Synergy Athletics

 

Have you ever wondered what EXACTLY is "functional training"

and "functional exercise?"

 

I'm sure most of you have heard those terms thrown around by a

lot of trainers over the last few years. 

 

A month ago I was in a discussion with a few other trainers and

one exclaimed "I hate functional.'  It doesn't mean what half the

people think it means!"

 

Before you make a decision on "Functional Exercise" read this

post!

Post 1 - What EXACTLY is Functional Training?

--------------------------------------------

 

==> This seriously may be the most informative post I have EVER

put up on Synergy.

 

I'm very excited to hear your comments, as there is a lot of research

put into getting multiple perspectives on Functional Training.

There has already been 16 comments since I posted it last night. 

 

READ THE COMMENTS!  <==== There is a pdf in there that is

a must read.

 

This is Part I in a series in which I hope to be explaining how I

develop programs, exercise selection, etc.  However to get that

far, I need at least 25 comments on Functional Training!

 

Stay Strong,

 

Joe

 

PS.  I hate to lose my other post in the importance of the Functional

Training discussion and this is one of the most impressive feats of strength

I have ever seen - Andrew Durniat DOMINATING a 96 lb kettle bell.
