6 Reasons to Try GMB and TRX Small Group Functional Training at Guelph Performance

May 29, 2024 Posted by Alana Gulka Exercises & Nutrition, Lifestyle

You’ve probably heard the term before, but what really is Functional Training? Simply put, Functional Strength refers to the body’s resiliency to complete tasks with resiliency against injury. Functional training is the OPPOSITE of sport-specific training.

Want to reduce the chances of falling in the shower, straining a muscle reaching into the back seat, or needing a walker when you’re 80? This is exactly what functional training is for! Are you looking to improve your overall performance in athletics? Also for you!

Functional exercises can help with everything from playing with your kids to improving your time in your next marathon and everything in between.

Many forms of functional training can be used alongside or instead of traditional strength training (think bench press, deadlift, clean and jerk). At Guelph Performance, our trainer, Vlad, offers specialized GMB (Gold Medal Bodies) and TRX (Total Resistance Exercises). GMB is a system of training using body weight movements in natural patterns that we don’t use enough in our sitting society — think animalistic bodyweight movement patterns. TRX is a suspension system that takes away some of the impact of exercise, allowing us to access stability and motion that we might not have been able to find!

Success Stories

Our clients have achieved incredible results. Here’s what they have to say:

  • Courtney: “Vlad really goes the extra mile for his clients and does his best to understand their individual needs and where they might need to make adjustments in their training. With Vlad’s help i was able to achieve things I didn’t think were possible for me!” 
  • Nia: “Vlad is phenomenal – thoughtful, thorough, and a great instructor. He developed a training plan that worked for both me and my training partner! We’re seeing and feeling big changes. The gym itself is awesome: quiet and clean.”

Here are six reasons why you should join us:

1. Improve Flexibility with GMB Training

GMB Training focuses on body control, strength, and mobility. This method enhances your range of motion, preventing injuries and improving overall flexibility. This will help avoid pulling a groin slipping on the ice carrying groceries, or skating to score in hockey, and everything in between.

2. Build Functional Strength

GMB and TRX training help you develop strength supporting daily activities and athletic performance. This style of training allows you to progress at your own pace, from your own start point towards your own goals.

3. Gain Better Body Control

GMB Training improves balance and coordination, giving you mastery over your movements. Leave being clumsy behind!

4. Enjoy a Total Body Workout

TRX Training uses suspension straps to engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, offering a comprehensive workout in a short amount of time. This is training for life, not a life of training.

5. Strengthen Your Core

Every TRX exercise requires core stabilization, which is the ability to withstand and control movement in the trunk while using arms and legs. This leads to a stronger midsection and improved overall fitness.

6. Train Through Injury Recovery 

Our trainer, Vlad, can communicate with our practitioners (RMT, AT, Chiro, PT) if you are receiving rehab to ensure that the training is appropriate for your stage of rehab. If you are getting treatment somewhere else, he can modify for that too! After all, Exercise is Rehab and Rehab is Exercise! 

What to Expect at Guelph Performance

  1. Small groups — 3-5 members at a time allow for continuous feedback
  2. Customized Program: We design a personalized workout plan for the members of the group
  3. Non-intimidating, low volume, quiet gym environment so you can focus on your training
