Fitness Anywhere TRX Suspension Trainer – In For Review
The trx suspension trainer was created by a navy seal out of necessity. In order for the seals to maintain top physical shape they needed a physical training system that was lightweight and portable, since they could be anywhere in the world at any given time.
Hence, the trx suspension trainer was born. Fitness anywhere then developed the trx suspension trainer and has been in business for seven years.

The trx suspension trainer is in for initial review. What follows is my initial assessment.
The trx suspension trainer was recommended to me by my physical therapist a few months ago to help eliminate pain and discomfort and strengthen as well. I have had pain and discomfort in the following areas for several years:
-lower left back and hip
-right elbow/tendinitis
-left side of neck and trapezius
The trx suspension trainer is not only good for resistance training but for stretching as well. I have found the stretching to be an invaluable component of the trx as it has already helped relieve discomfort in the 3 areas mentioned above.
The trx suspension trainer seems to offer an inexhaustible supply of resistance moves and exercises ranging from equate to planks to presses. And you can setup the trx virtually anywhere there is a door. I’ve used tthe trx on vacation and in my home office.
The trx suspension trainer costs $199 plus shipping. However, if you have a gym or physical therapist you might be able to get it at a discount and pay no shipping.
