Description: W3/D3 ARROW TRX STRENGTH & STABILITY CIRCUIT

WEEK 3 UPDATE – We’re flipping the script and working UP in reps this week.  Does it feel different at the end of each round versus the first two weeks?

EQUIPMENT: TRX Suspension Trainer, Kettlebell/Dumbbell

On DAY 3 we take it back to the gym for a full-body workout that will challenge your balance, strength, core stability…and mental fortitude.

T3 TIP: The TRX is all about challenging your core strength, but if you feel the extra layer of instability is compromising your form, work your way up to it (remember – safety above progression). Modify by planting both feet on the ground (ie. not using the TRX) OR by focusing on the TRX movement without weight (ie. not using the KB/DB). If you don’t have a TRX, a great substitute is a martial arts belt (test before using!) or a playground swing.

Give it a go and have fun! Tag me on Instagram @T3Athletics #ArrowWorkoutChallenge and let me know how you did!

This is a full body dynamic warm-up that will get you moving in all planes of motion. Work through each exercise in a fluid tempo. This will get your blood moving and muscles warm for the work ahead.

- Gradually increase the depth and twist of each movement on each rep
- Both Sides = 1 Rep

T3 Warm-Up – Crescent Lunge Flow

- Keep a slight bend in your knees on extension to protect your joints

T3 Warm-Up – Toe Squat Holds

- Keep your hips and shoulders square and increase the depth of each lunge and curtsy on each rep
- Both Sides = 1 Rep

T3 Warm-Up – Lateral Lunge to Curtsy Lunge

- Walk your hands out and establish a proper plank position before moving into toe taps; return to this strong plank position after each toe touch
- Drop your head to look at your feet with each toe touch to protect your neck

T3 Warm-Up – Spiderman Toe Touch

- Focus on balance! To support your non-standing foot from touching the ground, fire your core and standing glute and keep a slight bend in the standing knee
- Both Sides = 1 Rep

T3 Warm-Up – Single Leg Walk Out

T3 Daily Mobility Warm-Up

- Keep core active and focus on keeping hips in line with shoulders
- If you’re still working towards full TRX Mountain Climbers, let your free foot plant on the forward movement of the mountain climb to give your core additional support

TRX Mountain Climbers

- As you push up into a high plank starting position, keep wrists under shoulders, core fired, hips in line with your shoulders
- If you’re still working towards full TRX Push-Ups, drop your free foot or knee to the ground to give your core additional support

TRX Push-Ups

- Starting position one foot in cradle, centred underneath the anchor point, hips square and pointed forward
- As you drive the suspended knee back, maintain a 90 degree bend in the front knee
- If your balance is a issue today, drop your weights (it's still challenging!)

TRX Kettlebell Lunge

- Hinge forward at the hips to bring the upper body to a 45 degree angle, keeping spine neutral and core fired
- When rowing, squeeze the back shoulders together and lead the movement with the elbow

TRX Bent Over Rows

- Sprawl back into one legged plank position to start, keeping the suspended foot flexed in the cradle
- Stay plank strong throughout the movement, core firing the entire time to maintain stability

It’s one of the most challenging workouts that I’ve done, but it was a lot of fun, excited for the rest of the program!

Anna

Was confusing if should do 3 reps per side or switch at the 30 second mark between exercises. Additionally would be great if a cool down was recommended

This is an amazing set that is so challenging and effective.  Thank you!!

Michael

Crushed it, man. I do a lot of work with suspension trainers regularly, so that made it a bit easier. Little bit of a different tempo to this workout, but nonetheless, a good workout all-in-all.

It was great! Much better than last week. Took me far less time than it did last week, mostly because I felt conditioned and battle-tested, so to speak. The grind never stops ✊🏼

Love this workout, Tom! Resistance bands, in general, are an awesome workout, but this one, in particular, is a lot of fun. Makes ya feel like a superhero 😅 haha

W2/D2 ARROW RESISTANCE BAND WORKOUT

Challenging and a great sweat workout. I noticed I was able to handle it better than last time because my body has started to adjust to the intensity of these workouts. Thanks, Tom! 👌🏼
