    I've been doing it at the gym and I *heart* it too. I can't believe how challenging doing very familiar actions but dangling off a strap can be! The newest one I got shown was for the sides of my abs. Boy, did I feel that!

    Not sure what TRX stands for, but it's a set of suspension exercises done with straps that hang from the ceiling. The resistance is your own body weight and you can make it easier or tougher depending on how far you stand from the center. You also have to hold them steady which adds to the workout (think rings in floor exercises/olympics). You do what looks like simple moves but it's a heck of a workout!! I LOVE it!! :love:

    Just to clarify, not ALL of you is suspended, usually your feet and sometimes your hands are on the floor!
