A locking rotational suspension training system is described that includes a locking rotational device within which a user can secure a strap to anchor the strap when the device is in a locked mode, and to enable the strap to move freely through the device when the device is in an unlocked mode. The locking rotational device includes a wheel and brakes that clamp around the wheel to prevent wheel rotation and secure a strap there between in a locked mode and that are positioned away from the wheel to allow wheel rotation and permit the strap to move freely in an unlocked mode. Such a locking rotational device enables a user to lock a strap at any point along its length thereby allowing the user to engage in a full range of bodyweight rotational, static, symmetric and asymmetric exercises, as well as weighted “pulley type” exercises.
