Functional Movement Is Everything & This Is Why

This is a quick overview video explaining the reason I always come back to functional movement. In the coming weeks I will release a video of each of the 7 functional movement patterns in more detail that includes 10-15 ways you can enhance each pattern. Make sure you read the detailed article about this in the link below

Several times in the video I mention that strength is not as valuable to your body as efficient movement is. Training strength at the expense of movement is something I see a lot in gyms and especially in sports. There is several things wrong with strength training using the body building method or the origin and insertion muscle approach. I learned this the hard way many years ago when I was using these methods but not really helping people to move better. And it is not just strength training that ignores this principle as many who take up Pilates and various other exercise methods focus solely on muscles at the expense of how they move.
Very, very rarely to muscles work in complete isolation or anywhere close to it. When we move some muscles contract, others stretch and elongate to while some muscles provide stability, and all of this is done within a split second without you having to think about it. This is what is known as a pattern of movement and these patterns are like groups of movements linked together in a big chunk of information. The chunk of information is known as a motor program (like software on a computer). These motor programs link many movements together all at once to complete a specific task. When you train against this principle by using isolated exercises that do not require this "chunking" you are basically making the system slower, inefficient and dumb! The brain does not understand or recognize how to use any of this information for movement.

Functional training on the other hand is the exact opposite, and trains the brain and nervous system to enhance these motor programs, a bit like uploading new software to a computer. The brain recognizes these patterns and when your practice it and find ways to do it better than before, it is stored and used as an "automatic program" later when the situation arises that you need it.
