the best TRX exercises
The TRX always freaked me out a little bit. For one, it kind of looks like a torture device. I remember the first time I saw one and was like, “I’m supposed to CLIMB that?” (A hint: you’re not. Haha.) Eventually, I got to know and love the TRX thanks to classes in Tucson and…
