    Injury Prevention most rewarding aspect of TRX

    As a Police officer, and competitive athlete I've always struggled with injuries.  With over 30 broken bones, multiple surgeries and several concussions I'm very familiar with how my body reacts to trauma.  That said, I've noticed in the months that I've been using the TRX, a significant change in my bodies ability to resist injury.  Most notebly last night during a soccer game going knee on knee with an opponent, by rights I should have blown my knee but was able to walk it off and return to the game.  I've lost over 20 lbs, have increased strength and overall fitness, but the most satisfying thing to me remains my new ability to resist injury.  This will not only benefit my career, but lengthen it as well.

    Thank you FitnessAnywhere

    Wow Blueline, that's awesome!

    I love hearing stories like this, really describing and showing that the TRX really can make a change in people's lives physically, and perhaps even mentally. I know I myself feel alot more confident in my workouts since I began using the TRX in April, and losing 30 lbs of fat myself, and building up mostly muscle in my body, and I'm in better shape than I was in when I was 15!

    I'm glad to hear everything is going so well for you. Can't wait to hear more good news down the road. Keep using posted!

    Thanks,

    Justin

     Congrats on the weight loss and even better work on the development of the stabilizers and the functional ability to do what you want to when you want to do it. Since using the TRX I have noticed improved parity of power in both sides of my body and I am able to deal more effectively in unbalanced situations. I have dislocated both kneecaps in excess of 50 times each. Since beginning to use the TRX 3 years ago and developing proprioception of my legs independently I have noticed an increase in muscle mass stability and most of important of all a decrease in injuries. I play rugby so I figure if it works there it most probably works everywhere.
