Exploring the Functional Fitness Continuum defines functional training and explains how such training can effectively be applied to the clients of health/ fitness professionals. The DVD also looks at the impact of working out on unstable surfaces (versus stable surfaces), as well as discusses whether performing singlejoint (versus multi-joint) exercises has value from a functional perspective. In addition, the DVD details the role that power has on functional fitness.
Among the topics covered:
• What is functional fitness?
• The principle of specificity
• Are machines functional?
• Stable vs. unstable surfaces
• Multi-joint vs. single joint
• The power factor
• Future research: active resistance training-unstable resistance or unstable surface?
