It can be\u00a0one of the most intimidating\u00a0<\/strong>tools in a gym<\/strong><\/a>. However, once you get a hold of it, the\u00a0TRX can help you improve your fitness level<\/strong>. TRX stands for\u00a0T<\/strong>otal-body\u00a0R<\/strong>esistance eX<\/strong>ercise<\/a>, and it’s a functional fitness dream \u2014 pretty much\u00a0any functional move you can do without a TRX can be made more challenging using it.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philip Irgang, our personal trainer from <\/strong>EVO Lucerne<\/a>, <\/strong>designed a TRX workout that targets mostly your upper body<\/strong>. However, due to the unstable nature of this fitness tool, it will work more than that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This TRX upper body workout <\/strong>consists of 5 exercises<\/strong>. Each should be performed for 90 seconds<\/strong>. Since these are low-impact exercises, rest when you feel like it, but aim for little to no rest during the 3 rounds<\/strong>. It should take you around 25 minutes<\/strong> to complete it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. TRX Row<\/li>
  2. TRX Fly Reverse <\/li>
  3. TRX A-Fly Reverse <\/li>
  4. TRX Triceps Press <\/li>
  5. TRX Biceps Curls <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    When you’re ready, let’s do this! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

      WORKING OUT FROM HOME? NO PROBLEM.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      TRX is a portable tool that allows you to exercise anywhere. In case you don’t own one, you can try to mimic the moves with a resistance band. We must warn you however that the experience will be totally different. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      • Firmly grab the TRX handles with both hands and lean back until the straps are tense and the body is at an oblique angle to the ground.<\/li>
      • Arms should be stretched, and the body should be planking with the knees slightly bent.<\/li>
      • With your palms facing inwards, begin pulling, allowing the body to move up towards the handles. <\/li>
      • In a controlled descent, reduce the muscle tension of the arms and stretch them once again until you find the original position.<\/li>
      • Strive to maintain the core as stable as possible, using shoulder blades and spine for this effect.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
