5 Benefits of TRX Training

Core Strength

IT’S “ALL CORE, ALL THE TIME”

Because the TRX provides instability you have to engage your core muscles in every exercise done with TRX. The core is more than your abs! The core includes pelvis, abs, back and chest muscles. It is the core that improves your body stability, balance and flexibility. Everything you do in your life connects with the core.

Increase Flexibility and Mobility

Life demands us to move freely through space, not within the confines of a machine or other restrictive motor patterns. Isolated exercises contradict the nature of how the body has evolved to move. Most traditional strength programs favor movement in the sagittal/front-to-back plane. This is a programming error that promotes one-dimensional motor patterns and the inability to move with equal effectiveness in any direction. In some cases, this yields joint dysfunction, decreasing the range of motion throughout adulthood while increasing the risk of injury. If not designed properly, the muscle-oriented approach may lead to muscle imbalance, poorly developed launching forms and motor inadequacy in untrained planes of motion.

Weight Loss

Unlike almost any other training system available, TRX Suspension Training challenges your entire body in all planes of motion creating a huge metabolic effect and helps you build lean, toned muscle. Resistance training really helps weight loss: the muscles you build will burn more calories between workouts. 10 lbs of muscle will burn 50 calories throughout a day while 10 lbs of fat burn only 20 calories. This is at rest – simply having these muscles burns calories! Studies have shown that those who incorporate some resistance training into their workout routine lose 35 to 45% more weight than others who just perform cardio exercises. Combined with a healthy diet, TRX offers great opportunities for weight loss. With adaptation, you can achieve long-term results and get that lean, toned body that you’ve been hoping for.

Full Body workout

You will get a Full Body workout, training your body for everyday movement by moving the body through all three planes of motion. This is functional training. This type of exercise enhances the nervous system’s ability to effectively coordinate movement at higher levels and build strong motor patterns, increase stabilization and functional muscle mass.

For all Levels

Whether your goal is to rehab an injury, increase general fitness or compete at an Olympic level, TRX Suspension Trainer can help you in doing so. This workout makes a great compliment for marathon training, cycling, and yoga.
