Going to a Functional Training gym is nicer because the coaches will by default know your name, they'll actively work with you. Show you what to do, how to do it and give feedback when you're doing the workout.

ALSO, suffering together has been proven to bond people. (There's a study I read recently that said you literally increase your pain threshold if you do High Intensity workouts in a group setting).

Practical Workshop coming up focusing on focus: which is at the tail end of both somatic practices, mindfullness, and fitness. So we’ll try the different tools and compare the sensations. You’ll get all the tools to continue a practice at home with what might feel like it works for you.

Monday 28/9 at 17:00-18:30 at CrossFit Sörnäinen
Link in bio, or if you comment FOCUS I’ll send you the link.

Do you think htat focus has been harder this year for you personally?

Learn Lead and Lag goals: lag goals are lagging behind as the result of work. Lead goals are the actions that take you there. The simplest goal is getting over the threshold of the gym, when talking about fitness and health. All else is easy after that. And 2-4 workouts per week, nay 2-4 times getting over the threshold of the gym, is sufficient to build permanent change, pshychologically (and physically).

Max is one of our strongest athletes... with 5 (!) levels already on Black and another 5 on Brown we're nudging up to coveted Brown and Black belts overall... This summer we got Purple II and Purple III ticked off. ✅✅

We may talk of brown and black here, but 💜 in and of itself is some serious feats of Fitness and Health. Keep in mind that out of some 350.000 registered users in the Level Method 81% are in the White, Yellow and Orange spectrum, and less than 1% have reached Black belt overall.

You are Max! We appreciate you!

Wanna welcome Susanna especially! We've recently finished the first overall levels, and got a good start for this summer and autumn! We hope you will love the workouts!

Anette as well, a warm welcome and a respectable start with Yellow II overall already from scratch. :)

Johannes is chipping away systematically and now got an overall of OII with increased strength.

Hector's new overall is a tiny step from Orange belt in YIII! Congrats ser! And Guillermo the same: shoutout for Yellow III!

Here's Aapo-appreciation! We got Purple III belt and then the awe-inspiring overall!

The last categories to go up to Brown were Kettlebell, Neurological and Core Endurance, and Running: a small universe in itself with grip strength, hip explosivity, aerobic capacity AND brain-body connection tested.

You've done good ser! We're proud of you!!!

Nobody choses to coach in order to take advantage of people. We’re at the gym because we love helping out. We want to make the world a little bit better with our work.

The Belts go from a well rounded beginner at White -> Yellow -> Orange (81% of all people in the system are White-Orange)
From there Blue Belt is no longer any Novice color. You've earned your stripes.
Purple Belt is even more serious.
Then Brown.
Then Black. (Less than 1% of all registered users are on Black overall)
After black there is the Red level.

So every time someone makes one of their categories hit red, we get them a separate Diploma, because it is an accomplishment well worth celebrating! In the last month we've had 5 Red Levels:

Sara on Squat Endurance
Carlos on Flexibility
Tea on Running AND Rowing
Coach Tuuri on Squat Endurance

Seven Bows to you all! /me bows
