Benefits of Functional Exercise Training at Fitness One Because movement matters! Our bodies are designed to move, not to sit slumped over a computer all day. Functional training focuses on training movement patterns rather than isolating individual muscles. If you spend most of your working day sat down in the office, sitting on the chest press machine at the gym is probably counter productive. The Fitness One system is based on exercises that improve the bodies ability to function in all planes of movement. Sure the workouts are tough, but trying to make you sick or overworked like in many bootcamps or cross training classes is definitely not the goal. Here are a few reasons why Fitness One functional training is a great choice for your workouts, and why we continue to learn and develop the system for all of us. Functional training helps to correct bad posture and muscle imbalances caused by the daily grind, stressful jobs and hectic lifestyles. Functional training provides fantastic fat burning workouts, by using full body exercises that improve strength, endurance and boost metabolism, not wasting a minute of your session. It develops strong lean and ripped bodies, look at gymnasts at the Olympics, they are constantly training movement patterns and lifting their own bodyweight, not doing just bicep curls and looking at themselves in the mirror :) Every session includes warmup, mobility, core stability, balance and strength training principles to keep your body constantly challenged in all areas of a strong healthy and vibrant body. Functional training is essential for sport specific conditioning. It enhances the relationship between the nervous and musculoskeletal system to provide quick, reactive, and powerful movement patterns that are utilised in your chosen sport. In Functional training every exercise involves core activation, teaching the core to stabilise the spine against external force, throughout an array of different movement patterns and body positions. Therefore mimicking the demand placed upon the core and spine in our every day tasks and recreational activities. Sorry everyone, but crunches just don’t cut it! Think of the TRX...Nearly every exercise forces you to utilize the core...Kickboxing gets great cardio but also places resistance on the muscles as you rotate, stabilize and utilize all limbs moving in space...Out circuits balance all muscle groups for the perfect symetry during a workout...Each exercise is emphasized to do with perfect from first, not speed so the risk of injury is reduced and the workouts are safe and fun. There are many reasons we feel Fitness One and the Functional Training System we use and continue to develop is the best choice for fitness, one of which also being the sense of community and team work all of our members give each other and new members as they come through the door. We see and appreciate how our members make new people feel welcome and motivate them! The ultimate reason? Results. You want them, we want to provide them.
