1.5英寸，额定张力为

1250磅的尼龙绳子，长度范围从

6英尺调整至

12英尺，橡胶把手更适应双手抓缚或是双脚悬挂等地面训练动作，扣锁由曾用于卡宾枪的材料制成，且易于调整，其自用不到

2磅，1分钟就能悬挂妥当，装在袋子里便于携带到任何地方，可固定在单杠上或卡在门缝里，或系在树枝上，适合绝大多数的训练环境，如果加上哑铃或健身球一起锻炼，可增加更高阶的难度。

ꢀꢀ悬挂训练：用练习者自身体重做负重，能够允许肌肉在多个平面上做运动，同时保证更多的肌肉和关节参与，能够打造更加结实的肌肉，稳定灵活的关节，坚固的核心力量和正确的体态，帮助在任何运动项目上获得更佳的运动表现，TRX还是运动康复的重要手段之一TRX动作解读：ꢀꢀ增加阻力：1.身体角度越大，阻力越大

48小时内复习；三是一周之后脑突触发生永久性变化。根据人在学习过程中这一生理变化，采用复习加强记忆就显得特别重要了。如果我们能够在学习的内容即将忘记时进行复习，那么复习的效果最好，效率也最高。著名的心理学家艾宾浩斯通过实验发现了人的记忆与遗忘规律。实验证明：在学习仅过了

20分钟后，就忘记记忆内容的

42%，1天后忘却量已经达到了

66%，到了第

31天，忘却量高达79%。他根据实验结果，画成了著名的遗忘曲线。并表明遗忘的规律是“先快后慢”。这条规律提示我们，—定要尽早、及时地对所学知识进行复习，以便在知识还在大脑内时就加深印记，否则大脑中已经没有痕迹了，只能再费精力重学。合理安排复习时间特别重要并且必要，制定复习计划，严格按精英特计划执行，并力求形成习惯，是我们每一位学生都应该力求努力做到。ꢀ我们为什么要复习呢？因为我们记忆效果没有那么好，不可能过目不忘，所以需要重复、增强记忆。同时，复习的进展也有利于学习效率的提高。ꢀꢀꢀ四、做作业的科学方法这里有七种做作业的技巧：ꢀꢀ1、先复习后做作业。复习是做好作业的关键，只有复习得好，作业才能做得好。做作业前先把老师这一节课所讲的内容认真地看一看，弄清楚基本原理和概念后再去做作业，作业才能做得既快又好。ꢀꢀ2、认真审题。

做作业最关键的—步就是审题，连题都判断错了，作业内容就全错了。首先第—步要弄清楚题目的内容，所给的条件，什么要求，需要联系哪些知识等等；其次是考虑好解题思路、方法、步骤，要善于把—道题分成几部分，化大为小、化难为易、分清其中的已知和未知，弄清各部分的联系，设计好整个解题步骤，—定要让自己做到不明白题意不做题，不清楚方法步骤不下笔。ꢀꢀ3、细心的做题。

做题是表达思路的全过程，这个过程要求既动脑、又动手。做题的关键是要保证“规范”、“准确”。要做到这两点就要求学生认真的抄好题，书写格式必须正确、规范，严格按照各类题的解题要求，仔细演算解题的每—步，得出正确的结果。只有平时做题认真细致，步骤完整，思路正确，表达严密，准确无误，考试时才能按照这种良好的习惯进行ꢀꢀ五、重视错题积累在学习的过程中，同学们可能遇到过一错再错的现象究其原因，多数是由于在学习中不求甚解，不注意总结积累所致。那么，该怎么办呢？实践证明，自编一本“易错题集”是避免做题一错再错的最好办法。错题本的复习方法：1、每周把该周错题本中记录的题目快速浏览一遍；2、每月把该月错题本中记录的题目再快速浏览一遍；3、每个季度把错题本中三个月记录的题目再快速浏览一遍；4、大考前把该错题本中的所有题目认真复习一遍，确保题不二错↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧－￥¾½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧－￥¾½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜≧ɑ←‰ɡ©≥←‰®½¼↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧－￥¾½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜↓×√㎜↓←②￥←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧－￥¾½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜↓×√㎜↓←②￥←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼←‰®½¼↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®↓←≠¥θ￥®÷㎝½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜②￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧￥◎…ɡ©≥≧ɑ←‰®ɡ©≥≧－￥¾½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜￥＄§¦β↓×√㎜½¼￥＄§¦β↓×√精编资料
