Huntington Beach, Calif. – November 8, 2010 – TRX Suspension Training, a revolutionary method of leveraged bodyweight exercise, has joined with USA Water Polo to serve as an Official Supplier to the National Governing Body. Born in the U.S. Navy SEALs and developed by Fitness Anywhere, the portable, lightweight trainer will be a welcome addition to the training regimen of the USA Water Polo National Teams as they prepare for upcoming international competitions in 2011.
Easy to set up and weighing less than two pounds, the TRX brings hundreds of different exercises that build power, strength, flexibility, balance, and mobility, while also helping to prevent injury. The portability and flexibility of the TRX will also help the teams stay in peak physical condition when they travel.
As part of the partnership, TRX will provide both the Men's and Women's National Teams with official TRX Suspension Training equipment. USA Water Polo will help to develop a water polo specific workout designed for use with the TRX Suspension Training system along with the production of a short video showcasing the benefits of the product.
"Our Women's National Team Training Staff brought TRX to our attention initially," mentioned Jen Rottenberg, CMO of USA Water Polo, and, she added, "We all believe this is a fantastic product that will add immeasurably to the scope of training elements available to our National Team Program as our athletes prepare for the next round of major international competitions. We are pleased TRX has decided to become an Official Supplier to USA Water Polo."
"We are excited to incorporate the TRX into our National Team workouts.
