 ”What is the BEST Portable Gym available for the money?”

Vs.   

That is one of the most common email questions I receive.  Here is my answer…

I own the 2 most popular suspension training gyms on the market…

1 TRX Suspension Trainer Gym in a Bag

2 Lifeline Jungle Gym

The following Video contains scenes from my “Lab” where I test equipment like this on a daily basis.

Here’s my opinion on how they stack up against each other…

Here’s who wins in a cage match between the TRX Gym in a Bag vs. Lifeline Jungle Gym…

• Durability…TRX Gym in a Bag
  
• Multiple Anchoring Capability (doors, bars, trees, anything you can “loop”)….TRX Gym in a Bag
• Ease of Adjustability…TRX Gym in a Bag
• Strength of Straps…TRX Gym in a Bag
• Handle Comfort…TRX Gym in a Bag
• Overall “Feeling” of Safety…TRX Gym in a Bag
• Overall Ruggedness / Ability to Handle the “Beatdown”…TRX Gym in a Bag
• Price…Jungle Gym

*Price is the ONLY comparison where the Lifeline Jungle Gym beats the TRX Suspension Trainer Gym in a Bag.

Which car is better in performance (and which would you rather drive)…a Chevette or a Audi R8?

  Vs. 

When you decide on the Audi R8…
I recommend the TRX Gym in a Bag “Home Training Bundle”

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)

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.
