I'm new to using a TRX or Band, where shall I start?
First up, welcome! Out of all the millions of websites out there thank you for visiting this one. Secondly, your interest and motivation will change your life. It did for me and thousands of fitness freedom athletes in our community of all ages.
The best place to start would be with the Beginner TRX Total Body Transformation Program. It’s the most popular Program and will teach you the effective muscle-centric TRX technique to transform your body and begin your life-changing journey.
If you’re seeking a resistance band Program, get stuck into the Band Muscle Toning Program which is for beginners/intermediates to learn the band muscle-centric technique and transform their body with just one resistance band.
Do you have any training courses or Workout Programs?
Yes absolutely, I have TRX Suspension Trainer Workout Programs for all levels and ages here. They will teach you the effective 'Mindful Muscle-Centric Technique' that will transform your body!
There are so many 'scammers' online, how can I trust you?
I guess at first, you shouldn’t. Trust is built and earned over time. Check out my reviews and success stories so you can get a better understanding of what I am about and who I help.
Or stalk me on social so you can see that this is my passion and mission in life:
Where are you based?
I am mainly based in London, UK. But I love travelling, specifically backpacking our beautiful world and experiencing other cultures... So most likely I may be based on the side of a mountain or little beach hut. Perhaps I’ll even meet you in person at some point… That would be just awesome!
