Fitness Anywhere® Responds to Industry-Wide Demand, Unveiling
Anchoring Solutions for Innovative TRX® Suspension Trainer®
Launch of Versatile Anchoring Systems Proves Timely, As More Health Clubs and
Athletic Training Centers Realize the Significant Potential of Suspension Training™
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 25, 2008 - Fitness Anywhere, Inc., the company responsible for
pioneering Suspension Training™ and establishing it as arguably the most practical and
effective functional fitness method available today, has unveiled a line of versatile anchoring
solutions for its popular line of TRX® Suspension Trainer® products.
The launch of the anchoring systems comes at a perfect time, as more athletic training facilities
and mainstream health clubs are creating dedicated functional training spaces and want to
implement personal and group fitness applications based on the TRX® Suspension Trainer®.
"While finding a place to hang up a single TRX is easy, we were getting a lot of requests to
create a solution for training facilities who want to use the TRX for both small and large group
fitness applications," said Randy Hetrick, Founder and President of Fitness Anywhere, Inc.
"With our new commercial anchoring solutions, trainers and clubs can now maximize the
potential of Suspension Training."
Underscoring the growth of Suspension Training™ as a highly-effective group training
alternative is TRX® BodyWeb, the latest group training attraction offered by Crunch to its
members. BodyWeb was developed through a collaboration between Fitness Anywhere® and
the exercise innovators at Crunch and has been receiving rave reviews from Crunch members.
"Crunch is known for its innovative and unique programming and the BodyWeb class with TRX
is no exception," said Donna Cyrus, Senior Vice President of Programming for Crunch. "We see
Suspension Training as one of the biggest trends in fitness right now as members are looking
for new ways to challenge themselves during their workouts. With Fitness Anywhere's
anchoring options, we're able to roll-out the successful BodyWeb class to gyms in all of our
markets."
Following is a breakdown of these anchoring solutions now available and on display at the
upcoming IHRSA show in San Diego:

modular wall-mounted system is ideal for group training applications. The unit extends 30-
inches from the wall, allowing for maximum range of motion in performing the myriad of
exercises available with the TRX® Suspension Trainer®. Multiple units can be mounted
adjacent to one another, creating a continuous training station for as many users as the desired
span of wall will allow. The TRX® MultiMount® may also serve as a pull-up station, a mount for
heavy bags and provides overhead storage for up to four Swiss Balls per section.
TRX® X-mount® - Designed to support both individual and small group training applications,
the TRX® X-Mount® allows for the most-efficient attachment of the TRX® Suspension Trainer®
when mounted to walls or overhead beams. Anchors 1-2 TRXs when mounted to concrete
walls or vertical studs; and 1-4 TRXs when mounted to overhead beams or concrete roofs.
TRX® Suspension Frame®- The optimal solution for commercial fitness environments and
elite training facilities, the TRX® Suspension Frame® is designed with group training classes in
mind. The modular truss system allows for a lateral width ranging from 10 ft. to 30 ft. depending
on the number of truss extensions employed, accommodating 10-24 users simultaneously. The
Suspension Frame® creates a dedicated functional training zone ideal for TRX® Group Fitness
classes and which also supports multi-user pull-up stations, Bosu integration, resistance band
attachments, Swiss ball and heavy ball training and other great functional fitness tools.
About the TRX® Suspension Trainer®
The TRX® is an adjustable training harness whose patented design is constructed of soft
industrial strength nylon webbing that is non-elastic. Users leverage gravity and their own
bodyweight to create the desired amount of resistance in any exercise. As users improve their
strength-to-weight ratio they can choose from hundreds of all-body exercises and simply adjust
their body position to make each movement more challenging.
