The April 2009 issue of Men’s Health Magazine voted…

The Fitness Anywhere TRX Suspension Trainer:  BEST Total Body Fitness Tool for 2009.

I have been recommending the TRX Gym in a Bag
for over 6 months now and it is just simply an amazingly versatile
piece of gym equipment that you can do A LOT of different exercises
with.

The TRX Suspension Trainer Force Kit offers…

1 Heavy duty straps (easily adjustable up and down to increase/decrease leverage) and buckles
2 East to carry with you ANYWHERE
3 Easy to set up / attach to a door, bar, branch, fence, post…almost anything that will support your bodyweight.
4 Easy to use for change of exercises…flow from one to the next
5 Versatile to hit the entire body
6 Great for CORE workouts and exercises
7 Easily modified for different user levels
8 Simple progressions
9 Killer total body workouts in minutes
10 DVDs are well-designed with “meat only” content
11 Portable, laminated take with you exercise reference guide included
12 eliminates expensive home gyms

What is “Suspension Training” ?
Suspension training combines your bodyweight and gravity to deliver a
challenging workout.  Since the foot straps on the TRX are an added
bonus, many exercises that are normally done on the ground or from the
hands bring on a whole new dimension when your feet are in the straps.
Some of those exercises include:
-Mountain Climbers
-Abdominal Jacknives
-Abdominal Pikes
-Pushups
*all of these are taken to the next level because your feet are “suspended.”

Who Uses the TRX Gym in a Bag?  Many top professional athletes such as…
National Football League (NFL)
Drew Brees
Ladanian Tomlinson
Reggie Bush

Mixed Martial Arts (UFC)
George St. Pierre
Roger Huerta
Brandon Vera
Bas Rutten

As seen on the Biggest Loser!

I get asked all the time on what products to buy to use at home, traveling for work, on the road vacationing…all-around “portable” equipment.

The TRX Gym in a Bag by Fitness Anywhere is one of those tools.  I first purchased one in December in 2008.  I thought it was going to be a more expensive version of the Jungle Gym by LifeLine USA.  Man was that the WRONG assumption.

Here’s what the TRX Portable Gym has to offer and why it blows similar products out of the water:

1 Portability. All TRX Portable Gyms come with heavy duty mesh bag that keeps everything together and also
allows for easy packing in luggage or taking it to the gym.

2 Attachment. Via the carabiner provided OR purchasing the “door anchor.”  Both work fantastic.

3 Adjustability. Way simple and can be done in 2 different ways…through the attachment and/or the straps.

4 Durability. The nylon straps are reinforced multiple times and makes the TRX much more safe and gives you peace of mind.

5 Functionality. There are multiple exercises you can do with the TRX Portable Gym.
The COOLEST feature of the TRX is the FOOT STRAPS which instantly
doubles the number of exercises you can do.  Now you can do drills with
your hands OR your feet in contact with the TRX.

6 Progressions. The TRX allows you to transition from beginner to
advanced exercises very easily…most of the time by just
re-positioning your feet!  No more wasted set up time!

7  Instruction. Best of all the DVDs that are available from Fitness Anywhere deliver excellent progressions and tutorials on exercises that are straight to the point.

Most of you know that I teach A LOT of boot camp classes.  Because
of this I am always on the look out for new, innovative, simple to use
equipment that still helps deliver BEATDOWNS.  As soon as I received my
first TRX Portable Gym, I used it myself and I watched the two DVDS
that I ordered with it.

The next day I ordered FIVE (5) more TRXs because I KNEW that I had
just discovered another piece of equipment that my clients would love
to hate.

For those starting out, here’s what I recommend buying:

TRX Home Training Bundle

Includes:
TRX Professional   – club quality suspension trainer.  Their most popular product
TRX Door Anchor  – anchor your TRX to ANY sturdy door
TRX All Body Xpress:  Guide & DVD   – a total body workout in just 25 minutes
TRX Core Strength:  Guide & DVD   – killer core building workout
TRX Storage Bag  – lightweight, durable mesh bag with drawstring closure to carry your TRX with you.

I’m reviewing some serious tools to help you lose fat and get sexy in 2009.  Here’s a great compliment to kettlebells and kettlebell training that you’ll quickly learn to love to hate:

Tool #2 Gym Boss Timer.

