So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 7.
Finally, one week completed!
Today wasn't a tough workout day, actually. It was a rest day for strength and instead of a light run, as called for by the cardio component, I did some jump rope, Turkish getups, and two sets of light one-handed swings.
But one thing I am noticing is that, especially when doing a strength and/or cardio workout each day, every day, getting enough rest is really important. So far this week my work and travel schedules have kept me busy, and so in order to also get in the TRX workouts each day, the only way to make the time was to cut into my sleep schedule. After 7 days, I am no longer really feeling sore, but just really tired. The lesson my body is trying to tell me is that I need to do better at being sure I give my body enough time to repair itself after these workouts.
So, in lieu of more discussion, here's the TRX being used in The Biggest Loser show --- the TRX allows those who might be hesitant about going to the gym actually to have the gym be brought to them:
