Training RIP Trainer Basic Kit, Essential for Strengthening the Core

Three great things about the Rip trainer. 1) It really provides a great workout, especially for core and lateral twisting and balance. I use mine with an Indo balance board as a paddle board simulator and it works great. 2) Very compact. Store it in a corner or under a sofa. All you need is something solid to attach it to like a hook in a wall stud. 3) Very well made. It's not just an expensive bungee cord that would wear through quickly and snap with the repeated major pressure and release an exercise session involves, but a well designed integrated and rugged unit that will last for a very long time.

It can used for warmups, core, shoulders, - entire body. Very versatile. If COUPLED W A TRX, you have the tools needed for an excellent Body work out.

I have always used free weights over the last, almost 40 years, in my workouts. After some major surgeries, I worked with a personal trainer who introduced me to the Rip Trainer as a alternative to free weights. I have found I can obtain the results I want from my workouts without using free weights, although I do still retain a couple of free weight exercises in my routine. I also travel in the winter and will no longer need to join a fitness center during my stays away from home as I will simply take my Rip Trainer along and work out wherever I might be staying. Easy to use, good instructional video, many options for use of the Trainer. Quality is excellent.

The rip trainer, like the original TRX system, represents a great functional workout. The beauty is the simplicity, which for some could be a criticism if you are looking to lug around heavy weights. Having had the original TRX for about 6 years, I was actually surprised by the 20 minute video which you can download upon purchase -- it's very useful, and goes through a number of excellent exercises. Additionally, the trx website and youtube are excellent resources for additional ways to punish yourself. For those you mentioned the "serious flaw" about being unable to thread the cable through the eyelet -- consider this a bit of a darwinian challenge. If you can't figure that out, perhaps lugging around the big heavy weights represents the highest order accomplishment. Hint, thread thru webbing, not the eyelet. To make it even easier, buy a couple of caribiner to very quickly switch between the various strength cords. Again, I highly recommend a quick peek at some of the exercise videos out there - while it looks deceptively simple, the workouts can be incredibly difficult. And, the true advantage is the portability which is second to none -- nothing like packing two small bags (trx and rip trainer) for the trip to the cottage, and the gym comes with me. Enjoy!

My trainer started me on the TRX Rip training and I love the versatility of it. It's nice to have equipment that's not too heavy and easy to transport. The heavier bands are available for purchase (already bought the heavy) to increase workout intensity. The only thing is, when traveling, it would have to go into checked luggage which is understandable. Undecided it I will take it with me this year, but I will definitely snap photos before packing if I do.

Great product, just wish that the band that came with provided a little more resistance. Even for newer clients they have to get a fair distance from the anchor point to get any resistance.

Fantastic!! Works great. Many uses!

got this as a birthday present for hubby who plays senior softball. he is able to use it to better prepare for the season. I use it too for more generic exercises like bicep curls. Very versatile. Doesn't take up much space. Love it

普段のフリーウェイトでは効かせられない体幹の鍛錬に効いているようです。you tubeには、強いゴムを使用して、張力に負けて倒れる痩せた人の動画が投稿されていてますが、強度的には、体重がたぶん70キロ以上ある人なら、もってかれる事はないと思います。普通に真面目なトレーニーの方々には強すぎると言った心配は不要です。スターターセットには、張力の弱いゴムが標準装備ですが、これはさすがに非力な女性や高齢者向けの弱さでした。

Très bien correspond à la photo, c'est un vrai Rip traîner.

Very well-made high-quality solid piece of equipment. Multiple variations to develop many different muscle groups for many different sports. I've only had it just over a week and I'm using it almost daily, I incorporated into my periodic workouts but I often times will hook it into a door frame Just to practice other muscle groups while I'm watching TV or listening to music. Also comes with one of the highest quality door jam attachments I've seen or used as well as an ankle strap! The door jam strap is yellow nylon so it does not mark the door jam additionally what looks like hard black rubber on the left end is actually hard compressed foam which also does not leave any marks on any surface, I even tried holding it in my hand and rubbing it many times up and down side to side on a pure white door and it did nothing no mark whatsoever! Couldn't be more happy with my purchase and I've already ordered the other weight bands. One note of caution, depending on a person's level of fitness you may want to consider Chaison the optional, light band, or if you are in very good shape and are fairly big stature you may want to consider, heavy, extra heavy, or the double extra heavy band options. I have already ordered what TRX refers to as a four pack, which offers the light, heavy, X heavy 2X heavy in one bundle, great deal. Yes I've already ordered it for myself. I am considered in excellent shape for my age however at 5:11 and 155 pounds I am not big in stature and therefore some of the exercises for the smaller muscle groups, I cannot get full range action because the medium band is just too strong, that's why I've ordered the four pack, the light band will allow me to properly get full range of motion and I'm gonna stay confident that eventually I'll get stronger and will be able to use the more heavy duty bands. If you want to improve power and deep core strength and balance you will want this device.

Gör precis det den ska göra. Funkar alldeles utmärkt.

Llego en su empaque original y como siempre trx cumpliendo con mis espectativas.
