By improving the overall function of your body, boosting muscle strength and endurance, and developing muscle and body stability everyday activities can be completed with more ease. Compared to conventional training, the benefits of functional fitness tend to out-weigh everything else because it's actually targeting the movements we are doing every day.

some of the best benefits of functional fitness include the greater muscle memory. The more your body performs a particular movement or exercise, the faster and more responsive your body can repeat the movements in the future, This can be especially good for sports specific exercises.

By performing regular functional fitness exercises, you're not just building muscle and core strength but actually exercising the brain too - effectively boosting your brain's memory.

Despite the common misconceptions circulating that functional training only leads to bulking and can make you lose your flexibility, it's actually quite the opposite. As the range in motion of functional exercises are quite large, meaning you need to start and finish in position where your muscles are stretched, bulking is very hard to do. Whilst functional training does indeed work the muscles, intrusive and unflattering bulk of your current physique isn't part of its process. In terms of flexibility, functional training would actually help to increase it significantly.

One of the primary goals of functional training is to offer resistance. Implementing its exercises and programs works in boosting your body's functional strength by increasing overall flexibility and coordination. As your range of motion is enhanced, you'll find day-to-day activities become easier.

The exercises implemented through functional training use multiple muscles to enhance your strength and balance, effectively improving your overall posture. Most functional training exercises are not stabilized and require you to recruit other small muscle groups to help support the larger ones, which will help prevent over training one muscle group and giving incorrect posture. Being able to target specific muscles on a cable machine can also help prevent those imbalances in posture and prevent pain in some of the most common areas like the hips, lower back and shoulders.

With the use of strength and weight training in functional fitness, weight management can be easily maintained reducing the stress on your body and boosting mobility, balance and posture. Great posture is the foundation to all things, so using functional training routines will help in boosting the state of balance in your body enabling you to reach your full potential in activities throughout the day.

For those that suffer from regular back, muscle and joint pain functional training can be a super beneficial. Best known for bridging the gap between personal training and physical therapy, functional fitness is designed to restore your body back to the way it's designed to move. Because of this, chronic back, knee, neck and joint pain can all be significantly reduced by getting your body back to basics.

It's an ideal workout for everyday people wanting to move as comfortable as possible. Whether they stay away from exercise because of arthritis or chronic back and knee pain, the exercises used in functional training can make daily tasks that were once hard, much more possible.

For example: A person suffering from chronic back pain may find bending over to pick something up very difficult, but with functional training the body will soon adapt to this daily task making it easier for them to do.

The same way as functional fitness works in improving chronic back pain, muscular pain and joint pain, it's able to reduce the risk of injury too. Everyday movements can leave runners and sport enthusiasts withering in pain on a bad day, and this is why the exercises behind functional training are so important.

By mimicking everyday life movement patterns, your body is more likely able to cope with daily stresses. Functional training stands out from conventional training because of its way to reduce the risk of injury and stress to your body. When training in a functional manner, muscles aren't just strengthened but the surrounding ligaments too, which is the area that can often become injured.
