Functional Training

Functional training is a classification of exercise which involves training the body for the activities performed in daily life.    

This type of training focuses on compound movement patterns that involve multiple muscle groups and joints working together. 

Functional means we duplicate daily movements like bending, twisting, lifting, loading, pushing, pulling, and squatting.
