Taking a break from mowing the too wet grass but it has to be done and watching the TRX workout videos. I want one. I use it at the gym some but I want one at home. Maybe I'll splurge and buy myself a birthday present. I keep entering to win one but not much hopes of being successful.

This is a later post as with the humidity am taking breaks. Am letting the sun and breeze that just stated dry the grass more as I'm to the really wet sections the mower keeps clogging up. The am shady parts of the back will have sun shortly. Will switch and do the front in a few.

I checked Amazon and found a WOSS suspension system similar to the TRX all American made for about 1/4 of the price, lots of great reviews comparing it to the TRX. I ordered it, justifying $250 with the ceiling mount was not an option but $60.00+tax including the mount and $5.00 extended warrantee is reasonable, free shipping since I'm not in a hurry 5-8 days, not bad. So YAY!! a birthday present for me. I'll be able to watch the TRX videos and use it at home, can't really do the videos at the gym.

Now as I re-do my open living room and dining room area it has to also function as a mini gym. MMM thinking to do as to furniture placement for the future before I mount the connection on my ceiling. I think the 10 foot ceiling in my upstairs will work better than the 7 foot basement one.

I so wanted to go for a run last night. I know I shouldn't due to knee and ankle issues. Was good didn't, tried jogging on my trampoline it just the same as I remember when I could run.

Kathy, hope the program is good for you. suspension training is not as hard as it looks as you use your body and by the angle you control how hard it is. It is amazing for your core muscles. The videos on youtube by Amy give you adaptions to fit your fitness level. For me it seems to be a good thing. I will continue using it as part of my overall get fit incentive. I tend to jump from one thing to another and having options at home is good for me, I get bored easily if I'm not changing things often. My intentions of making it to the gym don't always work out. Today I'm trying to figure out how to build a flat simple weight bench from materials I have on hand while pulling weeds and being lazy on my patio... MMMM I'm a bit nuts I know. my middle DD thinks I am, her kids think it's cool. LOL

I used TRX over the winter with a personal trainer and it's so scalable for ability. You just adjust the angle of your body to make it easier or harder. I loved it.

Cathy's Mom, that is one thing I really like about the suspension trainer systems.
