Here is an excellent functional fitness routine using hand weights, stability ball and yoga mat. Notice the total body engagement as the core is totally engaged throughout the exercise routine, with particular emphasis on an upper body work out. An important aspect of functional training is its focus on “core” muscle conditioning; Core muscle conditioning simply refers to the improvement of muscle groups located in the torso area of your body.
A Stability Ball is known by many different names depending on geography and manufacturer; it is often referred to as a Swiss Ball, an Exercise Ball, a Gym Ball, a Gymnastic Ball, and a Fit Ball, to name the most common aliases.
