Here at Team America Fitness we believe in a very holistic approach to health and fitness. The term holistic refers to a program that encompasses all aspects of fitness. We know from our many years of experience that if there is a hole in your program something will suffer. Flexibility is a major component of fitness that is neglected in most workout programs.

At Team America we make sure that every client understands that without a flexibility routine in their program they will be missing a large piece of the puzzle. Flexibility must be looked at as a continuum and must be treated as important as strength training. There are different types of stretching and a different time in the workout to do each type.

First there is self-myofascial release (foam rolling), which we have every client do before his or her workout begins. Foam rolling works like acupressure to break down knots (adhesions) and scar tissue, it also warms the tissue that is to be stretched.

Next there is static stretching to elongate muscle tissue that is in a shortened state. This is where the client holds the stretch for 20-30 seconds to actually change the muscle length. Lastly there is active and dynamic stretching; these are forms of stretching to stretch the muscle through movement to enhance performance. Come learn from the best trainers in the country how to design a flexibility routine that is customized just for you!
