What to expect in a functional fitness class
Pre-session warm-up
We encourage you to arrive up to 15 mins early and provide foam rollers and massage balls and teach you how to do your own soft tissue and myofascial release work & use this time to get in tune with how your body feels on the day.
Dynamic mobility warm up
Which will improve range of movement, promote blood flow and mobilise your joints ready for action.
Skill development & practice
A chance to learn new skills and work on your technique before we get into the main body of the session.
Main session
Having practiced the movements, go for it in the main body of the session, working to the clock or sometimes with a partner, push yourself whilst being coached to improve your technique.
Core conditioning
Focusing on conditioning of the trunk through 360 degrees using isometric holds and flexion / extension through a full range.
What is Functional Fitness?
Functional Fitness is a style of training in which the aim is to improve your strength, endurance and mobility so that you feel capable of taking on the challenges that life throws at you.
These sorts of activities can involve simple things like squatting up and down, carrying weights to mimic heavy bags, or bending down to lift up weights at different angles to give you confidence to pick things up – like one end of your sofa when moving home or your children when they need a hug. Functional fitness training will also help you perform better at the physical hobbies you enjoy, like sports, running, water sports, rock climbing, DIY and gardening.
Because of the focus of functional fitness training, functional exercises can generally be mapped over to similar day to day movements. For example, standing up from a sitting position is trained using squat movements.
In my opinion, functionality places greater emphasis than ever before upon balance & coordination while simultaneously improving strength and range of motion-skills which will help us perform better throughout our lives – whether at home with chores such as gardening or laundry; or working out with weights without injuring ourselves.
