“When they told me it was invented by a Navy SEAL, I knew it would be cool— It's just your body weight working against gravity, so you won't get injured. Now my wife uses one at home, and I'm addicted,”

“ I have been using the TRX Fitness Anywhere system for a few weeks and in just that short time I have felt a significant difference in the way my body feels. I am able to incorporate the TRX Core Strength training with my workouts that I am doing with my teammates. In the 12 years that I have been playing professional football, I have seen many different approaches to strength training. The TRX Fitness Anywhere gives me an advantage that I feel will help extend my career. By using just my body weight for the exercises, it doesn't take a toll on my joints. They get enough abuse on the field when I play. With the TRX I can train at an intense level, even when my joints are sore....”

“ This system is ruthless. It definitely hits everything you need to work on, using functional body weight exercises to do it. I am carrying more weight than most people and these movements have done a helluva lot for stabilization and endurance...”

“I like the product so much its an integral part of my training. The main advantage of the TRX is the versatility and the way it can do so much at once, from core to balance to control to dynamic to strength to stamina.
I describe it to people as a combination of pilates, core strength work, cable workout, and body weight exercises all in one. I hang it from a timber joist in my garage, meaning I can get a conditioning workout by walking out of my back door - no traveling to get to a gym with a load of equipment, which may not be as good anyway...”

“As an NBA Strength Coach, I am always looking for training tools that will keep my athletes physically able to compete at their highest level all season long. The TRX allows our players to maintain much of their routine even when we're on the road. It's a great compliment to any training facility..”

“The TRX is one of the most unique training tools I've seen in a long time. It incorporates pure strength movements along with some of the best and most efficient core exercises... It allows us to effectively train more athletes in a shorter period of time, helping maximize the time we have with them. And, this enables us as a coaching staff to better prepare our athletes for competition. I would recommend the TRX for every strength coach, trainer and ATC out there. It takes body weight training to a completely different level.”

“The TRX is my find of the year. I have been using the TRX with all my clients, including my elite NFL and professional athletes, and they are all loving the system.
It is challenging, functional, fun, and appropriate for all levels. Our entire personal training and Pilates staff loves the TRX and they are getting great feedback from our clients. The TRX delivers and will be a tool that both you and your client will absolutely love.”

“TRX Suspension Training is the biggest part of my own personal workouts. It has added so much to our
functional training paradigm; the tool itself and a pendulum training principle has allowed a large number of new
innovative exercises to be created which gives me new ways to challenge the body and add variety for my athletes.
We have implemented TRX training with our adult clients to overload their bodies and optimize muscle activation and
metabolic cost with a slow and low impact exercise methodology. We have 9 power racks in our facility each with a
dedicated TRX and it is part of all workouts we fulfill. We do have the 230+ lb athletes working out and the
TRX systems hold up very well.
Experience the joy of Suspension Training yourself and with your clients - the more you use it the more intuitive
it gets, I would anticipate you would end up modifying existing exercises and create some others during your hands
on work with the TRX system

“The TRX is absolutely the best way to utilize body weight for strength and mobility training. It is one of the most convenient and practical uses of space for any travel or home training program...”

“I am running a successful free-lance personal training business in Chelsea , London and weight loss/holistic retreats in Europe. The TRX is the first portable and complete exercise system I have ever come across. It is a truly functional training tool. Your body is worked in all three planes of motion, your stabilizers and core are always switched on and strengthened and all movement patterns are used. The exercises range from static/isometric posture exercises to dynamic power moves for the more advanced athlete.
I use it with every client of mine from the older housewives to the ultra fit. The brilliance behind TRX is simple: the difficulty level can be adjusted to where you place your body. The eccentric movements are worked fully unlike with free weights. Since I spend my day cycling to visit my clients, I do not want to carry anything heavy. The TRX is light and takes virtually no space in my backpack. I've used it over doors in my clients homes, hotel room doors and over goal posts and trees outside. When I pack for our retreats, I can easily take 5-10 TRXs in my suitcase for our participants and not even pay a penny for the extra luggage! That can't be done with any other cumbersome equipment.
Free weights, cables and stability balls are all excellent tools, but the TRX has challenged my muscles from a completely new “angle” that I have not felt before. My fitness will always keep improving with the TRX because there are over 300 exercises and each can be progressed as may yours to a fitter body faster ”

"Having been in the fitness & rehabilitation industry for over 17 years, I am always looking for new, safe, effective, yet innovative ways to train myself & my clients. So you can imagine my delight when I discovered the TRX Fitness Anywhere. What I love about the TRX is that it challenges EVERYONE....from athletes & firemen who are more advanced and want to work more explosively or in a sports-specific manner, to post-rehabilitative clients needing to work on asymmetrical weaknesses and building general strength.
NOTHING has changed the shape of my body more, in less time than the TRX Fitness Anywhere. The added bonus, now my clients have no more excuses not to work out because they are "too busy" to go to a gym.....the TRX Fitness Anywhere is literally a gym in a bag & it comes to you. It can be used anywhere!!! I consider this to be an ESSENTIAL piece of equipment."

“I am a personal fitness trainer and sport yoga instructor and have been using the TRX for a little over a month now and love it! I train a few of my clients on it and they feel how challenging it is compared to traditionally weight training. I am a advocate of doing body weight exercises and this adds a whole dimension to the world of fitness. I would love to do more with the TRX and hope to get more clients turned onto it! It's a great way to train the body! This is my favorite exercise tool right now and my muscles love it!”

