functionalstrength hashtag performance

The hashtag #functionalstrength on TikTok emphasizes exercises that enhance overall strength, mobility, and stability. It promotes workouts mimicking everyday movements, improving practical fitness, injury prevention, and overall health, engaging diverse audiences.

What in the heck is she doing now? 🤯 Low and behold, it’s called the Steinborn Lift. ❓I need details, what muscles does it target and what are its benefits❓ This lift is a testament to functional strength, balance, and coordination, targeting the quads, glutes, hamstrings, core, spinal erectors, and stabilizing muscles like the obliques and upper back. Its benefits include improved mobility, core stability, and total-body strength. ❓Who should do this and who should avoid doing this❓ This exercise is popular among strongman athletes and advanced lifters, making it an excellent challenge for those seeking a more advanced and demanding movement. This should be avoided by individuals with back, shoulder, or mobility issues, as well as those without prior lifting experience. ❓How can I do this as a beginner❓ Beginners should start with a PVC pipe, broomstick, or an unloaded barbell to focus on learning proper mechanics and building the flexibility and balance required for the movement. This progression ensures safety and prevents injury. ❓When should I incorporate this into my routine and how many sets and reps should I be doing❓ For those who are ready, this exercise can be incorporated into lower-body or full-body workout days as a primary or accessory movement. Beginners can aim for 3-4 sets of 5-8 reps with light implements, gradually progressing as form improves. ✨Wearing the @alphalete Olivia Sculpt Bra in Reign (S) Code ZAHRA and the @paragonfitwear Reluna Original Sculptseam Legging Earth (S) Code ZAHRAFIT 🙌🏼 #SteinbornLift #FunctionalStrength #BeginnerLiftingTips #MobilityTraining #StrengthAndStability #ProgressiveOverload #Athlete #StrongMan #StrongWoman #Gym

Looking to to improve your wrist and forearm strength? The seated overhead cable pull with a wrist twist is a highly effective exercise for strengthening the upper back, shoulders, and forearms while improving wrist mobility and grip strength. Performed seated, it reduces lower body involvement, allowing greater focus on the lats, traps, rear deltoids, and stabilizing muscles. ❓Who is this ideal for, and who should avoid this❓ This exercise is ideal for athletes, lifters, and those seeking functional upper body strength. However, individuals with wrist, shoulder, or lower back injuries should avoid it or consult a professional before attempting. ❓How many reps and sets❓ For optimal results, perform 3-4 sets of 10-12 controlled reps, using a moderate weight that allows smooth wrist rotation at the end of the pull. #SeatedCablePull #FunctionalStrength #WristMobility #UpperBodyWorkout #StrengthTraining #Forearms #Gym #Athlete #GymTok

Increasing the range of motion (ROM) in exercises like half-kneeling cable rows enhances muscle activation, flexibility, and functional strength. A full ROM works muscles through their entire length, improving both stretch and contraction phases while reducing injury risk. ❓What’s the point of adding a wrist twist and doing this in a half kneeling position❓ Adding a wrist twist activates your forearms, improves grip strength, and engages stabilizing muscles like the rotator cuff and core. The half-kneeling stance further challenges core stability and balance, making it a great full-body movement. ❓What muscles does this target❓ This exercise primarily targets the lats, rhomboids, trapezius, and biceps, with secondary engagement of the core, rotator cuff, and rear deltoids. ❓What does pulling quickly and going back slowly do❓ Pulling quickly activates fast-twitch fibers for strength, while a slow return increases time under tension for muscle growth and control. 🐺Wearing the @alphalete Everyday Core Legging (M) and Aura Strappy Longline Bra (S).

Back pain holding you back? The exercise everyone tells you to avoid might be the one you actually need. Seated Good Mornings are misunderstood. Avoiding them doesn’t fix your pain—it keeps your lower back weak and vulnerable. This exercise strengthens your lower back, glutes, and hamstrings while improving stability and flexibility. It’s a game-changer for anyone with back pain, limited mobility, or who wants to squat better. Keep in mind I am not a doctor and everyone’s situation is different. Stop avoiding strength. Start building it. Comment ‘GOODMORNING’ if you’re ready to add this to your routine and move pain-free. #seatedgoodmornings #lowbackpain #lowbackexercises #functionalstrength

Just wrapped up an amazing conversation on Mark Bell’s Power Project! We talked about why I’ve always believed Strongman training is for everyone. Whether you’re competing or just training to the best of your ability, this sport makes you better all around—stronger, more functional, and ready for anything life throws your way. @Mark Bell My goal? To still do everything a 20-year-old can do when I’m 80. 💪 If you train Strongman, you’re not just getting stronger—you’re developing a level of functionality that carries over to everything. Check out the full episode and let me know your thoughts! #PowerProject #NickBest #Strongman #FunctionalStrength #Longevity #StrengthTraining

🎄On the 4th day of Exercise, my PT gave to me… THE SUITCASE MARCH ⚪️Benefits of this exercise are endless: 🟢Single-leg stability 🟢Anti-sidebending core stability 🟢Strength development of obliques and lateral hips 🟢Increased bone density 🟢Motor coordination between foot and hip 🟢Back pain managemtn ⚪️I recommend starting with 3x45 second rounds at a relatively low weight to perfect the form before moving to higher weight/lower rep ranges. Work this into your routine 2x/week and assess results after 4 weeks of progression. (Less back pain? Stronger core? Better balance?) ⚪️Stay tuned for Day 5 tomorrow for a hamstring BURNER! (If you’re interested in a personalized training program with explanations of exercises like this, DM me and I can explain how it could work!) #physicaltherapist #physiotherapy #physio #physicaltherapy #fitness #fitnesstips #fit #fitnesstips #strengthexercises #strengthcoach #onlinestrengthcoach #onlinefitnesscoach #coreexercise #coreexercises #corestrength #core #carry #suitcasecarry #functionalstrength #functionalcoreexercise #functionalcore

These exercises are examples of what your physical therapy should look like in the final stages. Often, patients will feel good at this point and attempt to skip this final step. But, it is important to load the shoulder in this manner! #shoulderrehab #functionalstrength #physicaltherapy #stability

Core Synergy: Building True Stability from the Inside Out Most modern core exercises focus on surface-level strength, neglecting the intricate, integrated systems that create true stability. 🌟 By aligning the rib cage and pelvis, we tap into neurodevelopmental principles—how our bodies naturally learned movement patterns as babies—and build a solid foundation for dynamic strength. In this exercise, the kettlebell provides both load and feedback, helping reinforce rib cage and pelvis alignment. This alignment allows the diaphragm (your primary breathing muscle) to work synergistically with the serratus anterior to create proper intra-abdominal pressure and core stability. The serratus plays a key role in anchoring the rib cage and supporting thoracic mobility, which is critical for efficient breathing and shoulder function. Let’s break it down: The Deep Core: This includes the diaphragm, pelvic floor, transversus abdominis, posterior psoas, and multifidus. These muscles form the foundation of stability, coordinating breathing and intra-abdominal pressure to support movement. The Outer Core: This includes the obliques, rectus abdominis, erector spinae, and lats. These muscles provide dynamic strength and control during movement. When these systems work together, they create a harmonious, integrated pattern where breathing, stability, and movement are optimized. Without this integration, compensatory patterns (like excessive low back extension or rib flaring) can lead to dysfunction and pain. By focusing on rib cage-pelvis alignment and incorporating the serratus-diaphragm synergy, we build a core that functions as it’s meant to—supporting your body from the inside out. This is the foundation for efficient movement, injury prevention, and strength that carries over to real life. 🏋️‍♀️ Ready to reconnect and redefine your core?
