Many people who are interested in learning martial arts or self-defense for the purpose of fitness believe they can’t do so because they lack the equipment to practice at home. Likewise, the use of large machinery for fitness purposes even at gyms and fitness clubs can be intimidating to some people and is not needed. This is why the concept of general physical preparedness training using minimal equipment in minimal time for maximum results has become increasingly popular among Americans looking to shape up and slim down.
Functional Fitness – Fitness for Everyone
Functional fitness training – the use of body weight exercises and small accessories used as tools building a better functional body and is a perfect fit for today’s fitness seekers. Some of the small tools used in functional fitness classes and at-home include:
-
Kettle bells
-
Sandbags
-
Suspension trainers
-
Medicine balls
-
Dumbbells
-
Resistance bands
Using a combination of core-strengthening exercises and cardio that can be done without treadmills or tracks means an effective, total-body workout – the ultimate goal for many people with limited time and various fitness goals.
By using functional fitness, people can simply get in better shape in just 20-30 minutes per workout a few times per week. Now, that fits the modern American lifestyle!
