do one rep of each
before switching or finish one set and move to the next movement. This is a
great bicep workout for getting your biceps pumped.
TRX Suspended Reverse Crunches
Another unique exercise is suspended reverse crunches. Start in the push-up
position with your feet in the suspension trainer foot cradles. Crunch your
knees TRX Italia into your chest while
they are suspended in the suspension trainer. This is great for your abs and
hamstrings. You are getting an ab workout and hamstring workout in one.
If you would like to turn this exercise into a superset you can also add a
chest workout to this as well by add a push-up in after each crunch. If you want
to make it really difficult then stop when you have your legs curled in and hold
that position for 5 seconds. It's a great way to hit the lower abs. Some call
this movement the atomic push-up.
There are many exercises that you can combine together into supersets and
tri-sets using the TRX Suspension Trainer.
