So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. This is a wrap-up of the FORCE program (84 days).
I finished the TRX FORCE program last Sunday, but I’ve been on travel and so haven’t had a chance to post.
Overall, I was happy with the TRX FORCE program. I felt it gave me a jump-start at developing overall body functional fitness, and . . . → Read More: End of TRX FORCE Program, and Where from Here

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program.). Today was Day 82.
The first week of the fall semester is always one of bedlam, slipping schedules, and unexpected emergencies. This week was no exception to this expectation. So I wasn’t able to manage more-frequent updates, and this one will be pretty succinct.
But I have managed to get in some training, however . . . → Read More: Catching up: Busy Week, Kettlebells, and Working through TRX Week 12

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 76.
After my long drive yesterday, I managed to get in a kettlebell and TRX workout. I was going to run also, but the heat ran that idea into the ground.
For kettlebells, since I need to strengthen my grip (noted after my trouble with the 32KG kettlebell) I did 20 . . . → Read More: Single-Arm Kettlebell Swings, End of TRX Week 11, and a Nice Run

I’ve been doing crazy travel for the last couple of days, but I did manage the following:
Two days ago, on Tuesday, I did TRX workout 2 of week 11: another humbling, crumbling, mass of exercises with multiple sets with some/no rest and minimal rest between exercises.

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 71.
First, the good news.
The kettlebell workout went well today. I managed three ladders with two rungs of clean and push-presses with the 32 KG kettlebell. That is a big weight for me, and so I was happy to see it go up twice, even if it was with a . . . → Read More: Kettlebell Swing Goal Met and a Rough Start to TRX Week 11

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 70.
Although I was supposed to do a TRX workout on Friday, a crazy travel schedule kept me from it. But I got in a workout first thing Saturday morning, yesterday, so that was the last strength workout of the TRX program for week 10. Just two more weeks to go!

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 67.
So I got tired of being sick, and tried something a little different today. I’ve been getting used to my new 32KG kettlebell, mostly by doing cleans and swings. I’d like to be able to work up to doing presses with this weight kettlebell also, so today I tried a . . . → Read More: Pushing the Press, a Woops with the 32KG Kettlebell, TRX Day 67, and a Run

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Yesterday was Day 65.
Today is a rest day, and I am doing just that.
I don’t know if it was the intense August heat we had yesterday, or the fact that I am still fighting off a cold, but I had no energy going in to my workout. I was determined not to . . . → Read More: Yesterday did Kettlebells and TRX Day 65… No Fun in the Heat

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 64.
Somewhere in my recent travels I picked up a head cold. Blah. But, I didn’t want to lose any ground, so decided to push through the workout as planned, though perhaps I didn’t have as much pep in my step as I had hoped.
I started out with 3×5 kettlebell . . . → Read More: Kettlebells, TRX Day 64, Short Run, + How I Avoid Shredding my Hands

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 61.
My goal for today was to make it through 20 minutes of swings with the 32KG kettlebell. Alas, my gas tank was empty, and I only made it to 15 minutes of 10 swings on the minute, or 150 swings with the 32KG kettlebell.
