The supine leg series focusing on the hamstrings is performed as a difficult superset (doing one exercise right after each other with a long 60 second rest only after all three exercises in the series are completed). Reps are kept the same for the arm and core series except for the progression of the TRX Suspended Crunch to Body Saw. Start this progression on your forearms for the first set, stabilizing the body and raising the hips. Rock your body back and during the forward motion bring your knees under body into a suspended crunch. Try the second set from your hands in a push-up position.

The TRX Single Leg Chest Press uses a more demanding leg position bringing the standing leg forward rather than out to the side. The TRX Side Plank adds a pike to each swing by bringing the hips up as high as possible on each side. The Suspended Crunch element of the TRX Atomic Push-Up is replaced with a more advanced pike movement. The TRX Suspended Oblique Pike is combined with the Body Saw. Rock your body back and during the forward motion pike your hips up as high as possible to one side, keeping your legs straight.

For the Single Arm Power Pull really reach up as far as you can up the strap as you pull yourself towards the anchor point. To make this more difficult, have a partner mimic giving you a "high-5" at the top of the strap as a target to reach. Once you make contact, have them apply some pressure to your hand, pushing you downwards as you try to resist.
