Default TRX Squat Suit

My coach suggested that I get an Inzer TRX squat suit for nationals coming up.

The problem is I can't find it on there site or anywhere for that matter. The most a google search gives me is a confirmation that the suit actually exist. Anyone know where I can find one of these?

Do I just need to call inzer or find some magazine or something?

It exists. Inzer just has one of the worst websites, ever. If you call them directly they will sell you a trx. Irongladiators is good.

As for the suit, its pretty decent. I would put it just below a titan centurion. I know my girlfriend has used both and gets more out of the titan. The Inzer, however, is still a really good singleply suit.

here is some info on the titan as well.

Awesome. Thanks. I found it on another site right after I posted the question but that one just asked for a size and this one asks for multiple measurements so I feel that will be better since I have somewhat odd measurements.

I have looked into the Centurion before, I just have concerns about switching over to titan right before nationals when I have lifted in inzer so long (ragex and hardcore are what I use now).

I have 3 more years of eligibility after this one, so I might try and make the switch sometime in the fall and try it out just to see how it works for me.

I have a quick question on measurements though. Right now I am weighing in at a solid 175 but my coach tells me I "want to live at 184" to be at the top of my weight class. I am planning on packing on as much weight as possible by the end of March so do you think I should round my measurements up a bit to give me room to grow or just put them in as they are now?

Get the size that is the correct fit now, suits stretch a bit anyway. A tight suit is harder to use, but you will get more pounds out of it.

The trx is a good suit and you cant go wrong with it (im guessing you are lifting usapl or uspf?). But I wouldn't worry about switching brands. The suit is going to be so different it wont matter.

For singleply i think titan stuff is generally a little better.. for multiply, inzer may have the edge.

Yes I am USAPL.

I have heard a ton of good things about titan. Many people on our team talk about how they just fit better. I've seen a bunch of them rip though and that kinda scares me.

I definitely want to try out a katata and a centurion though, but like I said too close. Switching brands at this point at a minimum would get into my head.

Thanks for the advice though. I will probably be asking you a bunch of titan questions come April.

just to clarify your statement for those who don't know...

inzer and iron gladiators are not owned or affiliated. IG is run by Brent Mikesell, and they are just a carrier of inzer products. i've only heard good things about IG and Mikesell (my buddy used to lift with him), not so much about Inzer.

i don't want to sound like i'm correcting you Frank. I just thought that people might mistake your post in saying that they are affiliated, and i don't want to have IGs name run through the mud by doing so.

The TRX is a good suit.

You can get it from www.houseofpain.com, and just choose your size, you don't have to enter a thousand bullshit measurements like you do on irongladiators.

yeah the measurements at IG are just for them to pick the correct sized suit I think. you can order a specific size though.

Yea, gotta email them though, it's annoying if you know what size you want.
