4 TRX Video Workouts for Strength, Mobility, & Fat Burn

Welcome to the TRX Workout Challenge!

There are 4 workouts designed to help you build a foundation of lean muscle and strength, shed fat, and improve flexibility. The challenge is to complete all 4 of them each week…

The TRX Workout Technique

We will be using “muscle-centric technique” for all of these TRX workouts. Most suspension training workouts focus on “movement-centric technique,” which means using multiple muscles to move your bodyweight from point A to B.

While this is fine if you just want to work up a sweat, we want to build actual lean muscle. By using muscle-centric technique, we will isolate specific muscle groups to direct all our bodyweight load onto them.

When you isolate specific muscles, it creates a greater strength and muscle-building stimulus compared to a shared load, where multiple muscles only take a fraction of the load, resulting in a weaker stimulus.

Muscle-centric technique is what will build lean strength from every single TRX workout. So focus on your technique from the instructional ques in each workout video..

Engage Your Mind-Muscle Connection

I also want you to engage your mind-muscle connection in these workouts.

Visualise your muscles as they squeeze, lengthen, and contract. Don’t just mindlessly move from point A to B. Focus on the muscle you’re training and feel it work.

Squeeze it powerfully with your mind throughout every single rep in every workout.

Before we begin, we’ll do a warm-up routine to loosen your joints, help prevent injury, get the blood pumping, and establish your mind-muscle connection with each muscle group.
