A|wear HQ’s Obsession… TRX

January 11th, 2012

Here in A|wear HQ we are partial to New Year’s resolutions around fitness but they usually fall by the wayside mid January! Here are some of the reslutions we made for ourselves in A|wear HQ in the last week…

Move more was one of the major resolutions we wanted to keep… Especially after couch potato Christmas holidays! Here is one fitness resolution we had to share with you because it would be selfish to keep it to ourselves…

TRX… more than a craze!

It may have a celebrity following (Jennifer Lopez, Pink, Gwen Stefani, Ben Affleck and Toby Maguire to name a few…) but most importantly it gets results ASAP!

We nabbed Yvonne from Stringer Fitness to get the details…

 What is TRX ?

“TRX suspension training is all about the core, it is a  portable most versatile piece of equipment  around. It  weighs around  2lb , fits in any sports bag and has two handles . It can be done indoors or outdoors. TRX is a type of training that uses gravity and your own body weight to build strength, power, balance co-ordination & core strength.”

 What are the benefits?

There are so many benefits and the list actually goes on and on, a few of my favorites are the fact that it strengthens the core, Suspension training  body weight exercise is designed to intentionally displace your centre of gravity, activating the core musculature during every exercise to stabilize and balance the body in a truly functional way . Another benefit is the amount of pulling exercises. Pulling exercises allows you to train muscles involved in pulling (back, biceps, rear delts, traps, forearms & hamstrings. This allows us to work on our entire posterior chain.

 

To summarize… a flat tummy and toned arms! That’s the bikini check list checked off!

Here in A|wear HQ we LOVE music… almost as much as we love fashion… almost! And what we really love is a great girlband! Top of our playlist of late has been a fabulous girlband who we think are going to be HUGE and we can’t keep them our secret anymore… we think our fans will LOVE them as much as us! This gorgeous AND talented group is Fanfair! Not only are they all amazing singers and beautiful… they have an Irish USP… the gorgeous Roberta! (It’s not secret we are a little biased!)

About Fanfair…

 "Every once in a while, a band comes along that seems so right – so perfectly of the moment – it’s hard to believe they don’t already exist. But unbelievably, Fanfair have only been together for a mere matter of months and already the chemistry between them sizzles. With such combined musical talent between them, it was no surprise the band’s sound fell into place almost as soon as they got together. Huge fans of stylish electro and sophisticated intelligent pop, Fanfair’s striking sound is inspired by the likes of The Cardigans, Robyn and Katy Perry, but sounds completely unique; an all-new sound for a new decade. A guaranteed blast of fresh air for the charts, it takes the girl band formula and turns it on its head.” Comprising of Aimee, Anara, Jessica and Roberta, the girls were personally chosen by The Wanted to support them on their summer live shows .Fanfair have had an incredible start; performing to sell out crowds, partnering with London Irish and recording with world class producer Arnthor Birgisson (J.Lo, Britney, Enrique, Janet Jackson).
