Strap Ons and Sweating?

I get those TRX straps strapped on and I feel like I am getting a serious muscle work out. I am sweating and straining but it seems like, the people that I catch watching any part of this, have a funny look on their face. These looks usually come from the weight section of the gym. I guess it doesn't look like much of a work out... me jumping around with straps and not actually lifting weights.
First, before the snarks start to circle this post, I don't care what people think for any other reason than just curiosity.
Is a TRX work out considered "easy" and not as effective as lifting weights? I would like to know....

    To answer your question, Body-weight workouts can be challenging! I think they are just as beneficial as lifting just weights. Look at gymnast on the rings!

    Oh and I thought this post was going in a totally different direction!
