Arnold made raw power, roids and being a physical monster popular. In his prime, he was a beast. Now he has gone through heart surgeries and can not exercise as I'm sure he would like too. Shortly after, the fad of 'machine' workouts took the world by storm. They came out with a machine specifically designed for almost everything. And charged you an arm and a leg for each one! Then a mixture of machine and free weights was the must do exercise system. Next thing you know, circuit training was the ONLY way to get results, curves, Pilates, Bikram, resistance bands, P90x, Insanity and many many more. Including TRX and ViPer training.
Here is my beliefs and how I base working out. Change. Like life constantly throws different obstacles at you that forces you to adapt to the situation to overcome it. Working out, living a healthier life style, nutrition all need to be subject change to benefit an individual optimally. Like working out, if you strength train only but switch up exercises, rotation, days of the week, you only reap the benefits of strength training. Your body and the way it works becomes 1 dimensional. Same for CrossFit, yoga, Pilates etc. you become good at 1 type or specific form of exercise. That helps you in a limited fashion. Take an MMA fighter for instance. He works out in different types of martial arts, different forms of strength conditioning, resistance training, cardiovascular conditioning, stretching etc. He/she is well adapted for many different things life and sport can throw his/her way.
Their physiques look superior, their muscle endurance is greater and their bodies are taking in a healthier and more well rounded variety of nutrients. Would you take a Ferrari to get a tune up at Arco? No way. You'd go to a specialist. Someone who can maintain your Ferraris most optimal and 'healthiest' performance level.
Your body should be taken seriously and in the same fashion.
Yes I own my own gym and admit I am no expert in every form of exercise. There is a huge difference from being textbook smart and functional real life 'exercise' intelligence.
The way I like training people is to be functional and prepared for life and your everyday movements. To build a superior athlete and all around species of a normal everyday person. To do that my training adapts. We take the best. Not the fad but the BEST and combine them in a way that makes your body it's best.
We find the best trainers in their specialties and bring them in. We learn from each other. We build, constantly.
I had the privilege of hearing about the YokeBar. I had a greater privilege of participating in a YokeFit class with high school wrestlers, business women and a 50 year old coach. I saw how beneficial this style was to EVERYBODY and how it could possibly be the 'difference maker' from being a runner up, to a champion. I got my butt kicked in this workout. This was right after I rocked Tough Mudder and completed every obstacle first try. YokeFit handed me a beating I was not prepared for. It's a combination of proven exercises to make u faster, stronger (especially in those positions that normally cause injury) increase muscular endurance and stamina, push your cardio to a similar level of being in a fight. You use everything at once yet isolate the intended muscle group in that particular exercise. Mr. Locsin, the YokeBar creator is a walking example of how amazing this tool and form of exercise is. It changes. It increases. You see how strong you are getting and how much harder you can push yourself. It is for everybody.
I like being well rounded and physically and mentally able to do many things. To execute them without injury. To push my exercise to higher and tougher levels so that life in whole becomes easier.
Here at FitClub Bat Area, we get you physically and mentally prepared for the toughness that life, sport or hobby can throw at you.
