TRX suspension training is one of the most versatile workouts you can do—it builds strength, stability, and mobility all at once. But to get the best results (and avoid injuries), proper form is everything. At Answer is Fitness in Foxboro, MA, our trainers often see a few common TRX mistakes that can easily be corrected with a little awareness and adjustment.
When doing moves like rows or planks, many people let their spine curve. Keep your core tight and shoulders back to maintain a straight line from head to heels. Think “strong plank,” not “slouch.”
Your body angle determines the difficulty. Leaning too far can strain your shoulders; not leaning enough limits your workout. Adjust your foot placement to find a challenging—but safe—angle.
If one strap is shorter, your body will rotate, throwing off your form. Always check your strap length and hand placement before each set.
Every TRX movement starts with a stable midsection. Engage your abs to protect your back and power every motion.
TRX is about control, not speed. Slow, deliberate movements increase strength, balance, and muscle activation. Mastering these details helps you maximize the benefits of every TRX session—building lean muscle, better posture, and total-body stability.
