GRIPR & Deck Dynamic Workout

Hello, welcome to back the workout the week. Today we got really fun one, it’s a movement preparation sequence with the GRIPR and the Deck.

This is a really great method of preparing a client for training, basically, it’s fun, it’s challenging, it’s a little bit different. It’s great for trainer-client engagement, and a really good way to switch people “on” mentally and physically. Okay, essentially, the GRIPR is a great tool, it’s a soft training tool to use for these type of workouts. And then, we’re actually gonna get the new Escape Deck in there as well, to integrate this to give you a little bit more work on balance, coordination, and reaction time.

The first rule, we’re gonna start playing with the games, okay, the games are going to stop playing with are nice and simple, your client, we’ve got Andy Phillips, the man himself, he’s gonna be the client for the day. He’s gonna start copying me and I’m gonna take him through a sequence of exercises with the GRIPR. Okay, we’re going to start off nice and easy just getting used to how the GRIPR works, this is just gonna get us used to work together, and then we’re just gonna start piecing together our movements, okay, and it’s great thing about this is you can take him, your client, through a variety of movement patterns, warming him up through different planes of motion, to the side, up across, to the side, up across and swap, up across, lovely stuff.

Okay, so nice and simple, you’ll be getting an idea for doing here, one arm change, into a clean and press, there’s that grip, overhead slams, okay, so by doing these exercises, we’re giving our client lots of things to think about, as we’re warming up, we’re not even thinking about the warm-up, we’re just moving. Okay.

Okay, thanks, what we’re gonna do now, is bring in the deck to this challenge, so with the Deck, we can vary the heights and vary the angles, which start to get the body thinking, and working a little bit harder as we’re moving. So, what we’re going to do here is a lateral shifting exercise, and catch the GRIPR on the outside. Off we go. Good stuff, same to the other side. Okay, so this is really focusing on loading through the frontal plane, just going to be a little bit quicker here for Andy, he’s moving pretty well.

Okay then we’ll go internal, so inside the leg, that’s it, and then we can also just also alter the height of the Deck, to give him a bit more of a reactive challenge here, okay, off we go. You almost caught me out there. Okay, excellent stuff, and then we can start to come up with some more plyometric movement, a bit more reactive again, he’s gonna jump on, he’s gonna jump off, GRIPR gonna go through, and up, and again, okay, so just having a bit of fun with our clients keeping them guessing, keeping them thinking about different things, not just the same old boring warm-up routine, is a really good way to fire up your clients, with them on, engage them into movement, and allow and have some fun with their warm-ups, rather than just doing the same old thing every time. Okay.

So play with the GRIPR, get the deck involved as well, and just start to come up with these little games, and routines, where you are working out together because it is an engaging factor between the two of us. It’s a really great way to start a training session.

So, there is your workout of the week, with the GRIPR, and the Escape Deck, I hope you enjoy that one, we’re looking forward to seeing you next time. — Head Trainer, Tommy Matthews, and Andy Phillips, Escape Fitness

Dynamic Training

Dynamic training is a series of exercise modalities involving movement within all anatomical planes of motion. When performing dynamic exercises the body is connecting, and relying on, all muscle groups to stabilize, generate power, force, and successfully accomplish each movement, and progressive movements. Moving through the sagittal plane, transverse plane, and frontal plane, the body can become very stable, strong, and conditioned. Dynamic training is a preferred style of training in personal training studios, boutique group training studios, and health clubs, gyms, and vertical market fitness facilities in the university, hotel, spa, and hospitality, resort, and private membership clubs.

The engaging nature of dynamic training invites both the exercise professional, coach, or trainer, and clients to explore human movement, movement efficiency, becoming stronger, more agile, and coordinated, explosive, and powerful. Dynamic training is an experience wherein each person learns a great deal about the body, the action of muscles during movement, and the results of the most efficient ways to exercise in order to become functionally fit, enjoy greater strength, speed and agility, coordination, balance, and physical conditioning. Dynamic training is trending, because of it’s engaging and contagiously competitive nature — however, it is not a fad. Dynamic training is a style of training that simply allows people to live the lifestyle they choose to live in. Be bold. Live in color. Try something new, and you may just be surprised how a simple change in your attitude, in your heart, allows you to embrace one of the most challenging, and rewarding exercise experiences of your life. This is our message to people who exercise everywhere. And, to personal trainers and exercise professionals, if you are not already employing dynamic training in your menu of services … count yourself among the irrelevant. You live in the past, the future is now. I’m interested to hear your thoughts, contact me using the form below to learn more.

Dynamic Training Equipment & Accessories

An additional bonus of dynamic training is that people use their body weight, and specific types of really fun exercise equipment and fitness accessories. Dynamic training equipment and accessories differ from traditional health club stationary equipment because the use of dynamic accessories allows a person to move freely, transport accessories through the fitness facility, or move the exercise session outdoors. The types of exercise equipment vary depending on the type of facility in which a person typically exercises. High-end dynamic training studios utilize gym rigs, otherwise known as multipurpose fitness rigs, that are designed to be used as group training stations allowing up to 12 people to exercise together at one time. These gym rigs range in quality and stability. We suggest that people research the manufacturers of the equipment they choose to use, as well as the exercise professionals who choose to equip their facilities. Beginning with the foundational gym rig, other types of exercise equipment, including extensions, and attachments are popular. Boxing heavy bags pull up bars, monkey bars, squat racks, and adjustable racks help people use this multipurpose dynamic training system for nearly any exercise modality.

Dynamic training accessories are really effective tools to use when training for physical conditioning, strength, speed, and agility, or simply maintaining peak physical fitness. These types of accessories range between weight plates, Olympic bars, and classic types of exercise equipment and accessories to more sophisticated types of dynamic training accessories. The greater the sophistication of the accessory the more training and practice a person must perform to properly use the accessory. Well prepared, and experienced, exercise professionals, personal trainers, and coaches specialize in using dynamic training equipment. Special clinics and training courses are taught to prepare people for using today’s top trending dynamic training accessories. Beginning with the Bulgarian bag, weighted bags, like the core bag, the GRIPR, a sand or steel shot bag, medicine balls (med balls), core trainers, discs and cones, speed and agility ladders, battle ropes, and a very large assortment of associated equipment that is specifically designed to allow a person to generate force, momentum, speed, and power, by using the body and movement patterns learned by repeating specific training.
