Has anyone tried TRX training? If you have, do you think it helps your swimming?
 
Thanks.

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&amp;#39;s and 100&amp;#39;s.  I think that TRX strengthens the core.  Many exercises place an unstable load on the shoulders, so I wouldn&amp;#39;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.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: TRX training</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/169105?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Sep 2011 16:58:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:1ad4f746-fcfc-49d5-bd45-2055244846fa</guid><dc:creator>Former Member</dc:creator><description>I have just bought it.  I expect that it will most definitely help my swimming, as I subscribe to the theory that (most) anything that makes you stronger will make you (fitter and) faster.  I have done P90X with some regularity over the past 15 months, and it has definitely helped.  If you would like a novice user&amp;#39;s TRX training journal over the next few months, let me know.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
