1. FREESTYLER™

3. Introduction to the FREESTYLER & FUNCTIONAL DYNAMICS The FREESTYLER is a modern exercise platform that makes very different and interesting workouts possibilities. The Freestyler has been extensively studied and researched for over 3 years and integrates the latest scientific achievements. The result is a highly methodical, systematic and logical exercise system.

4. This exercise system is unique because it combines progressive resistance with multi-axis movements to simulate natural human movements.

5. Because this device enables completely free and natural movements on all levels, we named it the FREESTYLER.

24. Everyday natural motion demands movement in all directions. The exercises that force us to make simple movements are less effective and less useful. In single-axis movements certain muscles may become strong but there is a lack of coordination. “ The key to functional exercise is integration. It’s about teaching all the muscles to work together rather than isolating them to work independently.“ (Roskopf, 2005) INTRODUCTION TO THE FUNCTIONAL DYNAMICS™

27. FUNCTIONAL TRAINING “ Integrated, multi-planar movements that involve joint acceleration, stabilization, and deceleration, with the intent of improving movement ability, core strength, and neuromuscular efficiency.” (Bryant, 2005) “ Functional training is training that stimulates our bodies to move in the way it is naturally engineered”(NASM) “ Movements or exercises that improve one’s ability to complete their ADLs with greater efficiency and effectiveness.” (ACE)

29. FUNCTIONAL TRAINING PRIMARY GOALS OF FUNCTIONAL TRAINING “ ..the primary goal of functional training is to transfer the improvements achieved in one movement to enhancing the performance of another movement by affecting the entire neuromuscular system.” “ In functional training, it is as critical to train the specific movement as it is to train the muscles involved in the movement. The brain, which controls muscular movement, thinks in terms of whole motions, not individual muscles.”

39. BASIC EXERCISES ON THE FREESTYLER Basic exercises on the Freestyler are mainly derived from single axis movements , combined movements according to functional anatomy. We consider this as basics for all further Functional dynamics multiaxis movement patterns. Exercises are organised according to body parts and movements of the joints.
