Wow! Thank you for such a great explanation of the feet positions for these standing TRX exercises, I have been having trouble with these. I will keep watching.
Thanks for watching. I'm so glad this was helpful and helped with your form and workout. Checkout our other videos for more tips and exercises. Have a great day!
This chest fly is the best way to do it on TRX. Less strain on the shoulders. Unfortunately for this exercise it would be nice if the hand strap was wider as it feels like my forearms will snap in half.
Thank you so much! I'm hoping this will really help a family member who is having some problems. Going to check with his PT first, but I really think this would be great for him after he gets enough reformer sessions to get the idea.(And helpful for me too because I can't go to class every day, after all. ;) )
Thanks Carol. I'm happy to hear this might be helpful to you and your family. Working with the resistance bands is a good way to mimic the spring resistance in a home workout. Good Luck!
@@TheBodyCenterPilates I will definitely be checking out more of your vids. I appreciate your knowledge and the time you take to teach proper form. Lots of ways to do TRX incorrectly as I know all too well from hard lessons learned!
Hi MIchele. Thanks for your comment. My mats are from the top of my reformer equipment which is why they are raised. I'm not sure you can find the same type. I did find a large, somewhat thick mat on amazon that might work for you. It's a little expensive but if comfortable and large enough might be worth it. Good luck. www.amazon.com/Gxmmat-Pilates-Stretching-Anti-Tear-Exercise/dp/B077P1H9BL/ref=sxin_13_pa_sp_search_thematic_sspa?cv_ct_cx=Thick+Exercise+Mat&keywords=Thick+Exercise+Mat&pd_rd_i=B077P1H9BL&pd_rd_r=72fab02d-b183-422a-b404-e306d9963718&pd_rd_w=4PB2g&pd_rd_wg=a00EA&pf_rd_p=69e6ba92-4b2b-4486-a0ef-136583f2d22c&pf_rd_r=0B4PT10RYE9BP52ZAFQ6&qid=1636294290&sr=1-4-a73d1c8c-2fd2-4f19-aa41-2df022bcb241-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFZRFkzWlQ4RzBLWUcmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA0MTk4NzIzMkpVNlhZVVpYT0tIJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAyNTg3MDIzNzhVUktMRlkwT043JndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3Bfc2VhcmNoX3RoZW1hdGljJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
