balance + stability
Ability to maintain center of mass, resist unwanted weight shifting and hold sturdy joint positions. The more stable a joint, the more effective and efficient we move.
core strength + stability
Ability to stabilize and brace, which is the foundation of all subsequent motion. Develop support for the spinal column in order to more efficiently and safely.
Proprioception + Coordination
Spatial awareness between yourself and objects—fine motor skills to carry out a given task. An important component to injury prevention.
Strength
Coordination training with appropriate resistance to handle body weight, project and implement, move or resist movement of another object, or resist gravity and optimize ground reaction force.
Endurance + conditioning
Improve cardiovascular function and/or metabolic function improving one’s ability to perform. Often results in improved body composition and reduces the risk of developing lifestyle related disease.
Hypertrophy
Enhancing muscle growth, resulting in the associated increase of lean muscle mass, and the development of muscle tone.
Speed/Quickness
Decreasing movement time between distances, greatly enhancing reaction and response time.
Power
Maximizing movement intensity. The ability to apply maximum force very quickly. Think of it as combining force and speed.
agility
Enhancing ones ability to rapidly change direction in response to a stimulus. Controlling body position to accelerate, decelerate and minimize loss of speed during movement.
Flexibility + Mobility
Enhances the ability of a muscle or limb to engage full range of motion. Leads to more productive and safer movement execution.
BODY COMPOSITION
Changing the proportion of fat and fat free mass in the body, resulting in desired changes in physical appearance and overall health.
