One of the hardest regions to train safely on the body is the neck. You’ll find that people either resort to using too much or not enough weight, failing to achieve substantial growth or functional improvement in their upper spine. We designed the @functioneck to be both safe and effective when it comes to loading the cranium during slow and corrective motions. And the first thing people say when they try it is, “Oh wow, I feel my obliques working.” This is because the exercises load the fascial

Our ancestors didn’t waste time seeing who could blow out their back the fastest by hauling logs on their shoulders. They were focused on survival—standing, walking, running, and throwing dominated their daily lives. Taking a squat to rest or moving things around at home? That was child’s play. And before you say, “Yeah, but our ancestors didn’t use pulley machines either,” wake up and realize it’s not about the tool—it’s about how your muscles fire during an exercise.

Most training methods focus on building flexibility or strength in isolation. We take a different approach by integrating the entire muscular and fascial system in movement. This helps your body learn to move as one coherent structure through every exercise and piece of equipment we use. This gives you better isolation in the areas that need it and the global integration that’s been missing from your training. When the upper and lower halves of your body work together, you build strength that ca

Functional Patterns is the ultimate form of compound movements. Our training incorporates motions that fire multiple muscles at the same time because that’s how your body moves in reality. Training in isolation is short-sided, since muscles in the body actually function as integrated chains. And the more you can integrate those chains of muscles when you workout, the higher the probability those muscles are going to function correctly whenever you decide to exercise or move around.

By • @functionalpatterns When most people train, they focus on working their muscles in isolation. This isn’t always a problem, but it leaves out how our muscles are meant to work together. Once you start moving dynamically, running, jumping, changing direction, you realize the body is not designed to move through independent parts. It is built to transfer force through connected chains of muscle, fascia, and bone. The @vectortrainer loads those chains together. It teaches your hips, spine, and
