FUNCTIONAL

TRAINING Foundation first,

Why should you care?

The body functions primarily through “signals” and stimulations interpreted
by your Central Nervous System which send those to the peripheral nervous
system creating stimulation for skeletal muscle activation.

Any type of movement requires this system

to work properly and efficiently or the body
will eventually plateau.

Power lifting, body building, boot camps,

performance training and any usage of the
body need to have a foundation of skills to
practice and perfect to be consistently
successful.

Brain Functionality:
The Central Nervous System primarily controls
the voluntary body functions that we use every
day. To train this “muscle” you must look at the
various actions we have control over such as
vision, reaction, body control, verbal reaction,
coordination, recognition, reflex, and fast twitch “Build to perfect
movements. After understanding the desired skill

exercises can then be built to work on the
individual stimulations.

Body Functionality:
Intrinsic and extrinsic biomechanics;
what are those? Well intrinsic

land on greatness. Do the extra reading and
extra time to learn more, ask question and start

thinking because everyone has only one body to

work with their entire life so take the time to
know it.
