    That said, I think 'Functional Training' should be about improving movements. For instance in boxing, these would be exercises that improve footwork, punching, and responsiveness. Using a bit of kit like elastic cords/bands, it can be set up to improve specific movements when used properly. This way a fighter's body can 'feel' which adjustments to make, rather than depending on the coach to constantly tell them which adjustments to make.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    Its the right idea Chris, but you do train muscle, for strength and alinement in conjunction with the CNS. Ill put some ideas up later.
