TRX bands rely on body weight exercises that not only increase muscular strength and endurance but also flexibility, balance and core strengthening. Here are a few of the amazing benefits to using suspension training.
On The Go – Similar to traditional resistance band training sets, TRX bands are great to take on the road and can easily be packed in suitcases or bags. They may fit in a small package but they carry a hefty punch for building muscle.

The lack of stress placed on the body’s joints and the amount of control you have make TRX training safe and ideal for all.
