Animal Flow Bodyweight Conditioning
/Why an Animal Flow Workout Is Ideal for Total Body Conditioning?
Bodyweight training is a great solution for home workouts, requiring no equipment, and a small space. Fixed loads provide the greatest resistance for the upper body and core, with volume, tempo, complexity and base of support perfect alternative variables to provide progressive overload, and continued progress. Enter Animal Flow, a modality I have been programming for over a decade. Its the perfect blend of total body, ground-based, bodyweight conditioning, blending elements of mobility, stability, endurance, and power. Its draws from the best practices of martial arts, yoga, gymnastics, and break dancing. Scalable for all levels, with programing applications for movement prep, active rest, conditioning, and cool downs.
