Service Description

Functional training is an exercise approach that focuses on movements that replicate real-life activities and improve your ability to perform everyday tasks. Here's a comprehensive breakdown: Core Principles: - Trains movements rather than isolated muscles - Emphasizes multi-joint exercises - Incorporates multiple planes of motion - Challenges balance and stability - Integrates core strength throughout movements Key Components: 1. Movement Patterns - Pushing (like pushing a door) - Pulling (like opening a drawer) - Squatting (like sitting down) - Lunging (like climbing stairs) - Rotating (like looking behind you) - Bending (like picking up objects) - Carrying (like grocery bags) 2. Exercise Examples - Deadlifts with proper form - Squats with various loads - Farmer's carries - Turkish get-ups - Medicine ball throws - Step-ups with weights - Woodchops with resistance Benefits: - Improved daily movement efficiency - Better balance and coordination - Reduced risk of injury - Enhanced core strength - Greater joint stability - Better posture - Increased muscle symmetry - More efficient movement patterns
