TRX For Yoga: Why You Should Try Suspension Training

For the more experienced yogi, a TRX strap can introduce more play into your practice, as it assists you in safely working toward challenging poses like inversions, arm balances and backbends that may seem scary or complex in a normal yoga studio setting. With your feet in the straps, you can learn which muscles you need to engage in a pose without supporting all of your bodyweight or worrying about falling. This kind of aid in alignment lets your body learn how a pose should feel, which can actually rewire your brain and tone muscles in an unexpected way. “It’s going to offer you different challenges and different assistance at the same time, so you’re going to notice things that you may not notice off the strap,” says Harrison.
