Suspension gym systems are becoming increasingly popular. You see them in gyms and health clubs; they even offer suspension training classes at the gym I belong to. I have had one for some time now and I can honestly say it’s the one piece of home gym equipment that I could not live without! I love mine because it was inexpensive, doesn’t take up a lot of room, and it’s extremely versatile! It’s amazing the number of exercises available with a relatively simple piece of equipment. Unfortunately, it seems like many people are not familiar with this system. “Cardio equipment? Check. Free weights and machines? No problem. Two straps suspended overhead that I’m supposed to do what with??” 🙂 I actually think that if more people knew exactly what suspension gyms were capable of that they would spend a lot more time using them. For this purpose I made this video of my personal “Top 10 Favorite Suspension Gym Exercises“. Well, that and the fact that we’re giving one away for free this week on T&T! Keep reading for more details…
We shot this video over the weekend to introduce you to the myriad of exercises you can create with a home suspension gym. This is a demonstration of my top 10 favorites with some explanation, key details, and even progression to a few of them.
The unit I’m using in this video is called a “rip:60“. It’s made by FreeMotion and one of my favorite pieces of equipment in my home gym. Check it out here!
As always, I love to hear from you! Comments and emails are always welcome; you can find me at toneandtightenfitness{at}gmail.com.
Make it happen,
Jared
