Functional Body is designed for the athlete in mind, yet this is a training program that can benefit anyone! Why? Because improving your overall health & fitness is a goal that everyone can strive for! The term “functional fitness” basically promotes that strength training & muscle memory built during workouts will translate into everyday life. The workouts in this program require the use of multiple muscle groups simultaneously, so they can work together for daily activities & improved strength, mobility, & balance. Strength, mobility, & balance are essential when it comes to accomplishing basic daily tasks like carrying a heavy load of laundry up the stairs or lifting a baby out of a car seat. Doing exercises that incorporate these components, not only improves your overall fitness but also increases our ability to live a higher quality of life. Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain muscle, or improve your overall health & fitness, this performance style of training is for you! Workouts in this program can be scaled up or down depending on your skill level. You’ll utilize a combination of exercises using: bodyweight movements, barbells, boxes, medicine balls, kettlebells, dumbbells, cardio machines & more.
