The Total Fitheads hometown is opening up. They're loosening restrictions and reopening public gyms is a part of it! Will Ali and Max continue working out at home? Is it TRX and garage gym for the rest of their days? Or do they miss their big box gyms too much. Will they return to public gyms with cable machines, assisted pull ups, saunas, showers...? Is it worth the drive?!

Adam, the TRX Traveller, is a bodybuilder that never uses weights, cable machines or any equipment besides a couple straps with handles.

He has a bunch of training programs to help you ditch the gym too: TRX Physique Sculptor, TRX Total Body Transformation Program, TRX Lean and Sculpt Stack, TRX Beach Body Program, TRX Full Body Intensity, TRX Muscle & Size Stack. https://trxtraveller.com
