And The Results Are IN
Get Fit NH has been using the FMS (Functional Movement Screen) and Smart Group Training with our clients for a little over 9 months, and it has had a huge impact in our training outcomes. The purpose of this system is to see how each client moves to find the areas that have a potential for injury. While no one can predict the future, we know certain movements done incorrectly over a long period of time can and usually will cause injury.
The same holds true of your car. Your auto mechanic might warn you that your tires are wearing. He’d probably say something like, “If you do not rotate your tires this can lead to permanent tire damage” (think all those pieces of tire you often see scattered on the highway) so we have the tires rotated. Your dentist will also let you know, “If you don’t brush and floss your teeth daily, this could lead to tooth decay.” So we take time daily to brush and floss (you do that, right?)
Get Fit NH’s coaches want you to be safe, so together we do all we can to keep you safe while still training hard. That is where the FMS helps. After your screening your coach will give you a band to wear if necessary. Wear your band as you train so that you and your coaches know if you have movement patterns that currently need to be worked on so you can get, yes you know it – better.
Recently in Epsom we re-screened everyone. It was exciting to hear the hoots and hollers as bands were tossed into the “GOT BETTER” jar. They had listened to the warning, taken the time to do what it takes in training and outside of training, and seen incredible improvement. It was thrilling as a coach to see not just one band but sometimes two slip off a wrist and get tossed into the jar.
To channel a little Jerry McGuire “Help us help you.”
Because when you move better you can train better which help you get the results you want – faster.
And that’s what we all want!
Keep Getting Better!
