Planet Fitness is stuck with their treadmills and old style bodybuilding machines. They hate when we keep adding new and innovative functional training methods – like the TRX Suspension Training System.
Suspension Training forces you to recruit more muscles during every exercise, particularly for your pillar stabilizers: shoulders, hips, and core. This results in:
- A greater calorie burn during your workout and for up to 24-48 hours after your workout to accelerate fat loss.
- Activating more/new muscle fibers thus stimulating new muscle growth which further elevates metabolism.
- Increased performance- The better you get at performing a movement pattern in an unstable environment, the better you will perform that same movement pattern in a stable environment. For example, getting really good at doing TRX Suspended Push-ups will make regular floor push-ups seem like a walk in the park!
In addition, since the instability of suspension training is a lot more taxing on your nervous system and rapidly increases heart rate due to the fight or flight hormonal response, the 30 seconds of recovery provides the blow you need to get ready to put forth maximum effort on the next exercise.
This is an example of a great core training workout:
