MAXIM fitness guru, Alexa, takes a look at functional muscle and how it can make you look good and perform better...
ALEXA TOWERSEY
MUSCLE BOUND

When I first moved to W Sydney I remember asking a reputable trainer what he meant by functional fitness. After clarifying that he was referring to "big, multi-joint movements" he went on to give Burpee Box Jumps as a prime example, which I guess would be if you went to a supermarket and performed a burpee before jumping on your trolley to get something off the top shelf. I don't know about you, but I haven't had to do that just yet.
