Is the TRX suspension system really that much better than lets say the WOSS system?

Business: Personal TrainingTRXTRX Suspension TrainerEquipment

I just got one of the WOSS suspension systems and I got just as good a workout as I did when I used the TRX system at a local gym.

WOSS, TRX, OM GYM, Blast Straps, Gym Rings, etc. are a variety of the same thing. Suspention training is suspention training. I've Personally decided to use the Jungle Gym XT because of the rigid cradles (comfort thing) and separated individual straps (allowing for more width variety).

I don't know what the WOSS system is but blast straps and the jungle gym for over $100 less is just as good. A suspension trainer is a suspension trainer its all about the programming.

I bought an OM GYM at about the time the TRX came out. I use it every day; it is functionally like the TRX but even has an additional sling that allows for more movements.

A strap with a handle is just that - whatever you call it.

Like any other exercise tool or implement, it's all about how you use them. You get out of it what you put into it! For similar pieces of equipment (e.g. treadmills made by different manufacturers, suspension trainers, stability balls etc.) the exercise "concepts" are the same.

Hi Robert, TRX is the original Suspension Training System. We're a training company offering innovative gear, expert programming, and industry leading education. None of our competitors come close to this. Hope you give us another try!

While TRX may be more expensive, they back up their product with consistent education and program design. I have called and emailed them on numerous occasions and the customer service has been outstanding.

I am a firm believer in the importance of maintaining good relations with customers. TRX has done this consistently with me and that is why they get my vote every time.
