Fitness Anywhere Takes on TRX 40/40 Challenge

Fitness Anywhere — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:24:00 GMT

Since it was the TRX 40/40 Challenge, we at FA stepped up and strapped up to see how we all did! Here's our video!

While no one made it all the way to 40/40... we did get very close. Top person did 65/35 (which if he had stopped at 40 Atomic Push-Ups he probably would have killed the 40/40 :) )

Don't think that just because the month is over, the challenge is over. If you didn't hit 40/40 now is not the time to quit. Keep going! We want to see that video! If you need a little help building up to the 40/40, besure to stop by the 40/40 workout to get on the fast track.

Many people have been jumping on the TRX 40/40 Challenge. We want to take a moment and feature these ladies from Bootcamp RDFT in Portland, OR. As a group they decided to take on the challenge and have done pretty well (a couple of them are 5 months pregnant!)

Great job ladies!

Everyone, keep up the great work. We are working on a new challenge for July that will really get your lower body working!

If you haven't already, check out the TRX 40/40 Challenge.

And don't forget the workout routine to help you reach that 40/40 goal!

TRX 40/40 Atomic Push Up Alternatives

Is doing a regular push up a challenge for you? Or maybe you can do Atomic Push Ups until the cows come home?

Here are alternative atomic push ups that can help you build up the right muscle to be able to do it or challenge yourself to increase the dificulty. Of course you still have to be able to do an Atomic Push Up in order to qualify for the 40/40, but this should get you on your way!

Take the TRX 40/40 Challenge!

We have partnered with Todd Durkin of Fitness Quest 10 and Sean Croxton of Underground Wellness to bring you the TRX 40/40 Challenge! This challenge requires 40 Atomic Push Ups and 40 Low Rows. 10/10 is good, 20/20 puts you into the 25% bracket, 30/30 is a strong athlete, but 40/40 pushes you into the top 5%.

Participation is easy:

Review the video and rules of the challenge
Accept the challenge
Post your video of the challenge once completed

Are you ready to become one of the 5%?
