These exercises improve functional strength.Functional training increases coordination, balance, posture and flexibility. Functional exercises emphasise a wide range of motions, and each move makes you start and finish in a position where your muscles are working in their natural range. Resistance plus flexibility produces mobility.There are seven basic movements the human body can perform and all other exercises are merely variations of these seven: Pull, Push, Squat, Lunge, Hinge, Rotation and Gait.
