I've been working with a personal trainer over the last 7 weeks and she's had us work a couple times on the TRX straps. I LOVE IT. Well, I don't love it while I'm doing it, but they are great exercise that use body weight to work the whole body. You can make it easier or harder just on the position of your body.
It's been really great with the small group of ours as I am fairly fit, two are 'getting there' (but are quite a bit older) and one is really unfit. We can all do the same exercise and the same number of reps and get a bang up workout as we just vary the angle of the body - challenging ourselves more and more.
Anyway... I'm now intrigued.
My gym offers TRX classes, but it's $120 for 6 sessions (6 weeks). Worth it or not? I've been doing bodypump, but I've gotten a couple of injuries from it and I am thinking mixing it up a bit might be good - some free weights/ or class and then this.
OR, I could just buy the system and do it myself at home.... though I know myself. I'm terrible about working out on my own. Like REALLLLLY terrible.
For now, I've just done exercises with the PT, but have any of you taken the class? Thoughts?
