Okay, so I didn't get 50/50. I was fatigued from a shoulder workout earlier and heavy clean-presses but no excuses I will do the 50/50 next time. I am content with 40/41. Whoa, is this thing a lot harder than it looks!

Speed Up Your Workout

Be quick but don't hurry.

Sample Workout: 31-Day Fitness Challenge

Fitness Anywhere — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 16:25:50 GMT

It looks like everyone was ready for a challenge to start the Autumn off the right way. What a great start for everyone. Now the big question... How do I improve my score? If you are new to Suspension Training, any of our exisiting DVD programs will certainly be a great place to start. Everything from the TRX Essentials: Strength all the way up to the Military Program, these will improve your performance.

So you've already been doing these programs and are looking for an additional edge? Here are a few ideas...

Take the test and cycle through it repetetively. As you improve, increase the work period by 10 second increments or reduce the rest by 10 second increments. Increasing the work periods will help you build the local muscular endurance so that 30 seconds is a cake walk. Reducing rest will challenge and improve your conditioning.

Some alternate exercises that you can use that will supplement the test exercises and keep your workouts interesting are below:

TRX Atomic Pushup

TRX Deep Chest Press
TRX Standing Chest Fly
TRX Suspended Oblique Crunch
TRX Suspended Pike
TRX Supine Leg Raise
TRX Triceps Press

TRX Suspended Lunge

TRX Single Leg Squat
TRX Balance Lunge
TRX Crossing Balance Lunge
TRX Crossing Suspended Lunge

TRX Low Row

TRX Single Arm Row
TRX Biceps Curl or Clutch
TRX Low Deltoid Fly
Pull Ups

TRX Hip Press

TRX Single Leg Hip Press
TRX Hamstring Curl
TRX Standing Back Extension

TRX Postural Squat

TRX Single Arm Postural Squat
TRX Shoulder Series "I", "Y", "T", "W"
TRX Single Leg Squat
Body Weight Squats
Overhead Squat (using dowel)

Finally an interesting way to sequence through these movements that would be very relevant to the test is to perform 3 to 4 circuits of the test as is described above. In the first circuit use the required exercises. If subsequent circuits replace the test exercises with the alternate exercises listed above. A 4 circuit example would be as follows:

Circuit #1

TRX Atomic Pushup
TRX Suspended Lunge
TRX Low Row
TRX Hip Press
TRX Postural Squat

Circuit #2

TRX Deep Chest Press
TRX Single Leg Squat
TRX Single Arm Row
TRX Single Leg Hip Press
TRX Single Arm Postural Squat

Circuit #3

TRX Suspended Oblique Crunch
TRX Balance Lunge
TRX Biceps Clutch
TRX Hamstring Curl
TRX Shoulder Series "I", "Y", "T", "W"

Circuit #4

TRX Standing Chest Fly
TRX Crossing Suspended Lunge
Pull Ups
TRX Standing Back Extension
Overhead Squat (using dowel)

I hope that this helps everyone and gives you an idea how you might train this month to improve your scores.

Good luck and have a great and productive month!
