- Paul and Elizabeth, both fitness experts, explain why TRX Freestyle offers a unique approach to fitness.
- TRX combines many different types of exercises. Learn about why TRX is like a multitool, and why having a balanced and fit lifestyle takes more than just one modality. Focusing on just yoga, cardio, strength or any single modality is not enough.

- "Freestyle" comes from the idea that TRX straps incorporate a variety of modalities.

- Find out why one having someone hold you accountable is key to a successful fitness journey.
