Step-by-step instructions

Stand facing the TRX Suspension Trainer and grab the handles with your palms facing each other.

Step back until your body is at a slight angle. Your arms should be straight out in front of you.

Keep your body straight and your core engaged as you open your arms out to the sides, forming an 'X' shape.

Slowly return your arms to the starting position and repeat.

Make sure to control your movement and don't let the TRX straps pull you forward.
