I started TRX training in January. This year I set personal bests in all LC freestyle events except the 50 and came very close in that. I started swimming masters 7years ago, at age 59. I do exercises that replicate my strokes in some way, and do them for the duration of 50's and 100's. I think that TRX strengthens the core. Many exercises place an unstable load on the shoulders, so I wouldn't recommend to folks with shoulder problems. I alternate TRX with weight training sessions. For me, I believe this approach has made a difference in my swimming outcomes this year.
