You were in shape once. But for whatever reason, now you’re not. Instead of wasting time trying to start from scratch, capitalize on the muscle your body has tucked away for everyday life. You can walk, bend, and lift groceries, right? Don’t let that muscle go to waste.
Functional training is all about equipping your body for normal life movements- and then advancing. It’s the best way to get back in shape fast!
Designed to boost the muscles and joints you use everyday anyway, functional training is practical. It simulates specific movements in rhythmic motions and sets. Everything from resistance bands to kettlebells to battle ropes can be used to do this.
Technically, functional training has been around for centuries. However, it’s only been going by its current name and gaining popularity in modern history. Functional training is definitely gaining momentum.
Functional training is a smart way to exercise, especially when you want to get back in shape fast. One reason it’s smart is that it uses the muscles you already have from living your life, so you're not starting from nothing. By strengthening those muscles, it lays a foundation on which you can build serious muscle.
