Why if I already Train Strength & "Functional Movements?"
Exercise is all made up let’s be honest the average human lifestyle currently does not prepare the body for the majority of exercises in the gym. This quote sums upt what you may see in an average fitness class or maybe an Xfit or OTF environment and importance or progression based prerequisite work.
“If you have a room full of 100 random people and you say the exercise for the day is overhead squats, the fact that you’re clearing 100 people randomly to do overhead squats says a lot about how well you understand prerequisites. … give me a random sample of 100 people, I’d say maybe 5 or 10 have what is necessary to do that safely.” – Dr. Andreo Spina

How is Kinstretch different from Yoga?
“Yoga Make you better at yoga” We’ve heard a lot however I slightly disagree. What I don’t disagree with at all is Kinstretch makes you better at everything. Instead of holding “poses” we find end rangesof motion within’ your workspace and load then with internal strength and train in that capacity you can handle without injury.

Kinstretch is preventative healthcare.
As Dr. Spina says “Force is the language of cells” and “If you do not use it, you lose it.”
The last major component that really helps us define Kinstretch is the preventive aspect. The truth is there is no such thing as injury prevention only injury mitigation. Kinstretch is designed to prepare for the inevitable.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic condition of the joints, affecting approximately 27 million Americans. The ever-growing research continues to credit strength training and daily movement as the best way to combat OA and many other common conditions.

Does Kinstretch use "functional movement?"
One of my least favorite phrases we hear in the fitness world now. Here we believe and train all ranges of motion and believe all movements are functional. When is the last time you tried opening a pickle jar using your deadlift set up?
