functional training, what, how, why
With this post I set the goal of increasing awareness of a new frontier of fitness, attention, nobody has invented anything in case he discovered something that was at the origins of ' man, something essential for the high-level sport, the field of rehabilitation, but especially for those who like you want to stay healthy and enjoy the most. I'll try to explain what are the prerequisites for a workout, do you mean by feature, what is functional training, such as the aims, characteristics and the means.
INTRODUCTION
"to induce an improvement of an activity in the body, must be applied overload which will result in dosing intensity and frequency biological changes typical of the workout process, and then Prestatie and aesthetic improvement.
I ask myself a question: our body is assembled , (ie a set of many pieces independent of each other ..) or integrated (a set where the various components involved and influence each other)?
The top-level sport and the athletes themselves have already understood this concept for some time, an athlete is a wonderful integrated machine that can perform many actions at the same time, the result of a mental involvement, balance, strength, coordination, endurance, speed, and what is this if not a wonderful demonstration of FUNCTION '!
Then we put an instant classic by the training body builder, a typical example of assembly but not very functional, and try to better understand what
functional training.
The body was not born in nature to select and isolate the movement, completeness of the gesture has been for thousands of years our luck, the same sports and everyday life are made from fast movements, explosive, sudden changes of direction, rapid acceleration and deceleration that quickly, in short, our body uses many muscles simultaneously to move, the human machine goes trained as a single large scale if we want the best.
For functional training is defined and then a series of activities involving the whole body to order to increase strength and muscular endurance, balance and coordination in order to produce positive effects in everyday life by promoting the general welfare, and if the subject is an agonist to increase sports performance at the maximum on the basis of the discipline in which the person participates. The functional training has an integrated and holistic approach.
The characteristics typical of a functional training:
- induce perception, control, power and integration of the "core " (involving the muscles of the pelvis, the abdominal the lumbar and the diaphragmatic dome) are essential because the main movement to produce both effective and safe.
- The movement must be multi-planar , we have the ability to move forward, backward, right next to circled and then rotate, sfruttiamola!
- multi-articular movement, tries to collect something on the ground and you'll see that involvement.
- control body balance, then a useful "core" strong, but also a great ability to balance and proprioceptive (motor response consequent to a stimulus unbalancing). This check will be much faster as these skills will be developed.
Here we are means to :
your body! overload is all natural and free body exercises are great (pushup, pullup, squat, dip, etc ...) the use of kettlebells of the bands, medicine balls, tablets proprioceptive, dumbbells, barbells, vests weighted, platforms jump ropes, pull-up bars and dip bars for the use of Kinesis.
A clarification If you're afraid to lift weights because you think it makes you swell too much and you just want a little 'tone, then it is time to educate yourself a bit' more about muscle growth that is not so immediate, alas, the hypertrophy is a field in its own right! and repeat the order of functional training is to prepare the body to perform more effectively with daily activities or athletic exercises that integrate the strength and muscular endurance, external stimuli which encourage balance and coordination skills in order to create a body more ready and "intelligent."
The improvement will be a pleasant aesthetic effect of 'functional training.
We must reclaim our natural movements, those who as children allowed us to fall and get up quickly without thinking about what we were doing, gestures and feelings that only the completeness of the movement as a whole we can give!
