I'm loving it: suspension training.

I think I've mentioned that we have a suspension training system ( the Human Trainer ). If not, now you know. (You should also know that I am not in any way affiliated with the product, have received no endorsements/remuneration/etc.) I like it, and I think it's helped me train without risk of further injury (because I'm not in a static position) and it's incredibly easy to set-up/take-down.
