CRUX |Core, Resistance, Ultimate X-over
The revolutionary staffs at Deft Touch Soccer Center and Par Performance are excited to bring to you the NEW concepts in overall fitness and LIFE altering motivation. The CRUX Fitness Training System will assist all participants in increased energy, feeling better, less aches and pains, and more importantly give you the tools to change your mind set on what healthy living is all about.
The CRUX system incubuses all muscle groups of the body with particular attention being placed on the CORE muscles.
The CORE is the area of the human body that all functions of human movement emanate. Training the muscles in the pelvis, abs, lower back, middle back, hips and entire trunk to work in harmony. The strength of this area is vital and is an important supporter and indicator of good health. A wide range of motions and movements are required to fully address this area and strengthen it.
RESISTANCE is force opposing another force, a force that opposes or slows down another force.
The objective of the CRUX system is simple, to provide a welcoming safe and most of all effective means of exercise. The system is challenging both physically and mentally.
The CRUX Fitness Training System promotes theses certain principles:
-Be here for yourself and others. The better you get the better we all get.
-View each rep as your work-out.
-Do this for you, be the person you want the ones you love to be.
-Make the work-out last all day, be consciously aware of your body all day.
-Eat well, drink lots of fluids, get rest to stay well, not just when you are sick.
-Learning occurs at the time you are most relaxed (maintain during down time).
-Positive mind programming, do not dwell on what you cannot do, do what you can do.
The CRUX Core Training System may be a new, buzz term in the fitness industry however, coaches and athletes have understood value of a balanced core for many years.
The core area consists of far more than just the abdominal muscles group. In fact CRUX training aims to target all muscles groups that stabilize the spine and pelvis. It is these main muscle groups that are critical for the transfer of energy from large to small body parts during everyday movements and sporting activities.
CRUX Training For Athletic Performance and Increased Productivity in Every Day LIFE:
The muscles of the torso and trunk act to stabilize the spine, shoulders and pelvis. From this solid, balanced base the limbs can be moved powerfully and under control. In fact before rapid movements of the extremities can take place, the central nervous system works to stabilize the spine in anticipation. The rate at which the core muscles stabilize the spine may directly effect on the power of limb movement.
CRUX Fitness Training System differs from many traditional weight training programs by working both the lower back and abdominals in unison. This principal is also applied to the upper and lower body. All movements incorporate the core in some way. Very few muscle groups are isolated. Instead the whole body works as a unit and CRUX training strive to replicate this.
What are the benefits of CRUX core training to the athlete, and non-athlete?
-Overall improvement and efficiency of movement
-Increased body control
-Improved power output from both the core musculature and peripheral muscles such as the shoulders, arms and legs
-Reduced risk of injury
-Improved stability and balance
-Increased athletic performance
CRUX Fitness Training System For Reducing Back Problems & Injuries:
Weak and/or poorly controlled core muscles groups have been associated with lower back pain. The back muscles are directly responsible for movements such as flexion and extension of the spine and rotation of the trunk.
Excessive or unbalanced shock on the spine may lead to back problems. This may be exaggerated by weak core muscles and lead to improper positioning of the spine or a forward tilt. In many CRUX exercises that use the back muscles, the abdominal muscles contract isometrically stabilizing the body. The stronger and more evenly balanced the core muscles are, the less the strain on the spine.
High Intensity CRUX Training with Resistance Bands:
High Intensity CRUX Training has become a proven resistant training method for improving strength ,endurance as well as the best way to maximize fat loss and increase metabolism. What we are trying to educate people on is how effective resistance band training is when it comes to developing high intensity interval training that emphasizes on cardiovascular enhancement as well as increasing strength.
The CRUX approached to using resistance bands is characterized by the following:
-Using only Multi-joint, Multi- muscle movements
-Workouts that are all interval time based and/or rep based sets
-Use of circuit based (multi-exercise) training vs. single exercises
-Workouts are short duration of 40-60 minutes
-Focuses is on Work load vs. Resistance
-Workload is enhanced as much by speed as with heavy loads
-Exercises are constantly tweaked to keep the body constantly adapting
-Workouts create high heart rates so muscles are not the only thing getting stronger
Why CRUX with resistance bands instead of traditional low intensity training?
CRUX does not breakdown muscle mass like long period endurance exercise does. Long slow cardio forces your body to get rid of metabolically (calorie burning) muscle mass. This is a real problem if you want to stay lean, strong and increase your body’s to ability to burn calories.
You can lose more subcutaneous fat with CRUX than with the standard slow cardio exercise.
Lose MORE FAT for every calorie burned during exercise!
CRUX encourages your body to burn more calories and fat even after the workout is completed. In short this means that after you finish your workout and on your way back to your home your body is burning fat stores right off of your body!
Our goal with Crux is to save you time! A complete high intensity interval training workout session can be completed in only 40-60 minutes! With everyone’s busy schedule it is tough to find the time to fit in a warm-up, weight training workout, an hour of cardio, a cool down with stretching. Crux provides all of these aspects in one single workout.
Ulitmate X-Over Training Method:
Ulitmate X-over is a method of training that combines the standard movements proven over time to benefit the human body and new innovative movements that will challenge the human body as well.
We have explored combined movements that our staff have been exposed to over the years to create the Ultimate X-Over portion of the CRUX training System.
Taking conditioning exercises from running, sprinting, soccer, football, gymnastics, track, weight-lifting, martial arts, MMA, physical labor and every day functional movements.
All of the movements are combined in an Up Down sequence. Meaning that you are switching from on the floor/ground exercises to a standing or squatting position. This challenges the body and mind throughout the session.
