Aim. The aim of this paper is that functional training is intended to create exercises that emulate continuous movement: movements that usually use muscle synergies and develop in a combined way in planes and axes. Functional strength training is much more complex than training the strength of a muscle or muscle group: it requires a greater commitment to increase the connection between the nervous system and the muscles. Method. The method in which functional training uses complex movements involves an increase in strength, which in turn directly influences the quality of execution, so it is easier to move in everyday life. Results. The results is to made the goal of functional training is to ensure that the specific results obtained by training one movement can consequently improve the performance of another, acting on the entire nervous system! This is known as "transfer potential." In functional training, it is crucial to train the specific movement as well as the training of the muscles involved in the movement: the brain, which controls the movements of the muscles, thinks in terms of continuity, the whole movement, not the separate muscles. Conclusion. In conclusion mono-joint isolation exercises train muscles, not movements, therefore they are less suitable for a functional program instead, multi-joint exercises will be optimal. A knee bend, for example, has a high pulling potential compared to the lifting movement of a chair, which is not suitable, for example, for the abduction of a thigh. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
