Our style of training is called Functional Training (FT)
The Science behind FT
1. Creating a sound fitness foundation
FT creates a strong foundation on which to build, starting low and moving on to heavier weights, more sets, more exercises and more intensity as time goes on. This is crucial aspect of training, because if you start off using too much weight, doing too many sets or exercises, or tackling a high intensity routine on a weak foundation you will be more prone to muscle imbalances and overuse injuries. This type of training applies to everything we do, from bending and twisting while unloading the dish washer to playing major league sports.
2. Preventing injuries and building to optimum performance
Building a strong foundation through FT prevents muscle imbalances and makes us perform at the optimum level. Our tendons, ligaments, joints and muscles have thousands of receptors and when we try to lift heavy weights, cut fast, jump high and sprint our central nervous system (CNS) sends impulses to all of these receptors. If the CNS receives any negative feedback from these receptors, it puts a governor on the corresponding muscle groups and slows the system down to prevent injury.
3. Workouts that maximize the way our muscles work
FT uses a variety of exercises to achieve maximum results. Why work 1-3 muscles at a time with traditional exercises when you can use 300+ muscles at a time with FT. This type of workout is far superior to than just using stationary weight equipment at a gym. Our muscles work five different ways; agonists, antagonists, synergists, stabilizers and neutralizers. Using only uniplaner weight machines does not allow our muscles to work properly and can lead to muscle imbalances and overuse injuries. Functional Training mimics the way our bodies are designed to work: on multiple planes, in multiple directions, and at different speeds all at the same time.
4. Building core strength and balance
whether you're an accomplished athlete or just starting to think about getting into shape, a sound foundation of core strength and balance are the keys to success. Think about this: when you are pushing a lawnmower, vacuum cleaner, a stroller, or a wagon you don’t have any type of support behind you for leverage or stability. You have to rely on your core strength and balance to do the work, and steadily increasing core strength and balance is exactly what Functional Training does for you.
Workout description:
We use stability balls, dumbbells, machines, bands, medicine balls, ladder drills, cone drills, plyometric stations, and many more. This class is designed to get serious athletes in great shape as well as the un-fit. We show everyone a hard and easy version of each exercise, you choose according to your fitness level. If you’re looking to have fun while getting in the best shape of your life and you don’t have any serious limitations this class is for you.
