Our entire pitching and Functional Fitness staffs are preaching the Tom House way. This year we are planning to host this event around the first part of January. Specific details should be available before Thanksgiving. Come join a functional fitness class at RoundTripper this season. There is a misconception in the sports world today.
Athletes have two types of strength, functional strength and absolute strength.
Functional strength is strength in the connective tissue, ligaments and tendons and all the small muscle groups in the body. Absolute strength is the big muscle groups in the body, such as Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Chest and Back. An athlete's body rarely breaks down in the big muscle group but typically in the small muscle groups such as a torn rotator cuff or torn elbow ligament. Functional fitness protocols will bring hyperparity between functional strength and absolute strength, meaning the exercises will make the body balanced so there are no weak links. If you are interested in registering for a class you can get information at any RT location.