The Gym Boss Timer is the greatest invention in the workout world yet!  It is the most evil, sinister little piece of electronic equipment that I have found.  Perfect for delivering beatdowns!

The Gym Boss Timer is a digital countdown timer that you can set both WORK and REST intervals to the second.  It also counts rounds or intervals for you so you never lose track of where you are.  It was originally designed for Tabata intervals which are :20 work / :10 rest.  You can do so much more with it…the possibilities and timing options are endless.

The Gym Boss Timer destroys its competition like Everlast and Ringside.  It’s small, has a clip on it for attachment to gym shorts or a watch and is only $19.99 compared to most timers that start at $120.  The Gym Boss Timer also blows away a wrist watch or a stop watch which neither actually count the rounds and most do not have the dual timer.

One last thing…I contacted Gary at Gym Boss to offer a couple of suggestions and he let me in on a little secret:  they have improved the bell to be LOUDER and also are
working on a digital timer for boot camp instructors that is bigger and
louder but comes in at a lower price point than their competitors.  For my boot camp crew, they will get to experience this first hand.  For the kids at home, you’ll have to plan a trip to the great state of Minnesota to experience it for yourself.  I love my world!

All the way around, the Gym Boss Timer rules!  Click here to buy yours.

It’s that time of year again.  Everyone is thinking about how fat and lazy they were in 2008.  You’ll wake up January 1st 2009, shower, look in the mirror and decide that it’s time to get your sorry ass in shape.  I don’t understand why people have to wait until the beginning of a new year to lose weight, get sexy and get in the best shape of their life.  It’s really a phenomenon.

Everything I am about to mention will NOT replace these two items…
1) ACCOUNTABILITY
2) BEING PUSHED by a personal trainer or workout partner

…that you will receive when you attend my Woodbury/St. Paul kettlebell classes or my RAD Boot Camp.  However, I want to help the kids at home find something that works for them…until they decide it’s time to suck it up and join Kinetic Edge.

Let’s review some serious tools to help you lose fat and get sexy in 2009:

Tool #1 Kettlebells.

I discovered kettlebell training in September 2003.  My body and my life transformed.  Kettlebell training accelerates fat loss and builds killer conditioning.  By now you’ve seen kettlebells and kettlebell training popping up all over the place.  There are a lot of dumb asses out there claiming to be kettlebell trainers like this one right here…

Friends, this is NOT what you do with a kettlebell.  Real kettlebellers don’t wear skin tight Under Armour shirts and “curls for the girls” is so 80s.  I can’t believe they allow this crap in stores.  Actually I can, because the marketers are very good at selling you LIES.  That is an entirely different topic that I am working on…that you will be able to access in a Free Special Report (very controversial) from me very soon.

Back to kettlebell training.  When you want to know the truth about Russian Kettlebell Training, click here.  Dragon Door was the pioneer on getting the word out in the United States about kettlebells.  Their kettlebells are still the highest quality you can find and their instructor training program is the best.

If kettlebell training is something you’re going to explore, I recommend…no,  I highly recommend…no, I demand that you pay (yes, INVEST) in at least a 1-hour private session or a workshop with a Russian Kettlebell Challenge Instructor (click here to find one near you)… or if you are in the Midwest, look me up directly in Woodbury/St. Paul Minnesota (click here for my smiling face )

I am taking on 3 new phone/email coaching clients this first quarter.
When you’re serious about seeing your toes again or getting back in
your skinny jeans, then and ONLY then, contact me here and we’ll talk.

Kettlebell technique.

Kettlebell technique is more difficult than it looks on YouTube.  Trust me, I’ve worked 834+ hours this year alone with all types of people who think they’ll waltz in and pick it up.  Wrong.  Get with an instructor.

Guys you’ll want to start with either

16kg or 20kg max weight regardless of what your ego is telling you.

Ladies you’ll want to start with either

8kg or 12kg.  I promise you’ll be able to lift them properly with strength after 1 or 2 sessions with an instructor.

Kettlebell techique is VERY difficult to learn from any video no matter how good it is.  Working one on one with an instructor will cut your learning curve down drastically.  Let me say this again… GET with a Russian Kettlebell Instructor…capiche?

I’ve gotten some more tools for you to explore in blog posts to come.
