TRX FORCE Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was in the military and the gym on base had a few sets of TRX's that you could use. I don't like lifting weights on a regular basis, every now and then is fine to gauge where you are at, but ultimately I feel body weight workouts will get you in better overall shape.

I added the TRX to my workout and noticed my stabilizer muscles were being heavily recruited and I thought I had trained them enough already. I was WRONG. The TRX system delivers its promise of being durable, portable and effective.

I used it a good bit and then when I wanted my own set I found out how expensive they were and started looking for alternatives.

I ended up with finding some nylon straps at my local Home Depot that are about 2" wide and can withstand up to 5,400 lbs of tension. I've used some stiff garden hose for handles, but I know people have used PVC pipe as well. I've made two sets; One with grommets placed 6" apart all down the webbing, and then another pair that are marked every 6" with a black line and you just wrap the remaining length around your anchor point. Both sets have the 6" sections numbered starting with '1' at the bottom grommet/line and increasing the numbers as you go up the length of webbing.

For attaching them to doors I found that using a carabiner wrapped in something soft (cloth, old wet suit material, etc.) and then tapped up are pretty decent and don't damage doors. The pair without grommets I just tie a knot in the end of the line, or wherever I need the knot, and close the door on it.

I haven't noticed anything wrong with the set with grommets, but I suspect that adding the grommets has reduced the tension resistance to a certain degree, thus the extra pair without the grommets.

A home made kit might run you $15-30 depending on your resources and scrounging ability

I was pleased with the system, but I can not see how they justify the prices. Also I can not find anything on their website saying where their product materials come from or where the manufacturing takes place. I would hope something developed by a Navy SEAL would try to keep as much of their product assembled and built by Americans. No offense to the rest of the world's nations of course.

TRX Suspension Trainer Professional Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It is well constructed. Heavy weight nylon webbing used throughout. I was really impressed with the quick length adjustment system. the prone/ supine leg exercises are surprisingly hard! Register your warranty online and you can download a free video that shows how to adjust the difficulty of several exercises.
I am not a paid reviewer so no extraordinary statements here. It is ring training. There are many options out there. The advantage of this system is the quick adjust ability, able to attach just about anywhere, and foot straps.

TRX Suspension Training Pro Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Okay, it seems very well made, but its just straps and handles!I'm glad I got it and like using it.I'd recommend it but when you realize that you paid all that for just...okay, I won't say it again!

The carrying bag it comes with is a little too small to conveniently get the TRX into.It can be done, but it wouldn't have hurt to make it a little bigger.

About Fitness Anywhere
Creator of the Suspension Training workout, Fitness Anywhere delivers world-class training products for serious athletes, fitness professionals, first responders, and the U.S. military. Fitness Anywhere owes its roots and ongoing drive to the U.S. Navy SEAL teams, which began developing innovative workouts out of necessity. Company founder Randy Hetrick and his SEAL teammates searched for ways to stay in peak physical condition while stashed away in missions in a variety of locations, from wharf-side warehouses to urban safehouses to ships and submarines. Hetrick used this experience to develop the prototype of the TRX Suspension Trainer. The original TRX was a training harness--a few lengths of parachute webbing hand-stitched together by boat repair tools. Almost immediately, Hetrick and his teammates put the TRX to use and created the first dozen exercises. In the weeks and months that followed, the breadth of original bodyweight exercises grew and the harness evolved, gradually becoming the complete field training system being offered today. Fitness Anywhere is headquartered in San Francisco.
