    SUSPENSION TRAININGâ„¢ DVD ENABLES FITNESS PROS TO HARNESS INNOVATIVE FITNESS TREND INSPIRED IN NAVY SEAL TEAMS

    "Trainer Basics" DVD, Makes Learning and Implementing Suspension Training™ with Clients and Members of All Fitness Levels as Practical as the TRX® Suspension Trainer™ Itself

    SAN FRANCISCO, October 10, 2007—Fitness Anywhere has released its latest instructional DVD: "Trainer Basics, Volume 1", a 60 minute course, developed for fitness professionals. The DVD shows trainers the fundamentals of Suspension Training and how to adapt the various exercises for all client programs.

    "This DVD is a must for anyone looking into benefiting from the superb effects of Suspension Training," says Todd Durkin, 2-time Personal Trainer of the Year. "The TRX and this program will surely challenge your clients of all levels - beginning to advanced, including professional athletes. If you want to continually challenge your clients and get results, watch this DVD!"

    Suspension Training is a new category of functional exercise that enables users to utilize their bodyweight and gravity to create variable resistance and perform hundreds of groundbased exercises ranging from gentle rehabilitation to high-performance training. Suspension Training programs are applicable for individual, group training and boot camp settings and can be conducted virtually anywhere.

    "We've condensed our eight-hour CEU approved Suspension Trainer Course material into this DVD offering to meet the growing demand from certified trainers seeking instruction," says Fitness Anywhere's Director of Education, Fraser Quelch. "Now, we're able to conveniently provide step-by-step education on setup, use guidelines and exercise progressions for the entire body and utilize the TRX Suspension Trainer to its fullest potential."

    Suspension Training evolved in the military when former Navy SEAL squadron commander and CEO of Fitness Anywhere, Randy Hetrick created the TRX Suspension Trainer for maintaining peak physical condition while deployed in the most remote and resource deprived parts of the world. As Hetrick saw increasing enthusiasm among his friends both in uniform and out, it became clear that this new way of working out was not just a tool for military personnel, but a highly effective athletic training and mainstream fitness solution – all within a single training station.

    Since its introduction to the marketplace in 2006, the TRX Suspension Trainer is now used and trusted by trainers, coaches, athletes, physical therapists, and all branches of the military. Its popularity with teams in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and NCAA surges onward and it has quickly become a mainstay in top health clubs across the country. Already adopted by elite trainers such as Todd Durkin, Jonathan Ross, Justin Price and many more, the personal training community is embracing Suspension Training and further establishing it as a tried and true fitness method appropriate for practically everyone.
