The Advantages of Functional Training

Functional Training is great for workouts because allows for more of the everyday movements of the human body and sports-specific training to be involved in a workout. In addition to building overall strength and a strong core, significant improvements in balance, stability and coordination are principle benefits of the unrestricted motion of functional training.

• Functional training builds a strong core by engaging more than one muscle and often more than one joint for isolateral resistance training (upper and lower body).
• Functional training improves balance, stability and coordination, and helps to teach your muscles to work together and work equally the way you use them in everyday life activities.
• Functional training improves overall strength by recruiting stabilizers and core muscles to build true overall strength.
• Functional training helps users of all sizes and fitness levels customize their workouts and define their own motion path to find the movement that is comfortable for them.
