TRX Online Training for Team Fitness Belfast!
On Saturday, we should have been welcoming Paul Edmondson & TRX UK to the Fitness Belfast Studio to wow us with their TRX For Sports Medicine course.
But of course, the world has changed a bit since that was planned, and so instead, the amazing team at TRX UK treated myself, Neil & Caitriona and almost 200 others to their latest TRX Suspension Trainer certification, entirely online & completely FREE. How friggin awesome of them was that?!
Having loved the ‘real-life’ TRX courses, certifications & gatherings I’ve attended in the U.K. & Ireland, I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect of 6 hours online, but I had a feeling it would be top notch. And it was.
Massive thanks to Nathan, Matt and Ben, for masterfully ‘Zooming’ with multiple locations, to hundreds of participants, and guiding us through dodgy masses & spaces, to the promised land of head-to-heel-like-steel :)
And most importantly, for giving the Fitness Belfast Team the opportunity to upscale our learning in these strange & difficult times, and to get away from our remaining Easter eggs…! Actually maybe that’s just me, I actually keep buying more because they’re sooooo cheap in my local Tesco.
We hope we’re back in studio soon, we really miss you all & we’ve a few new moves up our sleeves for when we do.
If you’re a physio, osteopath, yoga teacher, personal trainer, or even if you just have a keen interest in TRX Suspension Training, TRX are very kindly offering their most popular certification & even training app entirely free of charge at the minute and I couldn’t recommend either enough.
