Lets get to it and go through the top 10 suspension trainers list.

1. TRX Go Suspension Training Kit

The first suspension trainer that we are going to look at today, is the TRX Go. For those that do not know, TRX is the leading brand when it comes to suspension training thanks to founding member Randy Hetrick.

The TRX can be considered the high model of bodyweight straps but the TRX Go it self is much lower in price than all the other suspension training straps from TRX. This is why we have chosen this particular straps as our first choice. Coming in a lot cheaper than the Basic Kit, Force Tactical and Pro, the go maintains the high standards offered by this world known brand.

Although it does not come with all the bells and whistles as the above mentioned straps, it is excellent if you want a high quality kit for a good price. The straps itself are 1 inch in width where others from this brand is 2 inches thick. None the less the Go is perfect for personal use or if you need a smaller kit that is more portable to fit in your bag to take with you where ever you go.

2. WOSS Attack Trainer

WOSS is a US brand that is built using 1st grade military webbing. These suspension trainers are strong and durable and unlike many other kits such as the TRX, it does not come with any flashy objects. Its more like your no-nonsense suspension trainer. What you do get is great quality with excellent working pieces.

The price of these straps make it our second choice as well as the preferred choice of straps. The WOSS Attack is the PRO of the WOSS family and is suitable for personal and gym use.

Each handle is made with 3/8″ black cord, 1-3/8″ Rubber Sleeve Handle and with a 1-1/2″ wide soft foot loop for easy and comfortable support.

3. GYMSTUFF G-Strap Pro Home Gym Fitness Trainer

If you are thinking about the $200 plus TRX straps, you may want to consider the Gymstuff G-Strap Pro suspension fitness training. We found these to be very comparable to the TRX brand and at the fraction of the price, makes it our third choice.

The quality is excellent and US made as well. Gymstuff has been supplying schools and community centers with equipment for many years so their quality is up to standard. One of the unique features about the Gymstuff G-Strap is the locking carabiners which includes a wrench.

4. TRX Force Tactical Suspension Kit

The TRX Force or Tactical is a great product and well worth the money, if you use it. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much more you really get for the higher cost.

Even though it looks heavy duty it is one of the lightest and strongest suspension straps on the market. The handles are a newer style which are much easier to hold when you well into your workout and have sweaty hands. It comes with DVDs as well as workout wall posters. It includes the extension strap for mounting to higher points. The guidebook is very high quality and durable. The compact size makes it very easy to transport.

Although this is the most expensive straps in our top 10 list, it is an excellent upgrade if you are looking for at the TRX brand. This can be used for personal and professionals at the gym. The color is cool and very military looking. I prefer it to the more flashier yellow.

Includes:

• TRX Tactical Straps
• TRX Suspension Anchor
• TRX Door Anchor
• TRX Xtender
• TRX FORCE Super App: Includes the 12-week Tactical conditioning program.
• TRX Tactical Mesh Bag

Colors available: Military brown

Customer rating: 4.5/5

Cons: The high price and flimsy mesh bag. Feels like the bag will not hold much

5. Emerge EX2 Pro Suspension Trainer

The Emerge EX2 workout straps have been a good seller recently and with its well constructed webbing and affordable price shows why its a popular choice.

Unlike the TRX Go and WOSS trainers, the EX2 offers a thicker strap at 1.5 inches. It also comes with a lifetime guarantee. This heavy duty strap makes it a good choice for gyms at a lower cost than the TRX pro.

The price definitely makes this suspension trainer very attractive and rivals the TRX pro suspension straps so this is a good option if you want to save on the more expensive brand.

Includes:

• Emerge EX2 Suspension Trainer
• Door anchor
• Suspension anchor extender
• Free content

6. WOSS 3000 Equalizer Trainer

I reviewed the WOSS 3000 Equalizer and did a comparison with the TRX Home Kit and the WOSS 3000 gets a lot of love as it an excellent choice for those that may be on a budget.

All WOSS products are made in the USA with high quality grade military webbing. The 3000 Equalizer is great as a second set of straps that you can take with you where ever you go. The door anchor and suspension anchor is convenient for setting up at home or out site a local park.

WOSS offer a variety of colors to their range which sets them apart from other brands.

7. Boss Fitness Suspension Trainer

I consider the Boss Fitness trainer as a medium duty suspension straps. Best for personal use and not really intended for gyms and professionals. The carabiners are made from zinc alloy and strongest of the lot. A good suspension trainer overall available in a nice variety of colors and affordable price puts these straps at number 7.

It would not be my first choice but it you are familiar with Boss Fitness products, you know what you are getting in terms of quality.

Includes:

• Boss Fitness Suspension Trainer
• Mesh carry bag
• Premium Door Anchor
• Extension Attachment Anchor

Suspension Trainers Buyer’s Guide

Most of the suspension trainers mentioned above in our top 10 list are very similar in characteristics such as look and feel. Some come with workouts as a bundle and others don’t. They all offer door anchors and suspension extender straps which is a must so that you can use your door or a wall or ceiling mount. One of the key features of the suspension straps are the handles.

Rubber vs Foam – Which is best for you?

I personally prefer foam covered handles as I find them more comfortable but they do tend to get wet when you are sweating and well into your workout. This does affect your grip and may hinder your performance some what. Not a major ordeal, but something to consider.

Rubber handles offer much better grip and do not get affected when wet.

Anchor options: The more options there are the better as this gives you a wide variety of places that you can workout

Adjustable Buckles: When you are working out, you will be adjusting the height of the straps as you go through your routine. You will want easy and quick adjustments so that you are not wasting time.

Foot Cradles: These are loops under handles where by you can place your feet when doing exercises that requires this.

Straps: The straps are a key component of every suspension trainer. Strong military grade webbing are best as they are stronger and more durable. The thicker the strap, the better they are for gym use if you are a personal and fitness trainer.
