Description
Maximise your performance in sport and everyday life with four fundamental movements
What’s the best way to improve physical performance? The fitness industry offers countless methods that claim to do just that, but none can serve as a one-size-fits-all solution for everyone.
With ‘Freestyle’, former professional gymnast and current CrossFit athlete Carl Paoli presents a fully customisable programme that can be adapted to a wide variety of fitness goals. Readers learn interactively how their bodies move in three-dimensional space and cope in changing environments. Armed with this knowledge and just four basic movements, each linked to specific purposes, Paoli helps trainees maximise their performance in everyday life and in any sport.
Freestyle is a practical handbook for further developing our universal human movement patterns, regardless of any specific sporting discipline. It fosters a new awareness of human movement, as well as the ability to personalise any training programme to make it work for one’s own goals.
