Welcome
Within this manual you are going to find all the TRX exercises
that is included in the workout program. Please note that you
dont need a TRX specifically to perform these exercises. You
can easily use any type of suspension trainer to perform the
exercises and the workouts.
These exercises can be very challenging. Make sure to rest
when you need it and feel free to substitute any exercise that
you cannot perform. It’s not worth injuring yourself. It is
recommended that you learn the TRX Push Up and TRX
Row first before attempting the more technical exercises.
Here are some tips before starting:
If anything hurts while performing an exercise, stop doing
it immediately. If you need any exercise alternatives, feel
free to email me at contact@andrewraposo.com
If you aren’t sure on how to perform an exercise, be sure
to get instruction from a certified personal trainer.
Make sure to perform one of the Mobility Warm Up
routines that I present in my “Get Mobility Like A Fighter”
videos before starting any of the workouts in the
program.
If you are just starting out and youre choosing which day
you are going to perform a workout, make sure there is a
day of rest between workout days.
For Example:
TRX Training Manual

Monday Workout
Tuesday Rest
Wednesday Workout
Thursday Rest
Friday Workout
Saturday Rest
Sunday Rest
Make sure you are being active during your rest days. Go
for a long walk, bike ride, play a sport, etc.
Cool down appropriately after completing a workout by
foam rolling or stretching.
How To Incorporate These Workouts Into An Existing
Program
There are many ways you can put these workouts into
your program. You can use the TRX workouts to replace a
full body-conditioning day or add in the “ab focused” TRX
workouts and use those as an ab training circuit into your
routine. Which makes a good fit at the end of a routine
you are currently following.
If you are following a strength routine, you can put these
workouts on a “conditioning day” or you can use them as
an intense finisher after your main strength exercises.
This will help accelerate fat loss like nothing else.
If you have a specific program you are following or
currently competing in a sport and you want to better fit
this into your routine then shoot me an email at
contact@andrewraposo.com Make sure you provide your
workout schedule in detail so I can give you the best
results.
