Beginner to Intermediate TRX Full-body Workout

Here's a sample TRX class that I put one of my morning bootcamps through. If you're looking for a place to start with TRX training, this is a pretty good place. There are a couple of slightly more advanced movements [Alligators, Clock Press, TRX Plank (pushup position)], but even a relatively new trainee can make a good, safe effort at it.
