Rip 60 Fitness DVD & Suspension Trainer Set
When I ordered my TRX Trainer, I was VERY tempted to drop it in favor of the Rip 60 set. I’ve only ever used a TRX
before and ultimately chickened out, favoring familiarity.
Allison, one of my bootcampers, recently bought herself the Rip 60 set and swears that it’s AMAZING. She LOVES following the DVD’s, which may be something that beginners might find beneficial (while the TRX comes with one DVD, it’s more of a tool you can use on the go or on your own). She also says that it’s HARD (not as hard as bootcamp, of course. :)
I have yet to test it out, but for those of you looking for something to rev up your body for summer, this set seems like a great investment and WAY less expensive than some other fitness series out there! It’s like a cross between P90X and TRX. Intensity guaranteed!

TRX Yoga Kickbox Fusion
I’ve been patiently waiting for my TRX Trainer to come in from Amazon (various shipping issues - some my fault, some there’s). It’s FINALLY coming in this week and I’m giddy with excitement. I’ve worked with a friend’s TRX for over a year (whenever I could grab it) and am looking forward to finally having my own! Yay, new toys!
I mix things up constantly, and am ALWAYS looking for tools that are multi-fuctional, offer TONS of options and variety and are easy to store/take with me. TRX fits the bill! Loved some of the core training exercises in the video above (Steady Sorceress is my fav).
Do you have a TRX trainer at home? How do you like it?
My TRX is on its way! Happy girl, right here.
Haven’t been this excited about new equipment in a LONG time. Woot!
I know it’s pricier than other equipment, so I’ve waited a LONG time to invest. I got a chance to try it a few months back and it blew my mind. Its versatility more than makes up for the price: I can use it at home, at the gym or outside AND it offers thousands of exercise options, for every level. It’ll be easy to bring with me when I’m training clients at home and it’s just the extra motivation boost I needed for spring/summer. I can’t wait to whip this baby out at the park!
Some girls get giddy over shoes. I get giddy over workout equipment. Smiles for miles. :) TRX Pro Pack + Door Anchor
