Suspension Trainer Side Bridge
Description
The suspension trainer side bridge is an advanced side plank variation with one foot suspended in a TRX cradle. The lifter holds a side plank position while the suspended foot stays in the cradle. The instability creates a brutal oblique and shoulder challenge.
