Players will work daily on individualised programmes with the goals of making key athletic movements more efficient and the body more resilient to the risk of injury. We have had great results using the TRX Suspension Trainer and TRX RIP Trainer in both our high performance and injury prevention programmes. We are excited about building a strong relationship with TRX in the future.”

Randy Hetrick, CEO and creator of the TRX Suspension Trainer, added: “TRX is proud to partner with Manchester City and we are excited to support their training needs with our ‘triple threat’ of product, education and programming. In just a few short years, TRX Training has become the choice of professional athletes across the world, in sports as diverse at football, rugby, MMA, basketball, triathlon, tennis and athletics. We’re excited to watch them compete at such a high level in the most prestigious football league in the world.”