“The TRX's are doing great, the men like them and have deployed twice with them. They are doing what our CSM wanted, helping us maintain fitness in the field and giving us other options when home for PT. ”

“It was a life saver over seas where we didn't have anything but push-ups. I just hung the
system from a tree. To me having the capability to work my shoulders and legs was key and I could get
in a little cardio in as well if I cut down on rest periods between sets. I dig the system and take it
with me anytime I travel whether for work or on my own.”

“The TRX Force Training kit is an amazing tool that enforces functional fitness, a key component to combat readiness. In today's fight, the loads carried by Marines, requires a level of fitness that can't be achieved by concentrating exclusively on endurance, or strength training. I have used this system in the Iraq, and in the rear. It has provides a quick and effective workout. The TRX Force training kit has been a god send.”

“The TRX suspension system is the best training tool I have found in a long time. It is effective, functional and easy to use. At "The Balance Workout" we condition fitness beginners up to the elite professional athlete. The TRX is the only tool that I can use with everyone regardless of age or physical condition.
We use the system in all of our classes ranging from women’s functional fitness to tri-athlete strength and core training to high school sports conditioning. The summer months add a special bonus with outdoor TRX. The system is simple to hook around the nearest tree or fence.
The newest utilization has been including the TRX in our Marin Baby Boot Camp classes. Our instructors have been using the system with pre and post-natal mothers. They love it and many buy them to bring home to their husbands!...”

“The group TRX classes have been the perfect addition to our self defense and fitness school. It has made it possible to have group strength training without the loss of space or the major expense of equipment.

Many thanks to the whole team at Fitness Anywhere for getting us started and their on-going support.”

“I LOVE the TRX!!! And so do all of the trainers at my gym!! I have had many people ask me what it is that I am using. It is funny. People will just stop and watch me for the longest time while I am working out on the TRX. They finally get up the nerve to ask me about it... I am a former Olympic swimmer (Back in the dark ages. Ha) The TRX has done more for me than all the other things I have been doing at this big gym. I have two trainers. They have both ordered the TRX. Thank you so very much!!! Hey Kids, Yes, I just ordered ANOTHER TRX. You all are making me poor! Ha Ha. That's okay. This is how much I believe in your product. ”

“I am a 23 year old female who doesn't consider herself to be a religious "gym-go-er." I often find myself
occupied with work and too tired to go to the gym on a continuous basis. When I do go however, I rarely take
classes, but rather ride the bike and do individual workouts on the ball and free-weights. I tell you this because
I want to show how I am an average "Jane."
I watched the first week of the TRX BodyWeb class at Crunch Fitness and immediately knew I wanted to try the work out.
I joined the following week and am now a steady-lover of the class and the whole concept of the TRX system. The class
is NO JOKE, but I have seen SIGNIFICANT changes in my body within 3 weeks (without additional days in working out).
I've become leaner, stronger, and am actually enjoying working out again.
Thanks for introducing such an effective and innovate way to working out!

"Since my purchase, I've become a true believer in the effectiveness of the TRX.
I've used nothing else for my upper body workouts, and am planning on eliminating weights
from my lower body workouts. The only reason that I still go to my gym is for the friendly
faces and the floor space - good thing I get a good rate there!"

“This is such a simple idea and one great product. It can be used just like a swiss ball and is easier to travel with than a ball - no pumping required. The TRX System is essential for those who focus on golf-specific functional fitness, stability training, and core development.”

“The TRX has been the most effective, safe, convenient and economical product that I have ever used for my students.
Rather than isolating/centering on one or two muscles as you would with dumbbells, the TRX System triggers multiple muscle groups particularly the core muscles, during every exercise routine. All of my students were astonished at how their whole body was utilized during the routine, especially the effects the next day. They feel muscles that they never felt before.
It is safer than heavy weights because it allows you to use your own body weight. Everyone knows that using your own body weight is the best, and it is also the safest. Unlike weights you can use the TRX system everyday because you are using your own body weight just as a gymnast would.
Also, it is convenient because the TRX is light and can be easily utilized in even the smallest spaces. Essentially it can be used anywhere and it simply complements your own body as the workout machine. There is no need for taking up a lot of space with fancy equipment. Because of its versatility, you can take it with you when you travel or even if you want to move your workout routine outdoors!
Finally, the TRX is a fraction of the cost you would spend for a gym membership or gym equipment.
The TRX is a fantastic product for golfers in particular because it creates muscles that are fast and lean not bulky and slow.”

"My business concentrates strictly working with the golf community and after seeing the TRX at the Titleist World Golf Fitness Summit, I knew that I could incorporate it with my clients. It's not often you can find a system that is apparently so simple and affordable yet able to train many complex movement patterns. Typically you see equipment that is very costly and complex that only train very simple movements. I have used the TRX Golf Workout with clients in their teens to those in their 70's with no hesitation as to its effectiveness or safety and the feedback has been consistently positive. The movements are patterned specific to the golf swing and setup along with the added benefit of a demanding core workout. Add to that the ease of use and setup, and the TRX is the best training value available."

“If you can do it without any equipment, then by all means do it. This was our answer to many products trying to take advantage of the growing fitness and bodyweight only market. We can't say the same about TRX. This light piece of equipment makes many useful and even necessary bodyweight exercises possible to perform. An amateur to professional, weekend warrior to the master athlete can benefit from a variety, convenience and efficiency that training with TRX offers. We are proud to lend our endorsement to such a useful product.”
