When you walk into the R3BUILD ROOM, you may see some of the traditional elements of a weight room - such as dumbbells, benches, TRX, Bosu balls, and mats, but the exercises we do in here are far from ordinary. During this portion of the workout, you can expect to lift heavy weights, dumbbell-style. We never use barbells or machines, as they create balance. We want to create a little instability, forcing the use of every core and stabilizer muscle in your body to get the full benefits of the lift. We take traditional movements, such as shoulder presses, and add a bit of a challenge by standing on a Bosu ball for increased core engagement. Or, adding a dumbbell twist to your forward lunge to activate the core. Adding in these extra levels of difficulty to isolated movements will greatly improve your overall strength and performance. We also work to increase flexibility by doing full range, functional movements. When we’re doing exercises such as jump squats, we’ll remind you to work through your full range of motion to get the full benefits of the movement and increase flexibility. These approaches create a revolutionary workout method that uses your body weight and gravity as resistance to build strength, balance, coordination, flexibility, core, and joint stability. Overall, it’s a win-win for your body!
