Functional Training Exercises

Why are functional exercises the best work-out?

Functional training exercises are designed to enhance strength, balance, coordination, and movement patterns used in daily life or sports, focusing on multi-joint, full-body movements.

Structuring a Functional Training Routine:

• Frequency: 2-3 full-body sessions per week.
• Sets/Reps: 1-3 sets of 8-12 repetitions per exercise; planks held 20-60 seconds.
• Warm-Up: 5-10 minutes of dynamic stretches, arm circles, and light movements.
• Progression: Increase weight, reps, or complexity gradually; adjust single-leg or unstable variations to advance skill and balance.
• Sample Beginner Full-Body Session: Squats, Push-Ups, Step-Ups, Bear Crawls, Plank
