What is trx training
TRX's full name is Total Body Resistance Exercise. It was developed by Randy Hetrick, a former member of the U.S. Navy SEAL Team, with the purpose of allowing military personnel to exercise their physique anytime and anywhere.
The function of TRX: through self-strength and suspension training, it can improve the strength, stability and flexibility of the whole body muscles. It is especially effective for core muscle groups, so it is favored by professional athletes. In addition, unlike general weight training, TRX only uses your own weight, so it is basically suitable for people of all genders and ages.
TRX uses your own weight as resistance and allows you to adjust the length of the nylon strap to change the angle of muscle training to train muscle strength, stability and flexibility. The application of TRX is highly flexible. You can basically use TRX to train all muscles in the body. As long as you can use your creativity or search for information online, you can train at home without leaving home!
What are the trx trainings
1. TRX triceps extension
Adjust the straps to shoulder height. Hold the handle upright, tilt your body and straighten your arms. Use the TRX to support your body weight and straighten your hips and knees. This will be your starting position. Bend your elbows and slowly lower your body so that only your forearms move and your humerus (upper arm) remains fixed. When your elbows approach 90 degrees, pause. Extend your elbows back to the starting position to complete the movement.
2. Suspended forward tilt
Adjust the pulley so that the handle is at the appropriate height, below your waist. Starting position: Stand and grasp the handles, tilt your body toward the pulley, and assume an inclined push-up position. Keeping your arms straight, lean further toward the suspended pulley, bringing your body closer to the ground, extending your shoulders and raising your arms above your head. Keep your spine neutral and the rest of your body straight, with your shoulders being the only joint moving.When the movement reaches its maximum, pause and return to the starting position.
3. Suspended Split Squat
Hang the belt so that the handle is 45 to 76 centimeters above the floor. Facing away from the equipment, place your back foot into the handle behind you. Keep your head facing forward, chest lifted, and knees slightly bent. This is the starting position of the movement. Bend your knees and hips to lower yourself toward the ground. Keep your weight on your heels and maintain good posture during the exercise. At the bottom of the movement, reverse the movement, extending your hips and knees back to the starting position.
