Group barbell training innovation a fitness ‘game changer’

Leading Sydney-based group fitness trainer Mark Moon has set out to change the delivery of group barbell training with the launch of STRENGTH® Full-Body Workout.

With over 20 years of training experience, Moon is bringing scientifically proven resistance training principles into the group fitness studio in a progressive loading, multi-set format. STRENGTH ® educates instructors and class participants on the importance of varied planes of movement under load, as well as the importance of constant variation in exercise selection and intensities.

With Moon aware of the current popularity of functional training and high-intensity interval training (HIIT), STRENGTH® Full-Body Workouts’ strategically crafted formula covers multiple aspects of functional and HIIT principles, with five essential components of a balanced and effective training program. These include mobility, endurance, strength, agility and recovery.

He explains “it never made sense to me as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor why I wouldn’t use the exact same principles in the group fitness studio as I would while training myself or my clients.

“I believed there needed to be a bridge between group fitness classes and weight floor training, so for this reason I created STRENGTH ® Full-Body Workout.”

With variability a key aspect of functional strength, each workout release is updated on a quarterly basis using only licence free music.

In addition, the unique point of difference with STRENGTH ® is that all of the programming used in each release can be easily delivered using any other bridge-free music.

Moon adds that when this is combined “with the ability to easily adapt the exercise selection and workout intensity, STRENGTH ® Full-Body Workout becomes a game-changer in the group fitness market.”

Program creator Moon and Master Trainer Shannon Cleary will be running workshops throughout the year.
