TRX Tactical Gym

It’s kind of over priced for what it is, especially if it comes with the dvd and book. I used it in an apartment and the attachment for using it on a door never failed over a two year period. It has since been replaced by rings now that I have a home gym setup.

I have no idea why the TRX is so well regarded. I bought this setup prior to a deployment and I used it almost every day. It was needlessly complicated. There is nothing that the TRX does that a set of rings with a Thule strap doesn’t do better. The loops aren’t Independant, so you have to do a silly weaving dance to use one side without the other. The only positive IMO is that they hold their value and sell at a decent price. If you are going to a remote place, be it military or otherwise, buy RINGS and a Thule strap, not this nonsense.

The TRX Tactical is one of those pieces that quietly becomes part of your regular routine. I have mine mounted on my power rack and I am always finding some way to use it. It usually starts as part of a warm up, but it almost always turns into more than that. It is simple, tough, and very versatile without taking up any real space. Once it is set up, it just lives there ready to go. If you are building out a gym, I would say either a solid set of rings or something like the TRX Tactical should be included. It is one of those small additions that ends up getting used way more than you expect. Highly recommend having one around.

Nice pice in the gym, find I don't use them as much since I added basic wooden rings to my rack

TRX’s are awesome, great for outdoor workouts and pack up light to travel with. Nice piece of kit to keep by the back door for back yard workouts while the mini-me’s jump in the trampoline
