If you’re looking for discovering what the latest and best is in fitness equipment, all you have to do is to tune into The Biggest Loser every Tuesday night.
During this season, the contestants will be sculpting their bodies to the TRX, a piece of exercise equipment that has Bob Harper praising its benefits.
The TRX is a suspension training apparatus that offers an all-body workout in 25 minutes. It is supposed to build muscle balance, joint stability, mobility, and core strength, and it’s being used in this season’s 24 Hour Fitness gym by all the Biggest Loser couples.
Because the TRX weighs less than 2 lbs, sets up in under a minute, and stores in a small bag, you can use it just about anywhere. All you have to do is anchor it onto a stable door. The whole system costs $200. Also, watch the class schedule at your gym for TRX Suspension Training classes.
Here’s a video showing the TRX in action.

I am in an aircast, and cannot do weightbearing exercise. I am limited to basically mat exercises. Once out of the cast, I will probably have a compromised foot. How can I use this equipment? and I need to do aerobics too, coz I have weight issues and need to burn fat too!
