Team Reach Training
Functional TrainingYou're a dad. You're busy. We understand. But, that doesn't mean you have to have a dad bod and lose your ability to perform and play with your kids.
Our busy dad program brings something new to the functional training world. Why? It's tailored to the functional needs of dads. You need to be able to run, hike, jump, and crawl with your kids. You need to model for your children what a strong, capable dad looks like. Well, here's your program.
There are three days of functional strength and conditioning work, but we have taken it a step further: included nightly mobility work.
You can train everyday, but if you don't work on your mobility and flexibility, you won't be able to jump on the trampoline, crawl on the ground, and chase your kids without fear of getting hurt. So, take the time to work on yourself in the evenings. You and your children will be glad you did.
