The word continues to spread about the benefits of Suspenison Training on the TRX. In this month's issue, Outside Magazine's "Lab Rat", Nick Heil, works out on the TRX with NBA All-Star Chauncey Billups. Under the guidance of the Nugget's S&C coach Steve Hess, Nick follows Billups through a cutting-edge workout that included a health dose of the TRX. Nick's verdict:

"The $150 TRX seems likely to become a fixture in my routine. I took one home--it bundles up into a small pouch--and it was a cinch, literally to set-up. Most of the exercises suggested in the training booklet were intuitive. It's about the most effective portable gym I've ever seen."
