TRX Suspension Training

Discounted for Members

  • Level: All
  • Ages: 18+
  • Registration required
  • Limit 8 participants per class

The TRX Suspension Trainer is the original bodyweight-based training tool that builds strength, balance, flexibility, and core stability. Because every body movement is powered by the torso – the abs and back working together to support the spine during everyday activities – Suspension Training works to build that needed core strength. All our exercises create an element of instability that calls on your core to provide balance and coordination.
