3 Effective TRX Exercises You Can Do Anywhere

The TRX suspension trainer is a versatile piece of equipment that allows you to work your entire body using just your own bodyweight. In this blog post, we'll go over three beginner-friendly exercises you can do with the TRX to target your legs, back, and triceps.

1. Squats:

• Start with the handles close together and your feet shoulder-width apart.

• Squat down as if you're sitting in a chair, keeping your knees over your toes.

• Use your arms for assistance as needed, but gradually try to rely less on them.

• Aim for 10-20 repetitions and 2-3 sets.

2. Rows:

• Move your feet closer together and extend your arms straight out in front of you.

• Lean back slowly, keeping your core engaged and hips stable.

• Pull the handles towards your chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together.

• Experiment with different foot positions to adjust the difficulty.

• Do 10-20 repetitions for 2-3 sets.

3. Tricep Extensions (aka "Wings"):

• Face away from the TRX and grab both handles with your hands near your shoulders.

• Walk out as far as you can while maintaining control.

• Step back slightly and raise your hands overhead.

• Bend your elbows, bringing your wrists behind your head, and then push back up to extend your arms.

• Keep your core engaged and hips stable throughout the movement.

• Perform 10-20 repetitions for 2-3 sets.

Bonus Tip:

• Remember to warm up before your workout and cool down afterwards.

• Start with lighter weights or shorter sets if you're new to TRX training.

• Listen to your body and take breaks when needed.

With these exercises and a little dedication, you can use the TRX to build strength, improve your fitness, and achieve your workout goals!
