It's Friday and I am more excited than usual as today marks my first full month of the Dietetic Internship and my last day at my first Clinical rotation. While I am sad to leave the Dialysis Clinic that I have been interning at for the past month, I am looking forward to my next rotation at a Long-Term Care facility.
I am also looking forward to the end of the work day so I can get my self to the gym and try out my TRX Full Body Workout! For this Free Fitness Friday workout, you will need a TRX strap set (or a similar piece of equipment) and may want a yoga mat for some of the exercises. This workout can be performed as its own AMRAP-style workout or added to the end of another full body workout to exhaust the muscle fibers and maximize the training results! Either way, I know you will burn some serious calories and may actually have fun while doing it!
This week's Free Fitness Friday workout: TRX Full Body Workout
Exercise #1: TRX Push-ups
Exercise #2: TRX incline pull-ups
For this workout, perform each exercise for the prescribed number of repetitions and move onto the next exercise with minimal rest in between. Complete all exercises and then rest for one minute before starting back at exercise #1. Complete 3-4 rounds or As Many Rounds As Possible (AMRAP) in 20-30 minutes.
Round 1:
- TRX push-ups (15 reps) (Refer to the picture above for proper form)
- TRX incline pull-ups (15 reps) (Refer to the picture above for proper form)
- TRX single-leg hops (10 reps right leg)

Here is a short clip to demonstrate exercises #2 and #3-4 (the TRX incline pull-ups into TRX single-leg hops). Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding the other exercise listed above or proper form for any exercise using the TRX straps.
Hope you have a great workout and weekend ahead!
All smiles after this awesome workout!!
