TRX Leg Circuit

20121003-231420.jpg

Warmup
20 Jumping Jacks
10 Squat Jacks
30 seconds High Knees Running in Place
30 seconds Mountain Climbers

Circuit 1
20 In and Out Squats: Holding the TRX straps tight and standing back in a squat position, squat with feet close together. Come up, step right foot to the side and squat wide. Step back to the narrow-feet position, squat, and come up. Step left foot to the side and squat wide. That’s one rep – yes, just one.
16 one-legged squats on each leg
16 Jump Squats
20 Sumo Squats: Feet wide apart, angled at 45 degrees out, as you go straight down and up – squeezing the glutes and inner thighs as you come up slowly.
16 Sumo Jump Squats: Same as the Sumo position, but quickly jump up and down, landing softly on the feet
16 TRX Lunges (or reverse lunges with one foot on a bench) and Pushups on each leg: Put one foot in the TRX strap and turn away from the strap, lunging down with the foot suspended. After 16 reps, come down to the floor and do 16 wide-grip pushups.

Cardio Burst
10 Burpees
20 Jumping Jacks
10 Squat Jacks

Circuit 2
Lunge Drill: 20 lunges with the right foot forward, 20 second hold at the bottom, followed by 16 lunge-kicks. Repeat on the left side.
20 Hip Hinge/Heel Lifts: Start with right foot planted on the floor, left leg back and toe pointed and off the floor. Slowly hinge at the hip, chest coming down as your left leg lifts; slowly hinge back down, feeling the hamstrings as you would in a deadlift. Do 20 reps, then hold forward in the hinge position as you bend the left leg to 90 degrees and push the heels up to the ceiling for 16 reps. Repeat on the left leg.
20 TRX Hamstring Curls

Cardio Burst
30 seconds Mountain Climbers
30 seconds High Knees

What Is TRX Suspension Training?

The TRX Suspension Trainer is a type of training that uses your own body weight and gravity, to build strength, balance, coordination, flexibility, core and joint stability, all while preventing injuries. You can minimize your training time by working your whole entire body switching from one exercise to the next in just seconds.

Do you know what the best part is? Every exercise you have to engage your core. Now you may think that your core is just your abdominals, however it is more than that! Your core includes the pelvis, abs, back and chest muscles. It is this core that offers your body stability, balance and flexibility. Everything you do in your life starts with your core, whether it is bending over to pick up the pen you dropped on the floor, washing your car, playing basketball with your kids, or participating in an Ironman.A strong and stable core is important to help prevent injuries, not just in your low back but in your entire body. Just think of how developing good core strength and stability will only enhance your performance and way of life!

The TRX Suspension Trainer:

  • Delivers a fast, effective total-body workout
  • Helps build a rock-solid core
  • Increases muscular endurance
  • Benefits people of all fitness levels (pro athletes to seniors)
  • Can be set-up anywhere (gym, home, hotel or outside)

Used by Trainers, Athletes and the U.S. Military

Thousands of people at all fitness levels now train on the TRX: From everyday people who just want to feel and look their best to some of the world’s most elite athletes. The TRX is used routinely by all four branches of the military, and can be found in the locker rooms of:

  • Major League Baseball teams
  • National League Baseball teams
  • UFC fighters
  • Olympic-level cyclists, swimmers & runners
