Workout of the Month: Bodyweight and TRX Workout

10th September 2018
TRX and Bodyweight Workout /Eigengewicht und TRX Workout

Looking for a workout to help you improve your back and your posture? Search no more. This mix of body-weight exercises and TRX is the functional workout you need.

Functional training exercises, performed either with body-weight alone or with the support of equipment, can work on the body’s ability to find stabilization, a capacity that should be seen as one of the primary body functions. This workout will promote the harmony between your upper-body and lower-body.

BODYWEIGHT AND TRX WORKOUT

  • 4 exercises
  • 15 reps each set, 4 sets, 30 seconds rest
  • Equipment: bar and strips, TRX

1. LATERAL JUMPS

15 reps, 4 sets, 30 seconds rest

  • Hang the bar in the lowest level (closest to the ground).
  • Position your body sideways in relation to the bar.
  • Flex the knee and hop to put a foot on the other side of the bar – shift the weight to that foot.
  • Repeat from the opposite side.

2. HAMSTRING CURL

15 reps, 4 sets, 30 seconds rest

  • Hang the bar in the strips. When you lay on the floor, the bar should be slightly under your knees.
  • Place both feet on top of the bar and keep them apart, waist wide. The bar placed in mid-foot, plantar area.
  • Lift the hip, while placing all body weight on your shoulder blades.
  • Glutes and abdominals must be activated to maintain pelvic stability, and arms stretched alongside the body to assure balance.
  • Push the legs forward, stretching the knees.
  • Push downwards to keep the feet firmly against the bar and bring it towards your core.

3. PUSH UP WITH ROTATION

15 reps, 4 sets, 30 seconds rest

  • With arms stretched and the body partially planking, parallel to the floor, bring the torso closer to the ground by bending the elbows.
  • Elbows should be ‘facing’ outwards in relation to the medial line.
  • The trunk should be brought down as close to the ground as possible without contact or extreme shoulder discomfort.
  • Shoulder blades should remain stable, and armpits and chest should distribute strength.
  • Push the palms firmly against the floor to push back upwards and straighten the arms (keeping shoulder blades steady).
  • At the end of the motion perform a twist of the trunk, from the pelvis up, raising one arm towards the ceiling and finalizing the movement in a stable T position.
  • Rotate back to the original plank with both hands on the floor, arms stretched.

4. TRX LOW PULL

15 reps, 4 sets, 30 seconds rest

  • With both hands firmly grab the TRX handles and lean back until the straps are tense and the body is in an oblique angle to the ground.
  • Arms should be stretched, and the body should be planking with the knees slightly bent.
  • Palms facing inwards and begin pulling, allowing the body to move up, towards the handles.
  • Keep arms close to your body throughout the whole movement.
  • In a controlled descent, reduce the muscle tension of the arms and stretch them once again until you find the original position.
  • Strive to maintain the core as stable as possible, using shoulder blades and spine for this effect.
