Dips TRX-style

Fitness Anywhere — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 15:05:00 GMT

If you thought you needed a dip station at the local park or gym to incorporate this classic bodyweight exercise into your training, then Fraser Quelch, FA’s Head Coach and Director of Training and Development, would like you to think again.

This video shows an easy way to do dips on the TRX. TRX dips build tremendous tricep and pectoral strength like normal dips, but they also improve shoulder stability and mobility at the same time. This fundamental move is suitable for all levels of fitness, but as Fraser Quelch demonstrates in this video, the TRX Dip can be made more difficult with a few simple adjustments in body position. So click below and get ready to burn!

TRX Training in Afghanistan

Ken — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:59:00 GMT

I recently received photos from one of our US soldiers in Afghanistan.

"I've been taking the TRX with me lately when I go work with my Afghan National Army Military Police counterparts. It took them a little while to get the hang of it, but once they did I couldn't get them to stop! The older guy in one of the photos insisted on doing the chest press in full battle rattle, but then couldn't push himself back up. Apparently he found it's harder than it looks!"

The exercises definitely can be harder than they look, but with a quick adjustment of angle they are all doable.
