Getting Serious About Functional Training

Getting Serious About Functional Training reviews the concepts underlying functional training and explains why they pose challenges for many traditional training methods. The DVD explores why "posture first" training helps address compensation and mobility issues before performance and offers a hands-on approach to integrated multi-joint training that identifies ideal movement speeds. The DVD also details how fitness professionals can develop functional core-training routines that they can use with their clients immediately.

Among the topics covered:

Integrated vs. isolated exercise
Core training
