Hello drbka, may I cite your Chief Executive: "Yes you can". You  don´t need a special "couch potatoe DVD". Go to the video library and Fraser´s Blog instead and take a look at the setup and use clinics and the "changing resistance" and the "offset foot position" videos. There are many ...

Hey Justin, you speak German, awesome! Would have been a lot easier to describe the plank variation to you, if I had known that beforehand. :-) And great to see that I´m not the only "TRX-Ambassador" in Germany. Greets Olaf

Hello Gregg, You should definitely include the suspended Lunge, side Lunge, crossover Lunge and the Golf Swing into your exercise regimen. I find it somewhat difficult to give advice on shoulder issues with just a few thousand miles and several time zones between us, so I´ll resist that Temptation, although I do such things for a ...

Hello Stu, I guess "bouncing" refers to some explosive or plyometric (i. e. a excentric muscle contraction immediately followed by a concentric contraction) movements shown in some of the videos. Whether these movements are appropriate or not depends on the goals you want to achieve. If you are training for sport- or ...

Hello Arthur, Both Variations of the Lunge are possible. If you´re doing the Suspended Lunge, your back is turned towards the anchor point and one of your feet is in the foot cradles (the TRX should be in the single handle mode for this exercise). Said foot moves backwards while you lower yourself and moves forward and upward when you ...

Hey Justin, you will find some related exercises on the healthy back DVD. A very simple, yet effective exercise to tackle this problem is the plank position. But you will need an overhead anchor point (plus a mirror), NOT a wall mount. Apply the pendulum principle and position yourself under the anchor. It should be roughly somewhere above your ...

Hello blancpain, Sounds like a good plan to me. Add swiss balls, kettlebells and Pilates or Yoga and offer your customers low tech, high Performance fitness solutions. Einstein once said: "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler". I think that´s exactly how physical exercise should be: simple but not ...

Hi MaxKon. Sorry, I didn´t take a look at the "my discussions" section for a while. So, one and a half months have elapsed; hows your butterfly movement doin´?  I´m curious whethter it helped and found a place in your exercise regimen. This exercise is one of the exercises I like to practise with my clients who ...

That´s an interesting question, thanx for asking. For the last three years I´ve been working full-time plus studying in my spare-time. So I gained a lot of weight and was pretty out of shape (and desperate) by the end of the second year. So I bought the TRX because I had to squeeze as much workout in as little time as possible. It ...

Hello gcsmedic, I think the essentials bundle should be fine for you. You are already doing some strength and endurance training, so you should benefit from some new input on the combination of these two plus some flexibility routines which might increase your readiness for the job. I own the Force Kit, wich focusses on strength, which is fine ...
