Time under tension is the greatest opportunity for challenging and building your muscles... ..with your TRX suspension training workouts. It’s NOT how many reps. it’s how long (time) the muscle was placed under constant tension (squeeze) within those reps. Let me...
Eat the majority of your daily fat requirement furthest from our workout. Why? Because after a workout, we want to utilise the increased blood flow that is pumping to the muscle area we have trained. So it makes sense to ride off the benefits of this blood supply and...
The below is purely for a metaphorical example. The complexities of what insulin does is wonderfully huge. I just want to keep our focus on how we can use it to benefit transforming our body, in the simplest terms. Think of insulin as a key. There are millions of...
First, let’s address the number 1 reason why people tend to re-bound/yo-yo back to where they were when doing a diet. We’ll give the benefit of the doubt that they have ticked all the healthy eating boxes, exercising well and eating less. Yet after so long they end up...
Do you need to eat a lot of food (bulking) to build muscle, yes. However... having just that singular focus (bulking) will inevitably lead to one thing, fat gain. Remember this - How fast you gain muscle is a result of how much you can adapt to training AND how much...
The analogy ‘slow and steady wins the race’ is the best way to think of using a TRX suspension trainer. Suspension training gives you more bang for your buck because many stabilising muscles and secondary muscles come into play when performing exercises using it....
I used to believe I HAD TO use a gym to achieve my fitness goals and ultimately, feel myself. It’s what everyone says right?! I developed an unhealthy psychological reliance on gyms believing I had to be in one or near one at all times: “I can’t travel anywhere that...
I used to be so addicted to using the gym. I'd even prioritise it before friends & family. Sometimes I'd even make up excuses about why I couldn't attend social events because I wanted to use the gym instead. The thing is after years of being in it - I absolutely...
If you're struggling to build lean muscle and visibly transform your body with a suspension trainer, you're not alone. Most people mindlessly jump around, pushing and pulling from this position to that. The results? A bit of sweating. Basically cardio. The outcome?...
"You must be on steroids!" "There's no way you only use a TRX Suspension Trainer!" "You must use a gym and weights!" Understandably, due to social media and the relentless lies in the health and fitness industry. It's easier for people to assume a 'cheat' rather than...
Do you have a hard time losing fat? Then I’d like you to think about working in the below routine alongside your TRX Workout Program for a short spell. I used to struggle burning fat. After learning about how metabolism and calorie burning worked, that struggle got a...
Most people 'mindlessly move' with TRX Suspension Training. Randomly pushing, pulling, and hanging to never see any visible results.. If you’ve tried vids... Apps... workout plans... different diets... gyms... weights... figuring it all out yourself… But, your body...
TRX training improves body strength and cardiovascular health without any traditional weigh-lifting. It was invented by a former Navy SEAL and the system became incredibly popular all over the world, with every branch of the military and professional athletes using it...
The greatest thing I ever learned about lean muscle building was, "Your muscle doesn't know where you are or what you're holding. All it knows is the tension you can place upon through a range of motion." So, can you build muscle using only a TRX suspension trainer?...
Referring to the transformation photo below... On the left was the last time I used a gym in 2016. Having spent a total of ten years using one. I left the gym for good because I hated the ego-centric atmosphere and how reliant I had become on it. I literally couldn't...
There's a lot of fun to be had when using a TRX to train the arms... You can gain well-developed biceps and triceps using time under tension and technique. And a suspension trainer is a perfect tool to do that because it works with your individual biomechanics, not...
Focusing on time under tension when performing TRX shoulder and back exercises is the key to building muscle and functional strength. It's not as easy to fully lengthen and shorten your shoulder muscles, compared to your chest, quads (things), or back muscles. This is...
If you want to take the gym on the road. Or if you're like me, and never want to rely on a gym again. A TRX suspension trainer is for you. Using a suspension trainer in your own space is a double whammy for body and mind development. In this post, I'll explain the six...

Hello, my friend... I help busy professionals build lean muscle and transform their bodies from home-with a TRX suspension trainer or resistance band, and simple nutrition optimisation. I call it Fitness Freedom!
I spent 8+ years as a personal trainer hating the ego-driven gym culture. Every day I saw busy professionals like you struggle to make sessions, feel intimidated by the environment, and regard the gym as a chore NOT enjoyment. Because of this, their results were limited. But they believed there was no other way. So in 2016, I setup Fitness Freedom Athletes. To teach you how to transform your body from home... so you never need to rely on gyms, diet fads, or anyone else's schedule.
In less than 60 seconds discover the right suspension trainer or resistance band Program for your fitness goal...
