challenge is perfect for you.
The TRX Anti-Extension Fallout is precisely to avoid spinal extension by maintaining a very strong plank throughout the movement. The TRX Kneeling Fallout is an easier version of this exercise and should be mastered before performing the straight legged Fallout.
For workout two we will follow the same push, pull, legs format as day one with a little more core work involved and of course a variation in exercises.
For workout 3 we will continue the push, pull, legs format with a continued focus on core work with the addition of some extra back work to round out the week with full body coverage.
The TRX Hamstring Curl is a preceeding movement towards the Supine Hip Extension to Leg Curl. It’s a good beginning posterior chain (Glutes, hamstrings, lower back) activator and is loved by runners around the world.
By now you should be feeling a lot more comfortable using the TRX equipment, or if you already have TRX experience you should have settled back into the feeling of using the suspension trainer.
For workout two we will be hitting each of the major muscle groups with a focus at the end of the session on shoulder tone and definition by isolating the deltoids.
For workout three we will finish up with a full body workout with no isolation exercises, instead choosing to favour the larger muscle sets in the body by doubling up on leg and back work.
Moving into the third fortnight of the eight-week challenge we will be swapping to a more traditional four-day split, adding an extra day to your workout week allows us to split each workout into its specific muscle group.
The TRX high torso rotation is an alternative exercise to the torso that primarily targets the abs and to a lesser degree also targets the lats and obliques. High torso rotation will give you an attractive body that will look great in t-shirts for summer.
For workout two we will be focusing on the chest muscle group. Cover the full chest range of upper, mid and lower chest this range of exercises will provide a good even coverage for your chest with slight work in the triceps as well to aid with arm toning.
