This starts with making sure that all of the club’s staff (training and non-training) understand the key points about the equipment and programming. That’s the starting point for communicating a clear message and generating word of mouth. Then it’s about using online tools to spread the word more widely. STEP 7: CONSTANT EVOLUTION TO REMAIN ATTRACTIVE AND COMPETITIVE. Offering the same experience for months on end can become tiresome and ultimately drive members into the door of a competitor. Boredom should not be an option. This is why regularly reviewing what you’re offering is so important, coupled of course with an evolving experience that maintains the excitement and engagement. www.searasports.com | [email protected] EXCLUSIVELY FROM FUNCTIONAL. 06 | FUNCTIONAL ESCAPE FITNESS | 07 FUNCTIONAL.

THE NEED FOR A CAPABLE, FUNCTIONING CORE. The core is the body’s hub, handling all of the forces going through it, from walking to striking a tennis ball. A strong core is therefore essential if the body is to manage forces and move freely. A UNIQUE TOOL FOR CORE TRAINING AND MOVEMENT DEVELOPMENT. Developed by a PhD physician specialising in the science of body movement and rehabilitation, the CMT is an incredibly precise way to target development in the core and wherever the user wants it the most. THE HIIT SPECIALIST. The CMT has proven itself as a superb tool for high intensity interval training. Moving the CMT fast and controlling the force in the Power Core takes huge effort. It’s why even just a minute of full-on CMT exercise leaves most people shocked at the work they are putting in – exactly what you’d expect in a HIIT session. We’re so pleased with the way it performs, we’ve integrated it alongside other functional training tools into our MOVE IT and BATTLE FIT group training programmes. Both of these are all about performing at massive intensity and the CMT enables participants to push themselves beyond their perceived limits. SPORTS-SPECIFIC TRAINING. REGISTERED PATENT DESIGN.

To maximise results, it’s essential that any instructor looking to implement the CMT into sessions with members or clients learns how to effectively use the equipment.
