What is Functional Fitness Experience?

What is Functional Fitness Experience?

We define Functional Fitness Experience as knowledgable and proficient with the following movements: 

-Olympic Lifts (Clean/Jerk/Snatch)

- Barbell Push Press

In addition to the Olympic Lifts, athletes should be comfortable performing the following movements at a high intensity:

• Box Jumps
• Wall Balls
• Russian & American Kettlebell Swings
• Pull Ups
• Push Ups
• Running
• Air Squats
• Rowing 
• Double Unders

 

I Workout - Isn't That Enough "Fitness Experience?!?"

"We fail at the margins of our experience." G.G.

Unfortunately not, We have very specific and often technical movements that we are doing with weights, usually quickly. We review the movements as a reminder to athletes, but we do not instruct beginners. We are working in groups in close proximity. Unexperienced athletes can harm themselves or surrounding athletes if they are not knowledgeable in the movements. Just because you can play kickball doesn't mean you should hop into a tackle football game.
