Functional Training

Unlock Your Potential

Functional Training

Modern life often limits us to keep repeating the same thing over and over again—sitting at a desk, scrolling on the phone or commuting long hours. Functional Training re-educates the body with multi-joint, real-life movement patterns that enhance strength, mobility and balance where you actually need them: lifting groceries, climbing stairs and playing with your kids.

In just a few sessions you can:
  • BUILD TOTAL-BODY STRENGTH – that transfers to everyday tasks
  • IMPROVE MOBILITY & POSTURE – to move freely and pain-free
  • BOOST METABOLIC CONDITIONING – for greater energy and endurance
  • LOWER INJURY RISK – through balanced muscle activation

What to expect in a session?

1hr training session

Master foundational patterns (squat, hinge, push, pull, carry) with real-time feedback.

Mobility & activation drills

Prime joints and stabilizers to improve range of motion and posture.

Loaded functional circuits

Combine strength and cardio using kettlebells, bands and body-weight for efficient metabolic conditioning.

Movement integration

Apply skills to daily tasks—lifting a box, getting up from the floor or rotating through sport-specific movements.

Personalized progression

Weekly increments in volume, complexity or loading keep you improving without burnout.

Why Train With Me?

  • TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY AND FUNCTIONALITY – In this type of training program I include a mix of exercises that will focus on movements that are relevant to daily activities, such as lifting, bending and reaching.
  • EVIDENCE-DRIVEN METHODS: – Programming blends functional patterns, corrective exercises and progressive overload. I can help you identify movement imbalances and develop exercises to correct them, leading to smoother and more efficient movement patterns.
  • RESULTS ARE VISIBLE & APPROACH FAST: – My workout program will translate to increased ease and comfort in daily tasks, making activities like carrying groceries or playing with children less strenuous. Clients report stronger lifts, taller posture and better coordination within 4-8 weeks.
  • IMPROVED BALANCE & STABILITY: – Functional training incorporates exercises that will challenge your balance and stability. Improving both will reduce the risk of falls and enhance your overall movement control.

Frequently Asked Questions ?

1. What is Functional Training?

Functional Training uses compound, multi-plane movements that mimic real-world activities—helping your body perform better in everyday life.

2. How is Functional Training different from traditional weight-lifting?

Instead of isolating muscles on machines, we train movement patterns (push, pull, hinge, squat, rotate, carry) to build integrated strength and coordination.

3. Why is Functional Training important?

Modern routines create imbalances and weaken stabilizers; functional work restores joint alignment, improves posture and reduces the risk of getting hurt/injured.

4. Do I need special equipment?

No. Resistance bands, kettlebells and body-weight are enough to create scalable challenges anywhere.

5. What benefits can I expect?

Expect stronger core engagement, improved mobility, better balance and a noticeable boost in daily energy and resilience.

6. Is Functional Training suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. Movements are regressed or progressed to match your current ability while building a solid foundation.

7. What should I have at home for training?

A small, dedicated workout space is ideal. While Functional Training is primarily body-weight-based, having light, medium, heavy dumbbells, resistance bands and a yoga mat will support future progress.

8. How long is each session?

Each session is approximately 60 minutes long.

9. Do you offer training for beginners?

Yes. I welcome all fitness levels from total beginners to seasoned athletes. Every session is personalized to your current ability and goals.

10. What should I wear or prepare for my session?

Wear comfortable workout clothing and have a small, open area available.

11. What is your cancellation policy?

I require 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations are subject to a fee.

12. What is your rate?

Rates start at $130 per session and will be confirmed during your initial consultation.

13. Are you a certified and insured in-home personal trainer?

Yes. I’ve been a certified NSCA-CPT since 2008 and am fully insured.
