What is Functional Training and why is it Important?
On a day to day basis we use functional movement patterns such as pushing, rotating, sitting, hinging, carrying, walking, jumping and so on. These are all natural movements that the muscles in your body carry out hundreds of times a day.
The goal of functional training is to help you move, look and feel fantastic by using multi-joints and multi-muscle exercises. Core strength and stability is another great result of functional training, because when you train you use a variety of muscles at the same time from the upper and lower body, such as elbows, spine, ankles and knees.
This type of training, properly applied, can make everyday activities easier, reduce your risk of injury and improve your quality of life.
