  1. Suspension Training TRX School Curriculum Grades K-12

  2. Purpose: COMBAT Obesity Trends The percentage of children aged 6–11 years in the United States who were obese increased from 7% in 1980 to nearly 18% in 2010. Similarly, the percentage of adolescents aged 12–19 years who were obese increased from 5% to 18% over the same period.1, 2 (CDC)

  3. Purpose: COMBAT Obesity Trends Percentage of high school students who were obese*- selected U.S. states, Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 2011

  4. DEFINITION: TRX SUSPENSION TRAINING “A form of body weight resistance training that uses gravity to alter stability allowing the person to simultaneously build strength, balance,flexibilityand core stability.”

  5. 3 principles of progression • Vector Resistance Principle • Applies mainly to all standing exercises • Changing your body position and moving your center of gravity outside your base of support to change the exercise resistance • Pendulum Principle • Applies mainly to all ground-based exercises • Moving your body in a supine or prone position away or toward from the anchor point to work more or less against gravity, changing the exercise resistance

  6. 3 principles of progression • Stability Principle • Relationship between your center of gravity and base of support • Stability is maximized with large base of support and the center of gravity is positioned in the middle of that base TRX offers OVER 300 EXERCISES!

  7. WHY TRX? • “Research-based exercises to aid MVPA!”

  8. WHY TRX? • “Adaptable to meet all individual fitness levels!”

  9. WHY TRX? • “Portable for physical activity anywhere!”

  10. WHY TRX? • “Unique, creative, and fun!”

  11. WHY TRX? • “Functional for everyday living!” Improves POSTURE/FLEXIBILITY after hours of sitting during class time, and heavy backpack use!

  12. WHY TRX? • “Accessible to entire school community!” TEACHERS use of TRX during free time!

  13. WHY TRX? • “Cost-effective equipment and set-up!” GREEN-FRIENDLY fitness with TRX!

  14. NASPETRX • TRX complements all 5 NASPE Standards to develop physically literate individuals! • TRX enhances the knowledge, skills and confidence to enjoy a lifetime of healthful physical activity! • TRX was recently featured on the cover of Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators!

  15. How TRX? • A true FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT modality of exercise simultaneously incorporating strength, balance, flexibility and core stability that compliments life and sport! • EDUCATION of the basic principles and applied science behind body weight resistance training using TRX Suspension Training!

  16. HOW TRX? • A FUN way to improve and maintain a healthful level of physical fitness! • A REALISTIC tool, education and programming to promote long-term health and wellness benefits!

  17. NASPE TRX • NASPE Standard 1 – The physically literate individual • demonstrates competency in a variety of motor skills and • movement patterns. • TRX Complement 1 – True functional exercise • that improves the way we move during daily life, based • upon our six fundamental movements (i.e. push, pull, • squat, lunge, step, rotate). TRX also maximizes core • function by altering the body’s stability during exercise.

  18. NASPE TRX • NASPE Standard 2 – The physically literate individual • applies knowledge of concepts, principles, strategies and • tactics related to movement and performance. • TRX Complement 2 –TRX is a modality of strength • training that increases understanding of the basic • fundamentals of strength training (i.e. increasing • performance, strength, and decreasing injury).

  19. NASPE TRX • NASPE Standard 3 – The physically literate individual • applies knowledge and skills to achieve and maintain a • health-enhancing level of physical activity and fitness. • TRX Complement 3 –TRX is adaptable for all • fitness levels, and through setting individual goals it allows • participants to achieve a health-enhanced level of fitness.

  20. NASPE TRX • NASPE Standard 4 – The physically literate individual • exhibits responsible personal and social behavior that • respects self and others. • TRX Complement 4 – TRX provides an safe environment • that promotes students to exercise at their own appropriate • intensity level. TRX programming allows students to • participate in group activity and encourage one another’s • performance.

  21. NASPE TRX • NASPE Standard 5 – The physically literate individual • recognizes the value of physical activity for health, enjoy- • ment, challenge, self-expression and/or social • interaction. • TRX Complement 5 – TRX programming is adaptable • for students of all fitness levels producing an increase of • self-efficacy, social interaction and encouragesan • independent, physically active and healthy lifestyle.

  22. IMPLEMENTING TRX • TRX School Curriculum (K-12) includes… • Breakdown of how TRX complements NASPE • TRX exercises that correlate to the specific standards-based outcome benchmarks assigned to every grade • Block plans for every grade accompanied by example lesson plans for different grade levels

  23. IMPLEMENTING TRX • TRX School Curriculum (K-12) includes… • Glossary of terms and definitions • A complete photo library for all exercises and grade specific introductions • Scalable high school workout models focusing on the FITT principle specifically tailored towards strength, conditioning (CV), flexibility and HIIT

  24. Applying TRX • Working under conditions… • We understand that applying TRX will be an addition to one’s regular curriculum. The intention is to offer a systematic approach to implement TRX into the P.E. classroom while minimizing stress and maximizing effectiveness. • TRX programming is not intended to take a full class period, but rather be implemented in sections taking as little as 10 minutes of class time.

  25. WRSD TRX • Wachusett Regional School District (MA) • Largest regional (land area) district in state • 5 towns, 13 schools total (K-12) • 2010 Carol M. White PEP Award Winner • Fitness- based goals to maximize MVPA, fitness levels (FitnessGram), and student engagement • Teachers were highly interested in TRX product to improve strength and conditioning

  26. WRSD TRX • Each school purchased/received… • 16 TRX Suspension Trainers • 4 TRX Multi-Mountswith installation • 2 TRX Professional Trainings • Krystal Say (Senior Instructor, TRX) • Teachers were highly impressed with trainings! • Krystal Say hired spring 2013 to write/oversee TRX School Curriculum (K-12)!

  27. WRSD TRX • 2013-2014 Pilot Year… • Curriculum distributed with training on Sept. 18 • Follow-up training during full professional development date on Nov. 12 • On-going consulting and support via Krystal! • Current TRX Teaching Methods & Programming • Station-based model, video analysis, AppleTV- apps • Core activity, warm-up, before/after school clubs
