Premier Fitness Launches TRX Suspension Training

Need to get into summer shape? Keep it local and new by trying out a new method of exercising called TRX Suspension Training at Premier Fitness in Nanuet.

This new innovative form of training is gaining popularity in the fitness industry. The TRX Suspension Trainer allows you to perform hundreds of functional exercises that build strength, flexibility, core stability and endurance. It harnesses your own bodyweight to create resistance as you workout and allows you to adjust the degree of difficulty, regardless of your fitness level, age or fitness goals.

"TRX suspension training is total resistance exercise," said Premier Fitness Owner Brian Fahrenfeld. "We've done TRX training for almost two years now at Premier Fitness.

The 1-hour classes can accommodate up to 14 people and it's open enrollemnt. A TRX personal trainer will guide the workout taking suggestions from members on what they want to work on that session. All teachers are TRX trained.

"You need to sign up to get a spot since it's a fee-based program, which is not included in your membership," said Fahrenfeld. "It's very cost effective for people who want to work closer with a personal trainer."

He added that there are members in their early 20s up to a 79 year old lady that attends TRX classes and it's sometimes used in the kids classes. It's very low impact as it involved straps, loops, handles and a woven cord that can hold more than 300 pounds.

The TRX work outs can be adjusted for those in specific sports such as golf or swimming.

"On nice days, we can hang the TRX bands off the front of the building," said Fahrenfeld. "It's also the preferred workout for Drew Brees of the New Orlean Saints."

It runs Monday-Thurday and Saturday.

Cost for unlimited sessions is $79 for Non-Members and $59 for Premier Fitness Members
