Is the gym packed and no equipment free? Are you short on time and want a quick all over body blast? Perhaps you just want to try something new? Have you ever used a TRX suspension trainer? Whether you have or haven’t, then here’s a cheeky little whole-body TRX workout for you to have a go at.
The Workout:
Repeat all exercises (1 set) 3 times. 90 seconds rest between each set.
- Squat jumps x 10.
- Rows x 10. The more horizontal the body, the harder the movement. If you want to make it harder still, try single arm rows!
- Pistol squat x 10 each leg. We have options here too! To make it easier-lower to a box or bench. To make it harder- lower to ground. Over time reduce the amount you are using the TRX for support.
- Plank with knee tucks x 10. To make it harder- add a press up!
- Tricep press x 10.
- Hamstring curl x 10. If the curl itself is too much for you, do a glute bridge instead.
- Clutch curl/bicep curl x 10
- Lunge x 10 each leg. Place the back foot in the stirrup, lunge down on the front leg, knee drive the back leg as you come up to the start position.
Ensure the TRX is fully secured before starting the workout. I completed 1 set in about 6 minutes doing all the harder variations. So, 3 rounds will be about 20 minutes. Focus on form rather than rushing through. Obviously, you are welcome to do more than 3 rounds. Here’s another 20-minute workout for you to try if you are short on time.
Play hard. Train hard.
