TRX All-In-One Home Gym System – Complete Suspension Training Kit for Strength Training, HIIT & Full-Body Workouts at Home or Outdoors, Includes Indoor & Outdoor Anchors

This is a great training system. I bought this for travel when I can't go to my gym. There is almost no limit to the number of exercises you can do with this. The kit comes with a DVD of exercises. When you sign up online, they give you access to even more videos. You can use the videos to learn how to do the motions of exercises, and you can exercise with the videos. They give you reasonable amounts of time to do different motions and then time to swap to a new motion's setup. I setup my laptop in the hotel room so I could see the display while I was using the TRX. I can almost always hook it over the door to the room. Sometimes I use the bathroom door. My personal trainer has me use the pro/military grade version. The handles are slightly different, and the hardware is a little different. Nothing that affects your ability to exercise in the least bit. One point I'd make though, is that I am using TRX a couple times a month (at least) with my professional trainer. This is serious gear. It allows you to start where you are able to perform, and then adjust to harder exercises easily as you get stronger. I've seen my trainer use it with other clients in ways I can't imagine doing the motion - I just don't have the strength yet. But I hope to get there. This can work all the major muscle groups. Arms, legs, core. The core gets a beating in most of the arm & leg exercises, too. This is sturdy. The item is genuine. I verified the label with the company. There was some concern that it might be counterfeit. I asked because this didn't have the same kind of proof label the TRX I use at the gym has, but the company verified it for me. The box it comes in use sturdy and we use it when we travel in the car. When I pack it in my bag for air travel, I use the stuff sack. Would definitely buy again if this were stolen. Or my wife needed one for travel while I also traveled separately, etc. When we're together, one of us will use TRX while the other does body weight exercises on the floor. And then we switch off so we both get a good workout in. Watch the videos.

I used this piece of equipment at physical therapy for a spinal cord injury and had to have one of my own to work out at the gym. It’s the perfect piece of equipment to add support while strengthening muscles , balance, and stability. There are a multitude of exercises to do and the app provides support. The length is adjustable and is easy to tailor to your specific needs.

I train with a master trainer at my local gym and he is TRX certified (actually, he is way awesome!). My trainer uses the TRX quite a bit and I am amazed with the different exercises he comes up with to challenge me. I think the TRX is probably the only piece of equipment that can leave me with the gentle soreness that lets you know you've done great work, even my abs. The TRX is great because you can move your position very slightly to change the resistance. When my friend told me Amazon had these, I jumped on it. I can do many of my routines at home, which means not having to venture out in bad weather, and I can also still work out when I have to travel. It folds up compact and is quite light. TRX is also a quality product. These get a lot of use at my local gym and stand up to it. Because I do some work that is fully suspended, I will be hinting to my boyfriend that I'd like the ceiling mount for my birthday this year along with professional installation. I would definitely recommend the ceiling mount for anyone who is more advanced. I also will be checking Amazon for if the price drops on the TRX rip trainer as those are another great piece of equipment: http://www.amazon.com/Fitness-Anywhere-Inc-1377206-TRX-Rip/dp/B005LR54Q2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1394976662&sr=8-1&keywords=trx+rip+trainer One thing I do highly recommend is training with a TRX certified trainer so that you learn proper form. I see way too many people letting their elbows go too far back when they are doing things like chest presses and that puts unnecessary strain on their rotator cuffs. Yes, a training package can be a little expensive, but well worth having good form and the results. I'm 46, the mother of 2 and constantly get lovely comments (from both men and women) on the shape I'm in.

Awesome. Goes wherever you do?

Obviously not a perfect replacement for a gym, but it allows a lot of functional training. My biggest surprise was how much less my knees hurt doing bodyweight squats using these to stay more vertical. Slow, deep squats and keep taking a little more pressure onto my arms allows me to push harder by going longer. Definitely feel it the next day. Love it

As an avid gym-rat who gets a little twitchy when he misses a workout, I was looking for something I could use to get a good strength training workout while traveling on vacation or for work. The personal trainers at our gym introduced me to the TRX system and I ordered one to give it a try. In the few short weeks I've owned it, I have been able to take the TRX Home Training Bundle on a camping trip, on a business trip, and to work with me for a 2-day IT system crash event. While camping I was able to use trees and the rafters in a pavilion to support the TRX system, and found both made easy platforms for great workouts. At hotels and while trapped at work for two days, I was able to use the door mount to sneak in some workouts, and I found that platform to be stable as well. So it seems to me you can almost always find a place to mount the TRX system, as long as you exercise a little common sense about doing so safely. And once it's mounted securely, the TRX system is quite versatile, and allowed me to perform many exercises to get a completely taxing strength workout. The system is simple to use and well-marked for making quick changes between exercises. For the configurations that are less intuitive, the included book provides good illustrations, tips, and tricks. The only reason I withheld a 5th star on this review is because of the way the TRX system is constructed. The materials and workmanship seem solid to me. But the product is finished in such a way that very little of the system is modular. That is to say, if you were ever to wear out a pad on one of the handles, replacing it would require a lot of craftsmanship, not just a simple swap-out. So I expect that needing to replace any component on the TRX system would likely be met with having to replace the whole kit and kaboodle. I think a modular design would allow me to be more aggressive with the unit while making me comfortable I could replace parts fairly inexpensively. ('Cause let's face it, nearly $200 for nylon and ingenuity is pushing it anyway).

the TRX is a product that i am very familiar with. When i do not feel like going to the gym i use it to have a great workout at home. its easy to setup and get with it

I was first introduced to TRX by my personal trainer in her studio. She of course has it attached to a TRX-S frame but she also had one attached to a sturdy steel door to show the home use aspect of it. I mean, who really has room for a large frame in their home? I was excited to see that the one I purchased seemed to be of the same quality that the one my personal trainer uses. Even though my plan was to use it on one of my doors in my house that open outward I ordered the X mount just in case and I was glad I did. I actually turned my daughter's bedroom into a home gym when she moved out so I simply decided to X Mount it there. Good Call. I have heard some stories about issues while using even an outward opening door. I am concerned about the people who are claiming that the straps fray and break early on. That really makes me think that they are not using the product correctly. The whole point of the product is for you to use your body weight for resistance but that does NOT mean you hang on it with your hands like a monkey and not put your other muscles to work! I mean if you think the straps alone are going to do the work then you should not be using this product. I think that the instructional DVD that comes with the product is adequate. However, I just feel like if someone is going to start ANY new type of exercise or equipment they should have at least ONE session with a trainer who knows what they are doing. Yes, you can watch a video and then attempt the moves you have observed but unless you have a room full of mirrors where you can see yourself at EVERY ANGLE during the exercise you will not know if you are performing them correctly. Get some instruction from a trainer that will mold your body into the correct position(s) for that exercise/equipment. The TRX is a great addition to my home gym and is one of my favorites. I have learned over the years to only get equipment I really like and find fun (BOSU balance trainer!) to ensure I will use it.
