Functional Fitness, Strength & Conditioning

Coach

The FUNCTIONAL FITNESS plan was created for people who want to perform in life. With this program you will develop muscular strength and high-caliber conditioning without the advanced skill required in many other functional fitness programs. You will find the strength programming is based on scientific principles and the conditioning is a balanced combination of calisthenics, weightlifting, endurance, and speed and various loads and durations.

This isn't for professional exercisers, this is for the everyday athlete. Workouts often take less than an hour and will be highly intense, efficient, and effective.

COMPREHENSIVE PHYSICAL PREPAREDNESS

FUNCTIONAL FITNESS will make you the jack of all trades. It is a perfect balance of modalities, durations, and loads. All combinations of cardio, speed, calisthenics, and weightlifting are matched with short, moderate, long durations and light, moderate, heavy loads. This is truly a varied program designed to build strength and conditioning across a wide range of demands.

For the Everyday Athlete

The conditioning in FUNCTIONAL FITNESS is designed for the everyday athlete, not the professional exerciser. Highly technical movements like handstand walks won't be found here. All the movements are foundational in nature with high carry over to life outside of the gym.

Increase Peak Strength

Strength benefits all. Building peak strength, with the use of progressive overload, will be a focal point in the FUNCTIONAL FITNESS program.
