A awesome TRX workout from Chris Fales.
Give this a go, and let me know how you do with it!
So we have a limited amount of time for a workout, and you want to really want to get a good full workout in, well look no where else and try this 12 – 15 min workout.
10 rounds of 10 reps for each exercise.
1. TRX Atomic Push-up: Double knee tuck, and then a push-up and repeat!
2. Kettle bell swings
Use an appropriate weight for the kettle bell swings, about 80 to 85% of your 1 RM.

Last night we worked on arms, shoulders and core. Good 40 -50 mins workout.

Easy WOD as they said. Now enjoy.
So we have started training more with the TRX band.
This is definitely a very incredible piece of equipment, yet it is so simple. Just a rugged piece of straps that can withhold a lot of weight.
The rest of the training is based on creativity, body weight, and angles.
We are able to do suspended push-ups, jumping leg lunges, reverse rows, ab workouts. There is a lot to do with the bands. Just simple stuff, that gets your muscles leaner and stronger.
Stay tuned for results in the next couple of months to half a year, but so far the TRX bands are recommended.
