Workout Wednesday

TRX 

The lunge. The upper body. The everything.

What better way to get back in action than with a fun new lunge option using the TRX. 

What is a TRX you ask?  To those who are new it is suspension training body weight exercises using strength, flexibility, balance and core stability all in one.  Just starting out?  TRX can be used at any level and can be modified to support those new to working out or push those who are fitness animals. 

This particular TRX lunge is one of my favorites as it works the body in its entirety.  It also taps straight into your cardiovascular system while working all the strength, balance and stabilization that we hope to achieve in a workout. The picture above is only showing the reverse lunge but I also took the lunge from front to back and added a narrow row with the arms.   

Here is my squat lunge sequence: 

Basic TRX squat (arms straight or you can add the row)  20 reps

Right leg reverse lunge

Right leg forward lunge (Arms in a Y, keeping shoulders back and down)

Right leg reverse to forward lunge

Basic TRX Squat

Left leg reverse lunge

Left leg forward lunge 

Left leg reverse to forward lunge

Repeat 1-3x and you are good to go!
