I've just gone out and bought a suspension trainer

Can someone recommend some good exercises to start with. Maybe a YouTube tutorial to get me going? I have an average level of fitness already but I'm looking to tone

Thanks

    There's a free app called "bodyweight" that has a list of all the exercises with photos and short videos which is good for inspiration...
    I would usually do squats, single leg squats, lunges, jet pack squats for legs. Narrow/wide rows, bicep curls, some flys, chest press and chest flys, some tricep roll outs.. And then core- crunches, press ups, mountain climbers, side crunches and/or maybe some combos eg atomic press ups..

    I find it really enjoyable and you see fast progress.. Also love how you're basically working the whole body with all the exercises... Enjoy!

    i love mine, there is an infinite amount of things you can do with it. i love it for deep stretching after work. its great for core exercises with your feet in it.

    Google TRX exercises. It doesn't matter.If you didn't buy a TRX, suspension training is suspension training.

    I take a TRX class twice a week - it's my happy place :smiley: All of the above - I also love squat rows and even the dreaded burpees with one foot in the strap -my balance has improved immensely.
