What is Corrective Exercise and what are its benefits?

Corrective Exercise is a specialized approach to exercise aimed at addressing and fixing movement patterns that are inefficient or imbalanced. These imbalances or inefficiencies can often lead to discomfort, pain, and an increased risk of injury. The methodology typically involves identifying the specific problem areas through a detailed assessment, and then developing a tailored exercise program to address these issues.

The benefits of Corrective Exercise include:

Reduced Pain and Discomfort: By targeting the root cause of pain, which often stems from improper movement patterns, corrective exercises can alleviate chronic pain and discomfort.
Improved Posture: Corrective exercises often focus on strengthening and stretching key muscle groups that are crucial for maintaining good posture.
Enhanced Performance: Athletes or individuals engaged in regular physical activity can see improvements in their performance due to the increased efficiency and balance in their movements.
Injury Prevention: By correcting imbalances and inefficient patterns, the risk of injuries related to overuse, strain, or improper technique is significantly reduced.
Increased Mobility and Flexibility: These exercises can improve joint mobility and flexibility, leading to a greater range of motion and ease of movement in daily activities.
Better Balance and Coordination: Corrective exercises often involve balance and proprioception training, which can enhance overall coordination and stability.

In summary, Corrective Exercise is beneficial not only for individuals recovering from injuries or dealing with chronic pain but also for those looking to improve their overall physical fitness and performance by ensuring their body moves in the most efficient and balanced way possible.

What is the After-Hours Membership?

The After-Hours Membership is complimentary to class members and training clients who have undergone an orientation to familiarize themselves with the equipment and who maintain the required status. This added feature allows members access to the facility outside of normal working hours. There is limited availability for After-Hours memberships to keep the studio from overcrowding and thus provide a more inviting and peaceful atmosphere for members to train in.

Why use Sandbells for training?

Traditional metal weights are rigid and can cause damage & injury when used with too much speed and intensity. Sandbells are designed to drop, throw, and slam; they are built to withstand even your toughest workout so you can push your limits & reach your goals. - We don’t exist in a static environment, so neither should our training.

Why use Resistance Bands for training?

Resistance bands are easy-to-use, extremely versatile, and powerfully effective.

Bands are a terrific way to strengthen and tone all the major muscle groups and can work as effectively as more traditional weights.
In many ways, bands put more tension on your muscles and work them longer during movements.
You can vary workouts on the fly by changing movements to challenge your muscles in diverse ways.
The variable resistance allows you to increase or decrease resistance simply by shortening or lengthening the band.

Working with resistance bands doesn’t just build muscle. It can also help melt away fat.

A study published in 2022 shows that resistance band training lowers body fat in people who are overweight better than other forms of training, including free weights and bodyweight exercises.
