WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL FITNESS?
Functional fitness is a popular form of exercise that allows you to target specific muscles while also building core strength. Functional Fitness focuses on body alignment, mobility, and strength through exercises that mimic movements you make each day outside of the gym. The goal of functional fitness is not just to get a great workout in the gym but for long term health. By practicing functional movements regularly we can train our bodies to not only perform movements with ease but to also feel good so that we can live life to the fullest!
