What is Functional Patterns? Training For HUMANS

FP is physics applied to the human body, that focuses on building competency in the most fundamental movement patterns....
Standing, walking, running and throwing. (The First Four)
In order to gain the most practical movement variability. It leads to not only postural correction and pain reduction...but also increased athleticism, fitness, weight loss and muscle gain.

Lol - this video cracks me up. He stated lots of elite athletes and how they move in their sport, and those athletes spend time in the weight room, but none of them do “functional patterns” (not that I know of” yet have exceptional, sought after, ways to move… does anyone else not see the problem here?

[@OBMATT]

They stay in their echo chamber

[@brandonc79]

The movements actually do seem very useful, but you're 100% right for noticing that. I just finished explaining to someone in a comment how Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake, Tyson Gay all squatted 400 - 450+. They were certainly doing unilateral work with them l, but they were still doin em. I'd go further to say that most sprinters running sub 10 can probably squat a minimal 350 to 400 and utilize the exercise in training. Varying slight from 1/4 squats all the way to full.

[@slings7149]

You're completely missing the point. Watch the video again.

[@fluffyscruffy]

The video says "using these elite athletes as a reference point not the end product" - they have accomplished the highest feat of performance without FP, so the original comment is correct in pointing out the irony odf this preachy marketing. The visuals of FP being the cybertruck vs the horse only prooves that FP is trying to establish their credibility through marketing, which makes FP a product and nothing else.

[@Arturo_Fonseca]

exactly, and they state that the scienfic world is involved in some exercise conspiracy to keep people injured. Sports teams exclusively try to keep their athletes on the pitch. Why haven't they jumped on FP that claims they do this. Naudi, even though his a bit insane, has found a way to market to the fringes who are as mentally challenged as he is and is making bank. That's what FP is successful at.

Thank you Mike for the video. Very well put together. I'll be sharing this consistently moving forward!

[@jamiemattinson]

Great explanation here, FP is far superior to traditional/conventional training approaches. It has to far taken me out of a great deal of pain and helped me build more muscle mass than any previous method I tried. With other approaches in the past, all I ever saw in the realm of results was joint pain and a stagnant physique.

[@petrastoveken8663]

I buy into all of the FP approach, just not so much in the MFR, aka Foam rolling or trigger point release. There is lacking evidence that it helps, also my own experience. It only helps for a very short time afterwards.

[@michaeli6424]

You realize that early man maybe lived to 30 and 50 was really old. We have evolved past this to live much longer. I understand that these things are important but so is a strong core and muscle mass. Also we developed projectile weapons pretty fast because throwing was not as effective. Also I do believe we had to lift heavy things to build shelter. I could go on and on about early man the stupidity of using them as your base line vs modern people living healthy active lives past let’s say 80 or 100 with good cognitive function as well. How about variations in a species. Spider monkeys vs gorilla chimps and orangutans etc. I believe you might be trying to improve one piece of the fitness puzzle but as for a complete one stop solution. I don’t think so. 4:26

[@HeySpecimen]

I was a subscriber for a long time, the recent shorts I saw blew my mind! Instead of providing value, this channel is making shorts that suggest Kneesovertoesguy or yoga is hurtful or negative, deep squats are bad? I thought this was a joke, lost a subscriber for sure… 💩

[@TheRealitarian]

So, you "observe the best athletes", all of whom didn't do functional patterns to become the best. Isn't the logical conclusion that FP isn't required at any level to be a "best athlete"? Naudi is always bring up Barry Sanders, a guy who has never done one minute of FP (and prob did heaps of training that Naudi would call bullshit), as the pinnacle of human movement...doesn't that also speak to the idea that FP isn't any sort of requirement for moving well and being an amazing athlete? Lebron James?? Naudi has shit all over his squat videos (which are horrible to be fair)! Now he's an example for you guys? That's rich. And what if those athletes trained with traditional weightlifting/powerlifting/bodybuilding protocols? Wouldn't that also falsify Naudi's central claims that all of those protocols are inferior to FP? For how could we look at the best athletes doing other training protocols and then say "FP, being totally unrepresented in these athletes, is how one moves like the best athletes"? FP has literally put up not one olympian or top-level athlete ever. Dake was a beast before FP. FP didn't make him who he is...that was later in his career. But there is not one, from-the-ground-up-athlete, that's exclusively done FP their entire training career that's become an elite level athlete. Yet we're to believe that it's the best way to move like an athlete?

[@mainsourcery]

If average joes are doing traditional lifting, how come they’re not moving like Sanders, Bolt, etc? Never have there been results of structural changes from traditional lifting in relation to optimizing human movement.

[@jeffharris8617]

@@mainsourcery yeah good point. Original comment has a lot of fallacies in it. The athletes above are great because of how they move not how they train. The traditional training methods fail so many more times than they succeed

[@jeffharris8617]

Dake was about to have to take an early retirement before FP. His body was broken. It’s clear to see him overcome that after starting FP and to see his wrestling greatly improve as a result

[@mainsourcery]

@@jeffharris8617 yup. He also forgot to mention that these elite athletes are genetically gifted and succeed DESPITE the dysfunctional s&c/rehab protocols they’re told to adhere to. If FP is altering the way people, especially those who are not genetically gifted & have bad neurological conditions, adapt to stress, gravity & their environment, imagine what FP would do for an elite athlete. But FP prides itself on helping the less fortunate, while the rest of the industry harps on athletes who are already genetically gifted.

[@shahrahman7337]

Almost all pro athletes are people who naturally were able to move well, and this is in spite of doing traditional lifting, not because of it. If traditional lifting made them move that way, we would see traditional lifting making average joes move better, but it's not. Also, what you're saying doesn't make any sense. Even if pro athletes were able to be pros without the use of FP, that doesn't mean people don't stand to benefit from using FP. Pro athletes got to where they are mostly due to a natural ability. So yeah you dont need FP to be a pro, but that's only if you're already one of the top percentiles of genetically gifted athletes. Most people do not have that natural ability. So for most people, they need FP to improve their athleticism. And Dake was injured and about to retire before he started FP. FP prevented him from retiring, changed his game completely, he became better than he was before, and went to win world champions and olympic medals after. Also other pro athletes benefitted from FP, like Johnny Eblen who became Bellator world champion. Either way, athletes dont matter because people in way worse situations are able to benefit tremendously from FP, like regular joes, old people, and people with neurodegenerative diseases. So if they're getting benefit, it's obvious that athletes will benefit.

They require you to also change your instagram handle to their approved way along with giving them access. As for the “result”, they aren’t any different than what people get when they start exercising and changing their diets. They just cherry pick what to show.
